Darker and darker grew the night, and on and on sped the Gump through the black heavens. The travelers could not even see one another, and an oppressive silence settled down upon them. DARKER AND DARKER GREW THE NIGHT AND ON AND ON SPED THE GUMP THROUGH THE BLACK HEAVENS THE TRAVELLERS COULD NOT EVEN SEE ONE ANOTHER AND AN OPPRESSIVE SILENCE SETTLED DOWN UPON THEM
d the Pumpkinhead; “and this fact overwhelms me with grief. For I had intended wishing that my head would never spoil.” “Nonsense!” said the Scarecrow, sharply. “If we could use the pills at all we would make far better wishes than that.” “I do not see how anything could be better,” protested poor Jack. “If you were liable to spoil at any time you could understand my anxiety.” “For my part,” said the Tin Woodman, “I sympathize with you in every respect. But since we cannot count seventeen by twos, sympathy is all you are liable to get.” By this time it had become quite dark, and the voyagers found above them a cloudy sky, through which the rays of the moon could not penetrate. The Gump flew steadily on, and for some reason the huge sofa-body rocked more and more dizzily every hour. The Woggle-Bug declared he was sea-sick; and Tip was also pale and somewhat distressed. But the others clung to the backs of the sofas and did not seem to mind the motion as long as they were not tipped out. S THEN THE PILLS ARE OF NO USE TO US WAILED THE PUMPKINHEAD AND THIS FACT OVERWHELMS ME WITH GRIEF FOR I HAD INTENDED WISHING THAT MY HEAD WOULD NEVER SPOIL NONSENSE SAID THE SCARECROW SHARPLY IF WE COULD USE THE PILLS AT ALL WE WOULD MAKE FAR BETTER WISHES THAN THAT I DO NOT SAY ANYTHING COULD BE BETTER PROTESTED POOR JACK IF YOU WERE LIABLE TO SPOIL AT ANY TIME YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND MY ANXIETY FOR MY PART SAID THE TIN WOODMAN I SYMPATHIZE WITH YOU IN EVERY RESPECT BUT SINCE WE CANNOT COUNT SEVENTEEN BY TWOS SYMPATHY IS ALL YOU ARE LIABLE TO GET BY THIS TIME IT HAD BECOME QUITE DARK AND THE VOYAGERS FOUND ABOVE THEM A CLOUDY SKY THROUGH WHICH THE RAYS OF THE MOON COULD NOT PENETRATE THE GUMP FLEW STEADILY ON AND FOR SOME REASON THE HUGE SOFA BODY ROCKED MORE AND MORE DIZZILY EVERY HOUR THE WOGGLE BUG DECLARED HE WAS SEASICK AND TIP WAS ALSO PALE AND SOMEWHAT DISTRESSED BUT THE OTHERS CLUNG TO THE BACKS OF THE SOFAS AND DID NOT SEEM TO MIND THE MOTION AS LONG AS THEY WERE NOT TIPPED OUT
