But I do not know that if Iwere a prisoner, for no fault of my own, I should be very explicitlythankful for being unusually well fed. I thought (or I think now) that afig or a bunch of grapes would have been more acceptable to me under myown vine and fig-tree than the stew and roast of captors who were indeedshowing themselves less my enemies than my own government, but were stillnot quite my hosts.
III.
How is it the great pieces of good luck fall to us? The clock strikestwelve as it strikes t...wo, and with no more premonition. As we stoodthere expecting nothing better of it than three at the most, it suddenlystruck twelve. Our officer appeared at the inner gate and bade ourmarines slide away the gate of barbed wire and let us into the enclosure, where he welcomed us to seats on the grass against the stockade, withmany polite regrets that the tough little knots of earth beside it werenot chairs.
The prisoners were already filing out of their quarters, at a rapid trottowards the benches where those great wash-boilers of coffee were set.
