Chapter # Sentence # Quote
2 1 The Counter-Earth I remembered nothing, from the time I'd boarded the silver disk in the mountains of New Hampshire until now.
2 2 I awoke, feeling rested, and opened my eyes, half expecting to see my room in the alumni house at the college.
2 3 I turned my head, without pain or discomfort.
2 4 I seemed to be lying on some hard, flat object, perhaps a table, in a circular room with a low ceiling some seven feet high.
2 5 There were five narrow windows, not large enough to let a man through; they rather reminded me of ports for bowmen in a castle tower, yet they admitted sufficient light to allow me to recognize my surroundings.
2 6 There was a tapestry to the right, a well-woven depiction of some hunting scene, I took it, but fancifully done, the spear-carrying hunters mounted on birds of a sort and attacking an ugly animal that reminded me of a boar, except that it appeared to be too large, out of proportion to the hunters.
2 7 Its jaws carried four tusks, curved like scimitars.
