Paroles
[Journalist]: Next morning, a crowd gathered on the Common, hypnotized by the unscrewing of the cylinder Two feet of shining screw projected when, suddenly, the lid fell off! Two luminous disc-like eyes appeared above the rim. A huge, rounded bulk, larger than a bear, rose up slowly, glistening like wet leather Its lipless mouth quivered and slavered - and snake-like tentacles writhed as the clumsy body heaved and pulsated A few young men crept closer to the pit. A tall funnel rose, then an invisible ray of heat leapt from man to man and there was a bright glare, as each was instantly turned to fire Every tree and bush became a mass of flames at the touch of this savage, unearthly Heat Ray People clawed their way off the Common, and I ran too. I felt I was being toyed with, that when I was on the very verge of safety This mysterious death would leap after me and strike me down At last I reached Maybury Hill and in the dim coolness of my home I wrote an account for my newspaper before I sank into a restless, haunted sleep I awoke to alien sounds of hammering from the pit, and hurried to the railway station to buy the paper "Morning paper, men from Mars! Men from Mars!" [Journalist]: News boys explained that one or two adventurous souls had crawled near the Martians of the night, never to be seen again. Yet around me, the daily routine of life - working, eating, sleeping - was continuing serenely as it had for countless years On Horsell Common, the Martians continued hammering and stirring, sleepless, indefatigable, at work upon the machines they were making Now and again a light, like the beam of a warship's searchlight, swept the Common - and the Heat Ray was ready to follow In the afternoon, a company of soldiers came through and deployed along the edge of the Common, to form a cordon That evening, there was a violent crash and I realized with horror that my home was now within range of the Martian's Heat Ray At dawn, a falling star with a trail of green mist landed with a flash like summer lightning This was the second cylinder
