"
The
same
with
savages
,
"
said
Lord
John
,
cutting
away
at
the
beef
.
"
I
ve
seen
them
buryin
a
chief
up
the
Aruwimi
River
,
and
they
ate
a
hippo
that
must
have
weighed
as
much
as
a
tribe
.
There
are
some
of
them
down
New
Guinea
way
that
eat
the
late
-
lamented
himself
,
just
by
way
of
a
last
tidy
up
.
Well
,
of
all
the
funeral
feasts
on
this
earth
,
I
suppose
the
one
we
are
takin
is
the
queerest
.
"
352
"
The
strange
thing
is
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Challenger
,
"
that
I
find
it
impossible
to
feel
grief
for
those
who
are
gone
.
There
are
my
father
and
mother
at
Bedford
.
353
I
know
that
they
are
dead
,
and
yet
in
this
tremendous
universal
tragedy
I
can
feel
no
sharp
sorrow
for
any
individuals
,
even
for
them
.

"
And
my
old
mother
in
her
cottage
in
Ireland
,
"
said
I
.
"
I
can
see
her
in
my
mind
s
eye
,
with
her
shawl
and
her
lace
cap
,
lying
back
with
closed
eyes
in
the
old
high
-
backed
chair
near
the
window
,
her
glasses
and
her
book
beside
her
.
Why
should
I
mourn
her
?
She
has
passed
and
I
am
passing
,
and
I
may
be
nearer
her
in
some
other
life
than
England
is
to
Ireland
.
Yet
I
grieve
to
think
that
that
dear
body
is
no
more
.
"
355
"
As
to
the
body
,
"
remarked
Challenger
,
"
we
do
not
mourn
over
the
parings
of
our
nails
nor
the
cut
locks
of
our
hair
,
though
they
were
once
part
of
ourselves
.
Neither
does
a
one
-
legged
man
yearn
sentimentally
over
his
missing
member
.
The
physical
body
has
rather
been
a
source
of
pain
and
fatigue
to
us
.
It
is
the
constant
index
of
our
limitations
.
Why
then
should
we
worry
about
its
detachment
from
our
psychical
selves
?
"
356
"
If
they
can
indeed
be
detached
,
"
Summerlee
grumbled
.
"
But
,
anyhow
,
universal
death
is
dreadful
.
"
357
"
As
I
have
already
explained
,
"
said
Challenger
,
"
a
universal
death
must
in
its
nature
be
far
less
terrible
than
a
isolated
one
.

"
Same
in
a
battle
,
"
remarked
Lord
John
.
"
If
you
saw
a
single
man
lying
on
that
floor
with
his
chest
knocked
in
and
a
hole
in
his
face
it
would
turn
you
sick
.
But
I
ve
seen
ten
thousand
on
their
backs
in
the
Soudan
,
and
it
gave
me
no
such
feelin
,
for
when
you
are
makin
history
the
life
of
any
man
is
too
small
a
thing
to
worry
over
.
359
When
a
thousand
million
pass
over
together
,
same
as
happened
to
-
day
,
you
can
t
pick
your
own
partic
lar
out
of
the
crowd
.
"

"
I
wish
it
were
well
over
with
us
,
"
said
the
lady
wistfully
.
"
Oh
,
George
,
I
am
so
frightened
.
"
