Answer
This was a terrifying mystery, why creatures he loved should kill one another
He could not understand it, and so he tried, with success, to forget it
Calum flung himself upon the deer, clasped it round the neck and tried to comfort it. Terrified more than ever, it dragged him about with it in its mortal agony. Its blood came off onto his face and hands
It was a small wooden doll naked, with a comical red cheeked face: it had one leg missing
Answer
For Calum the tree-top was high enough; in it he was as indigenous as squirrel or bird
Calum, demoralised as always by hatred, had cowered against the hut, hiding his face
Calum no longer was one of the beaters; he too was a deer hunted by remorseless men. Moaning and gasping, he fled after them, with no hope of saving them from slaughter
His arms were loose and dangled in macabre gestures of supplication. Though he smiled, he was dead
