1 "We had a lot of earthquakes," said Dorothy.
2 Dorothy sighed and commenced to breathe easier.
3 Dorothy and Zeb looked at one another in wonder.
4 "I'm sure we are in no danger," said Dorothy, in a sober voice.
5 Dorothy grabbed fast hold of the buggy top and the boy did the same.
6 Dorothy thought he just wiggled one of his drooping ears, but that was all.
7 When Dorothy recovered her senses they were still falling, but not so fast.
8 "As for that, we are in the same scrape ourselves," answered Dorothy, cheerfully.
9 How long this state of things continued Dorothy could not even guess, she was so greatly bewildered.
10 Jumping out of the buggy he put Dorothy's suit-case under the seat and her bird-cage on the floor in front.
11 Next minute there was a roar and a sharp crash, and at her side Dorothy saw the ground open in a wide crack and then come together again.
12 Jim the horse had seen these spires, also, and his ears stood straight up with fear, while Dorothy and Zeb held their breaths in suspense.
13 Dorothy had a green streak through the center of her face where the blue and yellow lights came together, and her appearance seemed to add to his fright.
14 The horrible sensation of falling, the darkness and the terrifying noises, proved more than Dorothy could endure and for a few moments the little girl lost consciousness.
15 Dorothy was too dazed to say much, but she watched one of Jim's big ears turn to violet and the other to rose, and wondered that his tail should be yellow and his body striped with blue and orange like the stripes of a zebra.
16 When Jim felt something firm under his feet the poor beast's legs trembled so much that he could hardly stand; but Zeb at once leaped out of the buggy to the roof, and he was so awkward and hasty that he kicked over Dorothy's bird-cage, which rolled out upon the roof so that the bottom came off.
17 This splendid group of colored suns sent rays darting in every direction, and as the horse and buggy--with Dorothy and Zeb--sank steadily downward and came nearer to the lights, the rays began to take on all the delicate tintings of a rainbow, growing more and more distinct every moment until all the space was brilliantly illuminated.
