Beware the Dog : Roald Dahl [8 of 32]

• As he fell he opened his eyes, because he knew that he must not pass out before he had pulled the cord. On one side he saw the sun;
• on the other he saw the whiteness of the clouds, and as he fell, as he somersaulted in the air, the white clouds chased the sun and
• the sun chased the clouds. They chased each other in a small circle; they ran faster and faster, and there was the sun and the clouds and
• the clouds and the sun, and the clouds came nearer until suddenly there was no longer any sun, but only a great whiteness.
• The whole world was white, and there was nothing in it. It was so white that sometimes it looked black,
• and after a time it was either white or black, but mostly it was white. He watched it as it turned from white to black,
• and then back to white again, and the white stayed for a long time, but the black lasted only for a few seconds.
