The child's heart stopped beating.
His frontier training told him that
all that had gone before, even the
tragedy which had darkened the
afternoon, was as nothing compared
with this new and awful danger. In
a paroxysm of terror he tried to stop
with all his small
strength to turn him aside toward
the main., to chock
plunge into the very anus of the
enemy. But for the first time the
horse paid attention neither to the
beloved voice nor to the tiny hands
pulling so desperately upon the
reins.

to the horizon, where gathering
