The blood again began to circulate through the veins, and enjoyable\u003cbr\u003eas the heat was, the sharp tingling in the hands and feet caused the\u003cbr\u003egirls acute pain. Then came a feeling of pleasant drowsiness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'It will do them no harm to go to sleep, I suppose?' Mr. Hawtrey asked\u003cbr\u003eGiuseppe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'No, monsieur. Now that they are warm it is the best thing for them. We\u003cbr\u003ewill keep up the fire.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScarcely a word had yet been spoken. Both Mr. Hawtrey and his friend\u003cbr\u003ewere completely exhausted. Since they had left the glacier they had\u003cbr\u003estaggered along in a half-stupefied condition, feeling that in spite of\u003cbr\u003etheir exertions they were gradually becoming more and more chilled. As\u003cbr\u003esoon as the fire blazed up and there was nothing more to do for the\u003cbr\u003egirls, they had thrown themselves down near the fire, and a feeling of\u003cbr\u003edrowsiness, against which they had been fighting ever since the storm\u003cbr\u003estruck them, was now almost overpowering. Giuseppe produced from his\u003cbr\u003ewallet a bottle of wine and some cold meat and bread. These had formed\u003cbr\u003epart of the supply that had been brought up for lunch. The rest had been\u003cbr\u003eleft behind, at the spot where they had started on the glacier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Let us eat, monsieur,' he said to Captain Armstrong.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'But the others will want something when they wake.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Conrad will start as soon as he has eaten, monsieur, to get help. It is\u003cbr\u003etwo o'clock now; he will be down at the village in three hours, and will\u003cbr\u003ebring up porters and food. The ladies will not be able to walk. It has\u003cbr\u003ebeen a narrow escape.'","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47157764751600,"sku":"2940013290419","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013290419_p0.jpg?v=1763579433","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013290419","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
