Manti, rudely awakened, was pouring its population through its doors in streams. Shouts, hoarse, inquisitive, drifted to Trevison's ears. Lights blazed up, flickering from windows like giant fireflies. Doors slammed, dogs were barking, men were running. Trevison laughed vibrantly as he ran.
Physical soundness with weak intellect is often the athletic field of superstitions innumerable. Intellectual greed in an unsound body may breed the direst fears of life. A decayed soul is always a House of Fear. The ideal of human existence is The white life in the sound mind in the vibrantly whole body.

I shall have you punished for this." The other laughed lowly and vibrantly. "That's your affair if you dare! You say a word about this visit and I'll feed your scoundrelly old carcass to the coyotes!
