He peered over at the writhing blackness that jerked convulsively with the jerking nerves. It grew quieter. There were small twitches from the mass that still looked vaguely【C1】______the shape of a small animal.
It came【C2】______his mind that he could shoot it and end its pain; and he raised the gun. Then he lowered【C3】______again. The buck could no longer feel;its fighting was a mechanical protest of the nerves. But it was not that which made him【C4】______the gun. It was a swelling feeling of rage and misery and protest that【C5】______itself in the thought: if I had not come it【C6】______like this, so why should I interfere? All over the bush things like this happen;they happen all the time;this is how life goes on, by living things dying in anguish. I can’t stop it. There is nothing I can do.
He was glad that the buck was unconscious and had gone past suffering【C7】______he did not have to make a decision to kill it. At his feet, now,【C8】______ants trickling back with pink fragments in their mouths, and there was fresh acid smell in his nose. He sternly controlled the【C9】______convulsing muscles of his empty stomach, and reminded himself: the ants must eat too.
The shape had grown small. Now it looked like nothing recognizable. He did not know how long it was【C10】______he saw the blackness thin, and bits of white showed through, shining in the sun — yes, there was the sun just up, glowing over the rocks. Why, the whole thing could not have taken longer【C11】______a few minutes.
He strode forward, crushing ants with each step, and brushing them【C12】______his clothes till he stood above the skeleton. It was clean-picked. It might have been lying there for years,【C13】______on the white bone there were pink fragments of flesh. About the bones ants were ebbing away, their pincers【C14】______meat.
The boy looked at them big black ugly insects.【C15】______were standing and gazing up at him with small glittering eyes.
"Go away!" he said to the ants very coldly. "I am not【C16】______you not just yet, at any rate. Go away. "And he fancied that the ants turned and went away.
He bent over the bones and touched the sockets in the skull: that was where the eyes were, he thought incredulously,【C17】______the liquid dark eyes of a buck.
That morning, perhaps an hour ago, this small creature had been stepping【C18】______through the bush, feeling the chill on its skin even as he himself had done, exhilarated by it. Proudly stepping the earth,【C19】______a pretty white tail, it had sniffed the cold morning air. Walking like kings and conquerors it had moved freely through this bush, where each blade of grass grew for it【C20】______and where the river ran pure sparkling water for it to drink.
【C9】
