‘Look,’ she cried happily, ‘over there.’ Running along the midnight beach in the direction of the Martello tower and the holiday camp, – running along the water's edge so that the incoming tide washed away its footprints, – swerving and feinting, running for its life, there came a full-grown, large-as-life ostrich.
»Sehen Sie, dort«, rief sie selig. Was da über den mitternächtlichen Strand gelaufen kam, in Richtung Martello-Turm und Ferienlager - am Wasserrand, so dass die Flut seine Fußspuren verwischte -, was da fintenreich, hakenschlagend um sein Leben rannte, war ein leibhaftiger, ausgewachsener Strauß.
