1 "You couldn't light them," said Ralph.
2 All at once they were aware of the evening as the end of light and warmth.
3 The whole space was walled with dark aromatic bushes, and was a bowl of heat and light.
4 With the fading of the light the riotous colors died and the heat and urgency cooled away.
5 He turned over, holding his nose, and a golden light danced and shattered just over his face.
6 Out of this face stared two light blue eyes, frustrated now, and turning, or ready to turn, to anger.
7 Ralph lifted the cream and pink shell to his knees and a sudden breeze scattered light over the platform.
8 These stood or leaned or reclined against the light and their green feathers were a hundred feet up in the air.
9 The bushes were dark evergreen and aromatic and the many buds were waxen green and folded up against the light.
10 The simple statement, unbacked by any proof but the weight of Ralph's new authority, brought light and happiness.
11 The air moved a little faster and became a light wind, so that leeward and windward side were clearly differentiated.
12 He stood now, warped out of the perpendicular by the fierce light of publicity, and he bored into the coarse grass with one toe.
13 When his party was about ten yards from the platform he shouted an order and they halted, gasping, sweating, swaying in the fierce light.
14 Once more, amid the breeze, the shouting, the slanting sunlight on the high mountain, was shed that glamour, that strange invisible light of friendship, adventure, and content.
15 Swearing, he turned off the trail and pushed his way through until the forest opened a little and instead of bald trunks supporting a dark roof there were light grey trunks and crowns of feathery palm.
16 Their only guide, apart from the brown ground and occasional flashes of light through the foliage, was the tendency of slope: whether this hole, laced as it was with the cables of creeper, stood higher than that.
17 Since they had not so far to go for light the creepers had woven a great mat that hung at the side of an open space in the jungle; for here a patch of rock came close to the surface and would not allow more than little plants and ferns to grow.
