It was against my principles, but I find that principles have no real force except when one is well fed…. IT WAS AGAINST MY PRINCIPLES BUT I FIND THAT PRINCIPLES HAVE NO REAL FORCE EXCEPT WHERE ONE IS WELL FED
ome other country before the trouble should begin; but it was not to be. About an hour after sunup, as I was riding through a flowery plain where thousands of animals were grazing, slumbering, or playing with each other, according to their wont, all of a sudden they broke into a tempest of frightful noises, and in one moment the plain was in a frantic commotion and every beast was destroying its neighbor. I knew what it meant—Eve had eaten that fruit, and death was come into the world…. The tigers ate my horse, paying no attention when I ordered them to desist, and they would even have eaten me if I had stayed—which I didn’t, but went away in much haste…. I found this place, outside the Park, and was fairly comfortable for a few days, but she has found me out. Found me out, and has named the place Tonawanda—says it looks like that. In fact, I was not sorry she came, for there are but meagre pickings here, and she brought some of those apples. I was obliged to eat them, I was so hungry.  CLEAR OUT OF THE PARK AND HIDE IN SOME OTHER COUNTRY BEFORE THE TROUBLE SHOULD BEGIN BUT IT WAS NOT TO BE ABOUT AN HOUR AFTER SUNUP AS I WAS RIDING THROUGH A FLOWERY PLAIN WHERE THOUSANDS OF ANIMALS WERE GRAZING SLUMBERING OR PLAYING WITH EACH OTHER ACCORDING TO THEIR WONT ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY BROKE INTO A TEMPEST OF FRIGHTFUL NOISES AND IN ONE MOMENT THE PLAIN WAS OF FRANTIC COMMOTION AND EVERY BEAST WAS DESTROYING ITS NEIGHBOR I KNEW WHAT IT MEANT EVE HAD EATEN THAT FRUIT AND DEATH WAS COME INTO THE WORLD THE TIGERS ATE MY HORSE PAYING NO ATTENTION WHEN I ORDERED THEM TO DESIST AND THEY WOULD HAVE EATEN ME IF I HAD STAYED WHICH I DIDN'T BUT WENT AWAY IN MUCH HASTE I FOUND THIS PLACE OUTSIDE THE PARK AND WAS FAIRLY COMFORTABLE FOR A FEW DAYS BUT SHE HAS FOUND ME OUT FOUND ME OUT AND HAS NAMED THE PLACE TONAWANDA SAYS IT LOOKS LIKE THAT IN FACT I WAS NOT SORRY SHE CAME FOR THERE ARE BUT MEAGRE PICKINGS HERE AND SHE BROUGHT SOME OF THOSE APPLES I WAS OBLIGED TO EAT THEM I WAS SO HUNGRY
