"Stirring, dear sir? I told you it was dangerous to move; I have saved you so far by telling you to keep still–saved you to see more sights and to listen to me. If you had moved, they would have been at you long ago. Don't worry, they won't hurt you. They didn't hurt the servants–it was the seeing that made the poor devils scream so. My pets are not pretty, for they come out of places where esthetic standards are–very different. Disintegration is quite painless, I assure you–but I want you to see them. I almost saw them, but I knew how to stop.
