I grasped my camp-bed, rather by instinct than by choice, and, holding it desperately under my arm, took to my heels. It was a long distance to the bottom of the clover-field, and the swift iron followed me remorselessly. At one moment, when a shell burst full in my face, half blinding me, I felt weak to faintness, but still I ran.
