Instead, I made up my mind to set off in the opposite direction, north, and to advance at a double march until I should reach the woody border, which looked to present shelter not only from the southern apparitions, but also from the shielded underworld of the grasses, in which also dwelt the mysterious sense of fear and predestined deja vu. INSTEAD I MADE UP MY MIND TO SET OFF IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION NORTH AND TO ADVANCE AT A DOUBLE MARCH UNTIL I SHOULD REACH THE WOODY BORDER WHICH LOOKED TO PRESENT SHELTER NOT ONLY FROM THE SOUTHERN APPARITIONS BUT ALSO FROM THE SHIELDED UNDERWORLD OF THE GRASSES IN WHICH ALSO DWELT THE MYSTERIOUS SENSE OF FEAR AND PREDESTINED DEJAHU
 that was merely a guess, for in the distance I could only make out several dark forms rising out of the grassland like trees, or possibly buildings, one of them being a great deal taller than the others, with a spherical shape on top that only faintly resembled a tree's crown. If it was indeed a tree, it was the largest that I have ever seen, for it looked to be upwards of 800 feet tall. My mental warning bells were ringing quite loudly, and I endeavored to silence them by extreme exertions of the will, but they would not be subdued. I assumed that they were not at all correct, much like the fearful expectancy some have while swimming in the ocean, out of sight of all land, of being attacked by an enormous leviathan of the deep. As unfounded as the fear is, it places one into a frenzy of dubious thoughts that inspire equally frantic and anarchist actions. Because of this, I thought that my ideas were naught but superstitious fancies, yet try as I might, I could not rid myself of them. THOUGH THAT WAS MERELY A GUESS FOR IN THE DISTANCE I COULD ONLY MAKE OUT SEVERAL DARK FORMS RISING OUT OF THE GRASS LANDS LIKE TREES OR POSSIBLY BUILDINGS ONE OF THEM BEING A GREAT DEAL TALLER THAN THE OTHERS WITH A SPHERICAL SHAPE ON TOP THAT ONLY FAINTLY RESEMBLED A TREE'S CROWN IF IT WAS INDEED A TREE IT WAS THE LARGEST THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN FOR IT LOOKED TO BE UPWARDS OF EIGHT HUNDRED FEET TALL MY MENTAL WARNING BELLS WERE RINGING QUITE LOUDLY AND I ENDEAVOURED TO SILENCE THEM BY EXTREME EXERTIONS OF THE WILL BUT THEY WOULD NOT BE SUBDUED I ASSUMED THAT THEY WERE NOT AT ALL CORRECT MUCH LIKE THE FEARFUL EXPECTANCY SOME HAVE WHILE SWIMMING IN THE OCEAN OUT OF SIGHT OF ALL LAND OF BEING ATTACKED BY AN ENORMOUS LEVIATHAN OF THE DEEP AS UNFOUNDED AS THE FEAR IS IT PLACES ONE INTO A FRENZY OF DUBIOUS THOUGHTS THAT INSPIRE EQUALLY FRANTIC AND ANARCHISTIC ACTIONS BECAUSE OF THIS I THOUGHT THAT MY IDEAS WERE NAUGHT BUT SUPERSTITIOUS FANCIES YET TRY AS I MIGHT I COULD NOT RID MYSELF OF THEM
