I told some of you last Thursday about the principles of the Time Machine, and showed you the actual thing itself, incomplete in the workshop. There it is now, a little travel-worn, truly; and one of the ivory bars is cracked, and a brass rail bent, but the rest of it is sound enough. 1 expected to finish it on Friday, but on Friday, when the putting together was nearly done, I found that one of the nickel bars was exactly one inch1 too short, and this
I had to get remade; 1 It was at ten o'clock
today that the first Time Machine ever began its career. I gave it a last tap. tried all the screws again, put one more drop of oil on the quartz rod, and sat myself in the saddle. I took the starting lever in one hand and the stopping one in the other, pressed the first, and almost immediately the second. I felt unsteady, then a nightmare sensation of falling but. looking round, I saw the laboratory exactly as before. Had anything happened? For a moment I suspected that my intellect had tricked me. Then I noted the clock. A moment before, as it seemed, it had been a minute or so past ten; now it was nearly half past three!
I drew a breath, set my teeth, gripped the
starting lever with both hands. 2 The
laboratory went hazy and then dark. Mrs Watchctt came in and walked, apparently without seeing me. towards the garden door. I suppose it took her a
minute or so to cross the place, 3 I pushed
the lever to full power. The night came like the turning out of a lamp, and in another moment came tomorrow. The laboratory grew faint and hazy, then fainter and ever fainter. Tomorrow night came
black, then day again, night again, day again, still faster and faster. A whirling murmur filled my ears, 35 and a strange confusedness descended on my mind.
I am afraid I cannot convey the peculiar sensations of lime travelling. They are excessively unpleasant. There is a feeling exactly like that one has upon a switchback2 - of a helpless headlong 40 motion! I felt the same horrible anticipation, too, of an imminent smash. As I increased speed, night followed day like the flapping of a black wing. The dim outline of the laboratory seemed presently to
fall away from me, 4 , leaping it every 45
minute, and every minute marking a day. I supposed the laboratory had been destroyed and I had come into the open air. 1 had a dim impression
of scaffolding, 5 The slowest snail that
ever crawled dashed by too fast for me. The 50 twinkling succession of darkness and light was excessively painful to the eye. Then, in the darkness, I saw the moon spinning swiftly through her quarters from new to lull, and had a faint glimpse of the circling stars. As I went on, still 55 gaining speed, the appearance of night and day merged into one continuous greyness; the sky took on a wonderful deepness of blue, a splendid luminous colour like that of early twilight: the sun became a streak of fire, a brilliant arch, in space; 60 the moon a fainter changing band, and I could see nothing of the stars except a brighter circle flickering in the blue now and then.'
When did i tell you about the time machine, When did you expect to finish it , After you started the time machine did the lab change, What did you see in thw darkness, What was the only thing you could see in the end.
