“Heaven grant thee good,” said Arthur. “And where, Iddawc, didst thou find these little men?”
“I found them, lord, up yonder on the road.” Then the Emperor smiled.
“Lord,” said Iddawc, “wherefore dost thou laugh?”
“Iddawc,” replied Arthur, “I laugh nor; but it pitieth me that men of such stature as these should have this Island in their keeping, after the men that guarded it of yore.”

Are there any longer those who have not fallen under the shadow Nemesis-Invidia, and the world is wracked by awful calumny. Oh wicked ones, LOGOS is not silent, the Commonwealth is not suspended forever. We who braved the shower of heavenly darts and we who rode the comet's tail say this. If the living will not heed, we will break in the doors and smash the bolts; there will be confusion of people, those above with those who slumbered below. We shall bring up the sleepers to drink the light like the living; and the hosts of the sleepers will outnumber the living.
