That
's
it
!
Art
pots
.
Well
,
I
turned
at
the
top
step
and
swung
round
,
plucked
one
out
of
a
pile
and
smashed
it
on
his
silly
head
as
he
came
at
me
.
The
whole
pile
of
pots
went
headlong
,
and
I
heard
shouting
and
footsteps
running
from
all
parts
.
I
made
a
mad
rush
for
the
refreshment
place
,
and
there
was
a
man
in
white
like
a
man
cook
,
who
took
up
the
chase
.
I
made
one
last
desperate
turn
and
found
myself
among
lamps
and
ironmongery
.
I
went
behind
the
counter
of
this
,
and
waited
for
my
cook
,
and
as
he
bolted
in
at
the
head
of
the
chase
,
I
doubled
him
up
with
a
lamp
.
Down
he
went
,
and
I
crouched
down
behind
the
counter
and
began
whipping
off
my
clothes
as
fast
as
I
could
.
Coat
,
jacket
,
trousers
,
shoes
were
all
right
,
but
a
lambswool
vest
fits
a
man
like
a
skin
.
I
heard
more
men
coming
,
my
cook
was
lying
quiet
on
the
other
side
of
the
counter
,
stunned
or
scared
speechless
,
and
I
had
to
make
another
dash
for
it
,
like
a
rabbit
hunted
out
of
a
wood-pile
.

"
'
This
way
,
policeman
!
'
I
heard
someone
shouting
.
I
found
myself
in
my
bedstead
storeroom
again
,
and
at
the
end
of
a
wilderness
of
wardrobes
.

I
rushed
among
them
,
went
flat
,
got
rid
of
my
vest
after
infinite
wriggling
,
and
stood
a
free
man
again
,
panting
and
scared
,
as
the
policeman
and
three
of
the
shopmen
came
round
the
corner
.
They
made
a
rush
for
the
vest
and
pants
,
and
collared
the
trousers
.
'
He
's
dropping
his
plunder
,
'
said
one
of
the
young
men
.
'
He
must
be
somewhere
here
.
'
885
"
But
they
did
not
find
me
all
the
same
.
886
"
I
stood
watching
them
hunt
for
me
for
a
time
,
and
cursing
my
ill-luck
in
losing
the
clothes
.
Then
I
went
into
the
refreshment-room
,
drank
a
little
milk
I
found
there
,
and
sat
down
by
the
fire
to
consider
my
position
.
887
"
In
a
little
while
two
assistants
came
in
and
began
to
talk
over
the
business
very
excitedly
and
like
the
fools
they
were
.
I
heard
a
magnified
account
of
my
depredations
,
and
other
speculations
as
to
my
whereabouts
.
Then
I
fell
to
scheming
again
.
The
insurmountable
difficulty
of
the
place
,
especially
now
it
was
alarmed
,
was
to
get
any
plunder
out
of
it
.
I
went
down
into
the
warehouse
to
see
if
there
was
any
chance
of
packing
and
addressing
a
parcel
,
but
I
could
not
understand
the
system
of
checking
.
About
eleven
o'clock
,
the
snow
having
thawed
as
it
fell
,
and
the
day
being
finer
and
a
little
warmer
than
the
previous
one
,
I
decided
that
the
Emporium
was
hopeless
,
and
went
out
again
,
exasperated
at
my
want
of
success
,
with
only
the
vaguest
plans
of
action
in
my
mind
.

"
But
you
begin
now
to
realise
,
"
said
the
Invisible
Man
,
"
the
full
disadvantage
of
my
condition
.
I
had
no
shelter
--
no
covering
--
to
get
clothing
was
to
forego
all
my
advantage
,
to
make
myself
a
strange
and
terrible
thing
.
I
was
fasting
;
for
to
eat
,
to
fill
myself
with
unassimilated
matter
,
would
be
to
become
grotesquely
visible
again
.
"
889
"
I
never
thought
of
that
,
"
said
Kemp
.
890
"
Nor
had
I.
And
the
snow
had
warned
me
of
other
dangers
.
I
could
not
go
abroad
in
snow
--
it
would
settle
on
me
and
expose
me
.
Rain
,
too
,
would
make
me
a
watery
outline
,
a
glistening
surface
of
a
man
--
a
bubble
.
And
fog
--
I
should
be
like
a
fainter
bubble
in
a
fog
,
a
surface
,
a
greasy
glimmer
of
humanity
.
Moreover
,
as
I
went
abroad
--
in
the
London
air
--
I
gathered
dirt
about
my
ankles
,
floating
smuts
and
dust
upon
my
skin
.
I
did
not
know
how
long
it
would
be
before
I
should
become
visible
from
that
cause
also
.
But
I
saw
clearly
it
could
not
be
for
long
.
