Notes
"An
engulfing
roar
, a
sweeping
tremendous
commotion
of
air
, and a
dreadful
blackness
settled
down
upon
him.
Paul
waited
curiously
,
fearfully
for
something
to
happen
.
Nothing
transpired
right
away
except
a
seeping
of
sand
down
over
the
rock
.
It
soon
made
the
coat
sag
down
with
slow
increasing
weight
.
Paul
felt
the and
run
in
little
streams
from the
coat
,
down
upon
his
legs
and
around
his
back
. He
felt
the
space
between
his
back
and the
stone
fill
with
sand
. The
time
came
when
he had to
slant
the
coat
and
shake
it
to
relieve
himself
of a
burden
tiresome
to
uphold
. He
found
the
pockets
had to be
emptied
.
Finally
when
he had
exhausted
the
air
under
scarf
he was
forced
to
lift
it
. What
little
light
remained
filtered
through
a
yellow
medium
.
Above
and
all
around
the
fiends
of the
air
were
unleashed
and
shrieking
.
Ina
twinkling
Paul's
eyes
and
lungs
took
in
flying
sand
.
Making
hast
to
pull
the
scarf
down
he was
hard
put
to
it
wipe
the
sand
out
of his
eyes
. At
length
the
tears
flowed
copiously
,
washing
it
away
.
Meanwhile
, he had
coughed
and
sneezed
, and
otherwise
labored
with the
weighted
air
. His
breast
heaved
. He
could
not
inhale
enough
oxygen
.
Realization
came
to
Paul
then, and
cold
sweat
poured
out
of his
pores
. The
danger
of
becoming
smothered
seemed
great
at the
moment
.
Though
he
nearly
strangled
breathing
through
the
silk
scarf
he
managed
to
get
enough
air
to
live
on. The
dry
musty
odor
of the
earth
clogged
his
nostrils
until
he
could
no
longer
smell
. He
became
aware
of
stinging
eyes
and
smarting
lips
from the
particles
of
allkali
[sic]
with
which
the
air
was
impregnated
.
All
these
sensations
were
augmented
by the
shrieking
wind
until
Paul
felt
them
insupportable
. IN what
seemed
a
very
short
while
the
sane
piled
up
so
high
about
him that he would
soon
have been
buried
alive
. He
kept
scraping
it
away
with his
hands
. This
state
wore
on
until
Paul
suffered
horribly
.
Several
times
he was on the
verge
of
collapse
. But he
fought
with
all
his will and
instinct
to
hold
onto his
consciousness
.
When
he
seemed
utterly
spent
there
came
a
slacking
in the
storm.
