At the same moment, I saw a thin line oflivid flame, far in the night. An instant, it seemed, and it had growninto a great clot of fire; beneath which, the world lay bathed in ablaze of emerald green light. Steadily it grew, until, presently, thewhole of the green star had come into sight again. But now, it could bescarcely called a star; for it had increased to vast proportions, beingincomparably greater than the sun had been in the olden time. "Then, as I stared, I became aware that I could s...ee the edge of thelifeless sun, glowing like a great crescent-moon. Slowly, its lightedsurface, broadened out to me, until half of its diameter was visible;and the star began to drop away on my right. Time passed, and the earthmoved on, slowly traversing the tremendous face of the dead sun. " [13] Gradually, as the earth traveled forward, the star fell still more tothe right; until, at last, it shone on the back of the house, sending aflood of broken rays, in through the skeleton-like walls. Glancingupward, I saw that much of the ceiling had vanished, enabling me to seethat the upper storeys were even more decayed.
