1 He saw the headless body of the sow and jumped in time.
2 Jack was on top of the sow, stabbing downward with his knife.
3 Presently he stood up, holding the dripping sow's head in his hands.
4 The sow collapsed under them and they were heavy and fulfilled upon her.
5 Even if he shut his eyes the sow's head still remained like an after-image.
6 Here, struck down by the heat, the sow fell and the hunters hurled themselves at her.
7 A little apart from the rest, sunk in deep maternal bliss, lay the largest sow of the lot.
8 Fifteen yards from the drove Jack stopped, and his arm, straightening, pointed at the sow.
9 The sow gave a gasping squeal and staggered up, with two spears sticking in her fat flank.
10 They surrounded the covert but the sow got away with the sting of another spear in her flank.
11 Behind them on the grass the headless and paunched body of a sow lay where they had dropped it.
12 The boys shouted and rushed forward, the piglets scattered and the sow burst the advancing line and went crashing away through the forest.
13 Then he started work on the sow and paunched her, lugging out the hot bags of colored guts, pushing them into a pile on the rock while the others watched him.
14 The afternoon wore on, hazy and dreadful with damp heat; the sow staggered her way ahead of them, bleeding and mad, and the hunters followed, wedded to her in lust, excited by the long chase and the dropped blood.
