15	4	"The workers of the Fungus-Trays," said Misk, "break off both ends of the torch and climb about on the trays with the torch in their teeth".	10
14	187	"This is a Mul-Torch," said Misk, "used by the Muls who raise fungus in darkened chambers.	10
14	189	I knew that the Priest-King had no need of the torch.	10
15	1	In the Secret Chamber Holding the slender Mul-Torch over my head, I peered into the cavern now revealed in the floor of Misk's chamber.	10
15	3	There seemed to be very little heat from the bluish flame of the Mul-Torch but, considering the size of the flame, a surprising amount of light.	10
15	5	I had no mind to do this, but I did grasp the torch in my teeth with one end lit and, hand over hand, lower myself down the knotted rope.	10
15	14	When I arrived at the bottom of the rope, some forty feet below, I held the torch over my head and found myself in a bare, simple chamber.	10
15	25	I thrust the torch I carried into a crevice in the wall and, standing before Misk, I raised my arms over my head, extending them towards him.	10
15	37	The only light in the chamber was from my bluish torch.	10
15	39	The room was apparently large, for portions of it were lost in the shadows from the torch.	10
15	45	I held the torch high and looked at the Priest-King, who was rather small for a Priest-King, being only about twelve feet long.	10
15	96	My torch lifted, I regarded with awe the inert body of the young Priest-King on the stone table.	10
16	2	I could see the disklike eyes in that golden head above me and see the flicker of the blue torch on their myriad surfaces.	10
16	15	I rushed to the figure on the table, the torch held as though to strike it.	10
16	103	The torch seemed to tremble in my hand.	10
16	117	My eyes smarted, I suppose from some heat or fume of the Mul-Torch.	10
16	123	Inwardly I cursed the Mul-Torch that had brought tears to the eyes of a Warrior of Ko-ro-ba.	10
16	200	I puzzled on the many things which Misk had told me, and then I looked up at him, lifting my torch that I might better see that great head with its rich, disklike, luminous eyes.	10
16	210	I was silent and Misk did not speak and the only noise in that paneled metallic laboratory that was the cradle of a Priest-King was the soft crackle of the blue torch I held.	10
16	226	Misk left the room and I, bearing the torch, followed him.	10
21	3	At the entrance to the chamber, from a rack, Mul-Al-Ka had taken a Mul-Torch and broken off its end.	10
21	4	Holding this over his head, he illuminated those portions of the chamber to which the light of the torch would reach.	10
21	13	Mul-Al-Ka lifted the torch as high as he could.	10
21	24	"Give me the torch," I said.	10
21	25	I took the torch and went around to the edges of the room.	10
21	27	Taking the torch in my teeth I prepared to climb the set of bars.	10
21	36	Grinding out the Mul-Torch on the stones, I crouched down with them behind some of this debris and together we watched the door.	10
21	43	Then, as we crouched in the darkness of the far side of the chamber, the doors opposite us swung open and we observed two long lines of strange men, marching abreast, each of whom carried a Mul-Torch in one hand and in the other by a handle what resembled a deflated wineskin of golden leather.	10
21	73	I broke off the other end of the Mul-Torch, igniting it, and walked to the center of the chamber.	10
22	2	Putting the torch in my teeth, I began to climb the bars rapidly.	10
22	6	Still holding the Mul-Torch in my teeth because I wanted both hands free I began to make my way toward Misk, hand and foot, across these metal extensions.	10
22	11	My mouth seemed to be filled with carbon and I realized I must have almost bitten through the Mul-Torch.	10
22	23	I took the Mul-Torch out of my mouth and spit out some particles of carbon.	10
22	24	I lifted the torch and looked at Misk.	10
22	82	I thrust the Mul-Torch which I still carried into a narrow iron receptacle, consisting mainly of two connected rings and a base plate, which was bolted to the wall.	10
23	3	I held the Mul-Torch over my head and beheld the foul cavern in which she lay on a bedding of soiled mosses and stems.	10
23	44	I turned my back on Vika of Treve and, carrying the torch, left the cavern.	10
23	46	I returned and held the torch and her body was the same as before, the eyes fixed with the same expression of frozen horror, so I left the chamber.	10
23	48	I held my sword in my right hand and the Mul-Torch in my left.	10
23	50	It was a long, eerie search, in the blue light of the Mul-Torch, thrusting it into one crevice and another, trying one passage and then the next.	10
23	52	But still, as the Mul-Torch burned lower and I yet encountered no sign of the Golden Beetle, my thoughts turned ever and again to the still form of Vika lying in the cavern of the Golden Beetle.	10
23	60	I burst into the cavern of the Golden Beetle and held the torch high.	10
23	62	"Forgive me!" I fell to my knees beside her and thrust the Mul-Torch into a space between two stones in the floor.	10
24	17	It occurred to me then that the light of the Mul-Torch burning in the invariably dark tunnels of its domain may have temporarily blinded or disoriented the creature.	10
24	18	More likely the smell of the torch's oxidation products suddenly permeating its delicate antennae would have been as cacophonous to it as some protracted, discordant bedlam of noises might have been to us.	10
24	20	I seized the Mul-Torch from between the stones where I had placed it and, with a great shout, thrust it towards the creature's face.	10
24	41	Walking backwards, Vika on my shoulder, the Mul-Torch in my hand, I slowly retreated from the cavern of the Golden Beetle.	10
24	57	I leaned the Mul-Torch against the side of the passage.	10
24	75	The Mul-Torch was little more now than a glowing stub.	10
25	9	The Mul-Torch began to sputter.	10
25	23	As I prepared to resheath the sword I heard a slight noise in the passage and, in the light of the dying Mul-Torch, without moving, I waited.	10
25	33	The Mul-Torch suddenly sputtered out, leaving us in darkness.	10
25	53	In the vicinity of the portal itself I remembered, when I had had the Mul-Torch, seeing a ventilation shaft some twenty or thirty yards inside the passage and fixed in the ceiling of the passage some nine feet from the floor.	10
26	261	As I thought of our primeval ancestor standing in the mouth of his cave one hand gripping a chipped stone and perhaps the other a torch, his mate behind him and his young hidden in the mosses at the back of the cave I wondered at the genetic gifts that would ensure the survival of man in so hostile ...	10
28	18	And as I waited on the still disk in the darkness, my weapon ready, I suddenly saw far down the tunnel the sudden blue flash of an opened Mul-Torch and then its steady blaze, and then I saw another flash and blaze and another and to my amazement it seemed that these fires hung from the very ceiling ...	10
28	41	"I admire them," said Al-Ka, "for they can see a thousand yards in the darkness by the light of a single Mul-Torch and they can live on a handful of fungus and a swallow of water a day and they are very brave and proud".	10
28	64	In the dome of the Vivarium, holding a Mul-Torch, I walked up the ramps to the fourth tier, noting that the cages had been emptied, but I suspected that there would be one that would have remained locked.	10
28	66	She crouched in the corner of the case away from the door in the darkness, and through the plastic I saw her in the blue radiance of the Mul-Torch.	10
28	74	She stood before me blinking against the light of the Mul-Torch, trying to smile.	10
28	169	And a simple heat torch, as I had earlier learned, could scarcely mark the obdurate material.	10
28	176	It unnerved the Priest-Kings to pass unknowingly within feet of, say, a pale, agile fellow from the Fungus Chambers, who might be crouching in a nearby ventilator shaft with a heat torch, who might have burned their antennae for them if he had pleased; or to suddenly find themselves surrounded by a ...	10
