- 0:04Speaker 1: Sleeprivox recording us in the public Domain, Chapter number sixteen.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Maya lay still, his head on his arms, his face
- 0:15Speaker 1: in the sand. He felt warm and sticky from the bleeding.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Each time he felt the horn coming. Sometimes the bull
- 0:23Speaker 1: only bumped him with his head. Once the horn went
- 0:25Speaker 1: all the way through him, and he felt it go
- 0:28Speaker 1: into the sand. Some one had the bull by the tail.
- 0:31Speaker 1: He was swearing at him and flopping the cape in
- 0:33Speaker 1: his face. Then the bull was gone. Some men picked
- 0:38Speaker 1: Mayeta up and started to run with him toward the barriers,
- 0:41Speaker 1: through the gate, out the passageway around under the grand
- 0:45Speaker 1: stand to the infirmary. They laid Mayea down on a cot,
- 0:49Speaker 1: and one of the men went out for the doctor.
- 0:52Speaker 1: The others stood around. The doctor came running from the
- 0:55Speaker 1: corral where he had been sewing up piccadot horses. He
- 0:59Speaker 1: had to stop up and wash his hands. There was
- 1:01Speaker 1: great shouting going on in the grandstand overhead. Mayeira wanted
- 1:05Speaker 1: to say something and found he could not talk. Maya
- 1:10Speaker 1: felt everything getting larger and larger, and then smaller and smaller.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Then it got larger and larger and larger than smaller
- 1:20Speaker 1: and smaller. Then everything commenced to run faster and faster,
- 1:24Speaker 1: as when they speed up a cinematograph film. Then he
- 1:29Speaker 1: was dead. End of Chapter sixteen.
