CONTENTS
II: IN THE SHELTER OF THE CREEK
ILLUSTRATIONS
A wild chase was going on in the depths, and where it passed the rushes bowed their sheaves.
With a hiss it curves its neck and turns the foil upwards, snapping and biting at its tormentors.
She snaps eagerly at the nearest “worm,” but it escapes her by adroitly curling up.
