But Mr. and Mrs. Cane, their little girl Lucy and their farmhands are fictitious watership down book pdf free download bear no intentional resemblance to any persons known to me, living or dead.
Acknowledgements I acknowledge with gratitude the help I have received not only from my family but also from my friends Reg Sones and Hal Summers, who read the book before publication and made valuable suggestions.
I also watership down book pdf free download to thank warmly Mrs. Margaret Watership down book pdf free download and Miss Miriam Hobbs, who took pains with the typing and helped me very much.
I am indebted, for a knowledge of rabbits and their ways, to Mr. Lockley's remarkable book, The Private Life of the Rabbit. Anyone who wishes to know more about the migrations of yearlings, about pressing chin glands, chewing pellets, the effects of over-crowding in warrens, the phenomenon of re- absorption of fertilized embryos, the capacity of buck rabbits to fight stoats, watership down book pdf free download, or any other features of Lapine life, should refer to that definitive work.
PART I The Journey 1. The Notice Board CHORUS: Why do you cry out thus, unless at some vision of horror? CASSANDRA: The house reeks of death and dripping blood. CHORUS: How so? CASSANDRA: The stench is like a breath from the tomb. Aeschylus, Agamemnon The primroses were over. On the other side of the fence, watership down book pdf free download, the upper part of the field was full of rabbit holes.
In places the grass was gone altogether and everywhere there were clusters of dry droppings, through which nothing but the ragwort would grow. A hundred yards away, at the bottom of the slope, ran the brook, no more than three feet wide, half choked with kingcups, watercress and blue brooklime. The cart track crossed by a brick culvert and climbed the opposite slope to a five- barred gate in the thorn hedge. The gate led into the lane, watership down book pdf free download.
The May sunset was red in clouds, and there was still half an hour to twilight. The dry slope was dotted with rabbits -- some nibbling at the thin grass near their holes, others pushing further down to look for dandelions or watership down book pdf free download a cowslip that the rest had missed.
Here and there one sat upright on an ant heap and looked about, with ears erect and nose in the wind. But a blackbird, singing undisturbed on the outskirts of the wood, showed that there was nothing alarming there, and in the other direction, along the brook, all was plain to be seen, empty and quiet. The warren was at peace. At the top of the bank, close to the wild cherry where the blackbird sang, was a little group of holes almost hidden by brambles. In the green half-light, watership down book pdf free download, at the mouth of one of these holes, two rabbits were sitting together side by side.
At length, the larger of the two came out, slipped along the bank under cover of the brambles and so down into the ditch and up into the field.
A few moments later the other followed. The first rabbit stopped in a sunny patch and scratched his ear with rapid movements of his hind leg. Although he was a yearling and still below full weight, he had not the harassed look of most "outskirters" -- that is, the rank and file of ordinary rabbits in their first year who, lacking either aristocratic parentage or unusual size and strength, get sat on by their elders and live as best they can -- often in the open -- on the edge of their warren.
He looked as though he knew how to take care of himself. There was a shrewd, buoyant air about him as he sat up, looked around and rubbed both front paws over his nose. As soon as he was satisfied that all was well, he laid back his ears and set to work on the grass. His companion seemed less at ease.
He was small, with wide, staring eyes and a way of raising and turning his head which suggested not watership down book pdf free download much caution as a kind of ceaseless, nervous tension. His nose moved continually, and when a bumblebee flew humming to a thistle bloom behind him, he jumped and spun round with a start that sent two nearby rabbits scurrying for holes before the nearest, a buck with black-tipped ears, recognized him and returned to feeding.
Come on, Buckthorn, what were you telling me? You'd wonder nothing had got him by now. I always say a man couldn't see him and a fox wouldn't want him, watership down book pdf free download. Still, I admit he seems to be able to keep out of harm's way.
If you can't find one, no one can. They reached the brook and began nibbling and searching close beside the wheel ruts of the track, watership down book pdf free download. It was not long before Fiver found what they were looking for. Cowslips are a delicacy among rabbits, and as a rule there are very few left by late May in the neighborhood of even a small warren.
This one had not bloomed and its flat spread of leaves was almost hidden under the long grass. They were just starting on it when two larger rabbits came running across from the other side of the nearby cattle wade. Come on, hurry up," he added, as Fiver hesitated. If you don't, we can easily teach you. Hazel caught him up by the culvert. Still, let's forget it now and try to enjoy the evening. I tell you what -- shall we go across the brook?
There'll be fewer rabbits and we can have a bit of peace. Unless you feel it isn't safe? The way in which he asked suggested that he did in fact think that Fiver was likely to know better than himself, and it was clear from Fiver's reply that this was accepted between them.
But it's not exactly danger that I seem to feel watership down book pdf free download the place. It's -- oh, I don't know -- something oppressive, like thunder: I can't tell what; but it worries me. All the same, I'll come across with you, watership down book pdf free download. The grass was wet and thick near the stream and they made their way up the opposite slope, looking for drier ground. Part of the slope was in shadow, for the sun was sinking ahead of them, and Hazel, who wanted a warm, sunny spot, went on until they were quite near the lane.
As they approached the gate he stopped, staring. Two piles of earth lay on the grass. Heavy posts, reeking of creosote and paint, towered up as high as the holly trees in the hedge, and the board they carried threw a long shadow across the top of the field. Near one of the posts, a hammer and a few nails had been left behind.
Suddenly Fiver shivered and cowered down. This is where it comes from! I know now -- something very bad! Some terrible thing -- coming closer and closer.
I thought you said there was no danger? But it's coming -- it's coming. Oh, Hazel, look! The field! It's covered with blood! Fiver, come on, don't talk like this, you're frightening me! If he was terrified, why did he not run for safety, as any sensible rabbit would? But Fiver could not explain and only grew more and more distressed. At last Hazel said, "Fiver, you can't sit crying here. Anyway, it's getting dark. We'd better go back to the burrow.
I tell you, the field's full of blood--" "Now stop it," said Hazel firmly. Whatever the trouble is, it's time we got back. Here there was a delay, for Fiver -- surrounded on all sides by the quiet summer evening -- became helpless and almost paralyzed with fear. When at last Hazel had got him back to the ditch, he refused at first to go underground and Hazel had almost to push him down the hole.
The sun set behind the opposite slope. The wind turned colder, with a scatter of rain, watership down book pdf free download, and in less than an hour it was dark.
