It has been ascertained, that when one of the spores falls upon the body of a fly, it begins to germinate, and sends out a process which bores its way through the fly's skin; this, having reached the interior cavities of its body, gives off the minute floating corpuscles which are the earliest stage of the Empusa.
But I am not really interested in eggs not, at least, in any eggs but birds' eggs or should not have been, if I had not read The Encyclopædia Britannica. The sight of a fly's egg if the fly lays an egg fills me with disgust and frogs' eggs attract me only with the fascination of repulsion. What one likes about the birds is that they lay such pretty eggs.
Mysie never thought, however, about the situation or its difficulties, she simply followed the moment's call of kindness to Dolores, and, when it was possible, followed her own inclinations, and enjoyed Fly's lively society. And Dolores was certainly softening and improving. A word to Mrs.
The schoolmistress said, in a rather mischievous way, that she was afraid some minds or souls would be a little crowded, if they took in the Rocky Mountains or the Atlantic. Have you ever read the little book called "The Stars and the Earth?" said I. Have you seen the Declaration of Independence photographed in a surface that a fly's foot would cover?
With its apparatus of spokes, the Grey Fly's grub informs us of the dangerous nature of its functions: when working upon a corpse, it runs the risk of drowning. How is that? Remember the grubs of the greenbottle, fed on hard-boiled white of egg. The dish suits them; only, by the action of their pepsin, it becomes so fluid that they die submerged.
A distant disciple of the maggot's biographer, I look at the problem in a light which Redi never dreamt of. Any flesh of one of the higher animals suits the fly's family. Will it be the same if the food supplied be of a lower organism and consist of fish, for instance, of frog, mollusk, insect, centipede?
The Tarasconian muezzin gathered himself up for the effort during a space, and then, raising his arms, he set to chanting in a very shrill voice: "La Allah il Allah! Mahomet is an old humbug! The Orient, the Koran, bashaws, lions, Moorish beauties they are all not worth a fly's skip! There is nothing left but gammoners. Long live Tarascon!"
She felt like a fly on the wall of some abysmal depth only without the fly's powers of adhesion. Very carefully she twisted her body sideways, intending to retrace her steps, but in an instant the sight of the surging waters miles and miles below, as it seemed sent her crouching to the ground. She could not go back!
It then became the fly's turn. He was to get up and fly about in the window, so as to recover himself a little; then she was to catch him again, and roll him softly all along the window-sill, as she had done before. It was plain that the cat knew the rules of her game perfectly well, and enjoyed it keenly. It was equally plain that the fly could not make head or tail of what it was all about.
'Oh no, mamma. Only we are so mixed up we can't get up, called out Mysie. 'Is this arm you or me? exclaimed Phyllis, following up the joke. 'Come, sort yourselves, ladies and gentlemen, said Lord Rotherwood. 'What's this, a Fly's wing?
