“The tears began to flow and sobs shook him. He gave himself up to them now for the first time on the island; great, shuddering spasms of grief that seemed to wrench his whole body. His voice rose under the black smoke before the burning wreckage of the island; and infected by that emotion, the other little boys began to shake and sob too. And in the middle of them, with filthy body, matted hair, and unwiped nose, Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy.”

“The circle became a horseshoe. A thing was crawling out of the forest. It came darkly, uncertainly. The shrill screaming that rose before the beast was like a pain. The beast stumbled into the horseshoe. ‘Kill the beast! Cut his throat! Spill his blood!’ The blue-white scar was constant, the noise unendurable. Simon was crying out something about a dead man on a hill. ‘Kill the beast! Cut his throat! Spill his blood! Do him in!’ The sticks fell and the mouth of the new circle crunched and screamed. The beast was on its knees in the center, its arms folded over its face. It was crying out against the abominable noise something about a body on the hill. The beast struggled forward, broke the ring and fell over the steep edge of the rock to the sand by the water. At once the crowd surged after it, poured down the rock, leapt on to the beast, screamed, struck, bit, tore. There were no words, and no movements but the tearing of teeth and claws.”

“Jack sat up and stretched out his legs....Jack drew up his legs, clasped his knees, and frowned in an effort to attain clarity. ‘All the same–in the forest. I mean when you're hunting, not when you're getting fruit, of course, but when you're on your own –’ He paused for a moment, not sure if Ralph would take him seriously... ‘If you're hunting sometimes you catch yourself feeling as if –’ He flushed suddenly. ‘There's nothing in it of course. Just a feeling. But you can feel as if you're not hunting, but being hunted, as if something's behind you all the time in the jungle.’ They were silent again: Simon intent, Ralph incredulous and faintly indignant. He sat up, rubbing one shoulder with a dirty hand. ‘Well, I don't know.’ Jack leapt to his feet and spoke very quickly. “That's how you can feel in the forest. Of course there's nothing in it. Only–only–” He took a few rapid steps toward the beach, then came back. ‘Only I know how they feel. See? That's all.’ Jack had to think for a moment before he could remember what rescue was. ‘Rescue? Yes, of course! All the same, I'd like to catch a pig first–’ He snatched up his spear and dashed it into the ground. The opaque, mad look came into his eyes again. Ralph looked at him critically through his tangle of fair hair.” ‘Rescue? Yes, of course! All the same, I'd like to catch a pig first–’ He snatched up his spear and dashed it into the ground.
