Burroughs, Edgar Rice

"Tarzan Of The Apes"


? ? ? ? Rapidly he moved his hands and feet in an attempt to scramble upward, and, possibly more by chance than design, he fell into the stroke that a dog uses when swimming, so that within a few seconds his nose was above water and he found that he could keep it there by continuing his strokes, and also make progress through the water.


? ? ? ? He was much surprised and pleased with this new acquirement which had been so suddenly thrust upon him, but he had no time for thinking much upon it.


? ? ? ? He was now swimming parallel to the bank and there he saw the cruel beast that would have seized him crouching upon the still form of his little playmate.


? ? ? ? The lioness was intently watching Tarzan, evidently expecting him to return to shore, but this the boy had no intention of doing.


? ? ? ? Instead he raised his voice in the call of distress common to his tribe, adding to it the warning which would prevent would-be rescuers from running into the clutches of Sabor.
