I looked at little Weena sleeping beside me, her face white and starlike under the stars, and forthwith dismissed the thought. 'Through that long night I held my mind off the Morlocks as well as I could, and whiled away the time by trying to fancy I could find signs of the old constellations in the new confusion. The sky kept very clear, except for a hazy cloud or so. No doubt I dozed at times.

"Hallo, Sam, are you there?" called out Herbert, while yet a considerable distance off. "Yes. What makes you so late?" was the impatient response and question.
"You have the floor, ma'am. What does this gun-play business mean?" Through the tears her angry eyes flashed starlike. "I sha'n't tell you," she flamed.
