There are the voices of the wood-dwellers, not songs alone, but calls and utterances of many kinds from birds; cries and scolding of squirrels, who have a répertoire astonishing to those who do not know them; squawks and squeals of little animals more often heard than seen; and, not least, the battle-cries of the winged hosts "who come with songs to greet you" wherever and whenever you may appear.
Those restless wood-dwellers, that never sleep, were sending startling gruesome calls to each other. Bats were flapping and whirling and darting hither and thither; the gliding serpent making quick rustle amid the dry, crisp leaves, and over all sounded the murmur of the great pine trees, telling their mystic secrets to the night.
Deathgrip! ho! wood-dwellers grey and black, at them, my children!" The wolves heard; they were few and they were sorry to see, with weariness and wounds, but still they were fierce.
