Negore rokutanga raBheshazari mambo weBhabhironi Dhanieri akarota, akaratidzwa zvimwe mumusoro make ari panhoo dzake; akanyora zvaakarota, akaudza vanhu mashoko makuru azvo. Dhanieri akataura, akati, “Ndakaona pane zvandakaratidzwa usiku, tarirai, mhepo ina dzokudenga dzakamutsa gungwa guru. Mhuka huru ina dzikakwira dzichibuda mugungwa, dzisina kufanana. Yokutanga yakanga yakafanana neshumba, ina mapapiro egondo; ndikaramba ndakatarira kusvikira mapapiro ayo ataurwa, ikasimudzwa ichibva panyika, ikamiswa namakumbo maviri somunhu, ikapiwa mwoyo womunhu.
“Ndikaonazve imwe mhuka, yechipiri, yakafanana nebere; iyo yakanga yakasimudza rumwe rutivi rwayo, uye mumuromo mayo yakanga yakaruma mbabvu nhatu pakati pameno ayo; vakati kwariri, ‘Simuka, upedze nyama zhinji.’
“Shure kwaizvozvo ndakatarira, ndikaona imwezve, yakafanana nengwe, yakanga ina mapapiro mana pamusana wayo akafanana neeshiri; mhuka iyi yakanga ine misoro minawo; ikapiwa simba.
“Shure kwaizvozvo ndakaona pane zvandakaratidzwa usiku, ndikaona mhuka yechina, yaityisa nokuvhundusa, ine simba guru kwazvo; yakanga ina meno makuru outare; ikapedza, nokuvhuna‐vhuna, nokupwanya zvakanga zvasara netsoka dzayo; iyi yakanga yakasiyana nemhuka dzose dzakaitangira; yakanga ine nyanga gumi. Ndikacherechedza nyanga, ndikaona rumwe runyanga ruchibuda pakati pedzimwe, ruri ruduku, dzimwe nyanga nhatu pane dzokutanga dzikadzurwa nemidzi yadzo pamberi parwo; ndikaona kuti parunyanga urwo pakanga pana meso omunhu, nomuromo wakanga uchitaura zvinhu zvikuru.
“Ndikaramba ndakatarira kusvikira zvigaro zvoushe zvagadzwapo, mumwe akakwegura pamazuva ake akagarapo; nguo yake yakanga yakachena sechando, uye vhudzi romusoro wake rakanga rakaita samakushe akanatswa; chigaro chake choushe chakanga chiri mirazvo yomoto, makumbo acho uri moto unopfuta. Rwizi rwomoto rwakanga rwuchibuda ruchibva pamberi pake; zviuru nezviuru zvakanga zvichimubatira, uye pamberi pake pakanga pamire zviuru zvine gumi zvezviuru zvine gumi; kutonga kukatanga, bhuku rikazarurwa.
“Ndikaramba ndakatarira nenguva iyo nemhaka yokudana kwamashoko makuru akanga achitaurwa norunyanga; ndikaramba ndakatarira kusvikira mhuka yaurawa, muviri wayo uchiparadzwa, uchiiswa mumoto kuti upiswe. Kana dziri dzimwe mhuka, dzakatorerwa ushe hwadzo, asi upenyu hwadzo hwakawedzerwa kusvikira nhambo nenguva zvakatenderwa.
