But now they draw off.
Lumb feels a reprieve, a lightening
Though the cattle continue to mill round and press closer
As if still multiplying out of the earth itself.
They are stripping their throats with terror-clamour
But they leave him his space.
He kneels up under the rain.
He shouts to the men.
He tells them who he is, he asks who they are
And what is happening.
What has he done and what do they want?
His voice struggles small in the grievous uproar of the
animals
Which now surge towards him as if helplessly tilted, with
sprawling legs,
And now as helplessly away from him
Like cattle on a foundering ship among overhanging and
crumbling cliffs of surge.
