Current Search - death in The War of the Worlds
1 Had that death swept through a full circle, it must inevitably have slain me in my surprise.
2 It was sweeping round swiftly and steadily, this flaming death, this invisible, inevitable sword of heat.
3 I stood staring, not as yet realising that this was death leaping from man to man in that little distant crowd.
4 But the trouble was the blank incongruity of this serenity and the swift death flying yonder, not two miles away.
5 The description of their death, as it was seen by the crowd, tallies very closely with my own impressions: the three puffs of green smoke, the deep humming note, and the flashes of flame.
6 And invisible to me because it was so remote and small, flying swiftly and steadily towards me across that incredible distance, drawing nearer every minute by so many thousands of miles, came the Thing they were sending us, the Thing that was to bring so much struggle and calamity and death to the earth.
