As we lay there expectantly I found my vigil occasionally mixed with half formed dreams, from which the uneasy notions of the cat across my feet would rouse me. These dreams were not wholesome, but horribly like the one I had. The night before I again saw the twilight grotto and the swine herd, with his unmentionable fungus beasts swallowing and filth, and as I looked at these things they seemed nearer and more distinct, so distinct that I could almost observe their features. Then I did observe the flappy creatures of one of them, and await with such a scream that cat startled up whilst Captain Norris, who had not slept left considerably. Norris might have left more or perhaps less had he known what it was that made me scream. But I did not remember myself till later. Ultimate horror often paralyzed his memory in a merciful way.
