Behind them was the sound of clashing and entangled hips， and the rumble of collapsing buildings. Overhead was he great patch of lurid light on the roof of the Underworld. head was the mysterious glow， which did not seem to row any bigger. From the same direction came a continual ubbub of shouts， screams， cat.calls， laughter， squeals， and ellowings； and fireworks of all sorts rose in the dark air. o one could guess what they meant. Nearer to them， the ity was partly lit up by the red glow， and partly by the very ifferent light of the dreary Gnome lamps. But there were any places where neither of these lights fell， and those laces were jet black. And in and out of those places the hapes of Earthmen were darting and slipping all the time， ways with their eyes fixed on the travellers， always trying o keep out of sight themselves. There were big faces and ttle faces， huge eyes like fishes‘ eyes and little eyes like ears’. There were feathers and bristles， horns and tusks， oses like whipcord， and chins so long that they looked ke beards. Every now and then a group of them would get oo big or come too near. Then the Prince would brandish is sword and make a show of charging them. And the reatures， with all manner of hootings， squeakings， and uckings， would dive away into the darkness.
