Down and down they carried him, till they reached the lowest level — the adit, where the waters of the earth drained out of the mine in a dark rushing stream, stained red by the tin ore washing down in it.

The Buccas didn’t stop for a minute, but waded into the rushing water, and carried Thomas along until they were at the outfall, where the adit broke out of the cliff face, and spilled all the waters into the sea.

On the very brink they put him down, with his head spinning, and there he stood, with the cliff towering above him, and plunging below him, and the sea spread out below. A gull came winging by him, and he could see a boat far out.
