the fur on their bac/s# so we ha$e to /ee" them se"arated# tying a blan/et around them andta/ing care they do not sociali1e at night with the other mancus"ias that slee" in cages andrecei$e food e$ery eight hours.

We aren7t feeling well. (t7s been coming on since the morning# maybe caused by the hot wind

that blows e$ery day at dawn# before the rising of a sun that "ours down on the house all dayli/e a rain of hot "itch. (t is hard for us to attend to the sic/ animals8this at around ele$en8and chec/ u" on the young ones ta/ing their na"s. Wal/ing is getting to be more difficult#/ee"ing u" the routine6 we sus"ect that one solitary night of neglect could s"ell doom for themancus"ias# and irre"arably ruin our li$es. 2o we "roceed without a thought# com"leting tas/sone after the other alternating according to routine# "ausing only for food %there are bits of

bread on the table and on to" of the mantel"iece in the li$ing room& or to stare at oursel$es inthe mirror that du"licates the bedroom. At night we fall abru"tly into bed# and the inclinationto brush our teeth before slee"ing yields to our fatigue# so that we can only manage a wa$e ofthe hand toward the lam" or the medicine bottles. 9utside is the sound of the adultmancus"ias wal/ing and wal/ing in circles.

We7re not feeling well. 9ne of us has to ta/eAconitum# a name deri$ed from drugs containinglarge amounts of aconite in solution# which are used if# for e:am"le# fear induces an attac/ of$ertigo.Aconitum is a io!ent thunderstorm" that passes #uic$!y. How else would youdescribe the counterattac/ of an an:iety that is triggered by any insignificant thing# bynothing. A woman is abru"tly confronted with a dog and begins to feel wildly di11y. Thenaconitum# and after a little while the fit becomes a sweet giddiness# with a tendency to mo$ein re$erse %this ha""ened to us# but it was a case of%ryonia# which caused us to colla"se ;ustthe same# with a feeling as if we were sin/ing into bed&.

The other one of us# in mar/ed contrast# is thoroughly&u' Vomica. After bringing themancus"ias their malted oats# maybe after doing too much bending down to fill the bowl# onee:"eriences a rush as if the brains were suddenly s"inning# not that e$erything around ones"ins8as is the case with $ertigo8rather it is the $ision itself that s"ins# such that the innerconsciousness rotates li/e a gyrosco"e in its hoo"# while the e:terior is all tremendouslyimmobile# it is only that which is fleeing# and im"ossible to gras". We ha$e wondered if itmight not be a case ofPhosphorus# because one is terrified by the "erfume of flowers %or ofthe little mancus"ias# that smell wea/ly of lilacs& and it "hysically resembles the "hos"horus

bo:< tall# thin# cra$ing cold drin/s# ice cream and salt.

At night it is not so bad# the fatigue and the silence come to our aid8because the mancus"ias

/ee" watch sweetly o$er the silence of the "am"a8and at times we slee" until dawn andawa/e with a ho"eful feeling that things will im"ro$e. (f one of us ;um"s out of bed before theother# that one may be smitten with tre"idation at the "ros"ect of a re"etition of the

"henomenon Camphora mono(romata# which causes one to belie$e one is going in onedirection when in reality one is going the o""osite way. (t7s terrible# we go with com"leteassurance toward the bathroom# and suddenly we are "ressing u" against the na/ed s/in of thetall mirror. We always laugh off such things# because you ha$e to /ee" your mind on the wor/and we would gain nothing by getting disheartened so early on. We loo/ for the ca"sules# tofollow the instructions of r. Harbin scru"ulously without comment or discouragement.%Maybe we7re secretly a touch&atrum muriaticum. Ty"ically# a natrum cries# but nobody can

be "ermitted to see that. 9ne is sad# one is reser$ed6 one li/es salt&.

Who can lose time contem"lating such $anities when there7s wor/ waiting for us in the corral#in the greenhouse and in the dairy= Chango and !eonor are already stirring u" a rac/etoutside# and when we go out with the thermometers and dri$e them toward the bath# those two

"reci"itate themsel$es into the wor/ as if they wanted to become tired 5uic/ly# to loo/ busyfor us and "ost"one their goofing off for later. We /now what7s what# and than/fully we are

still fit enough to handle the daily wor/ oursel$es. As long as we7re not too busy# or sufferingheadaches# we can /ee" it u". 4ow it7s 0ebruary# in May the mancus"ias will be sold and wewill be secure through the wintertime. We can hold out.

The mancus"ias are $ery entertaining# in "art because they are cle$er and full of wic/edness#in "art because raising their young is a tric/y business# which re5uires e:acting o$ersight#incessant and thorough. There isn7t much to say about it# but here7s an e:am"le of how itwor/s< one of us releases the mother mancus"ias from their greenhouses8that would be at AM8and they are gathered in the corral# which is lined with dry grass. They are left tofrolic for twenty minutes# while the others chec/ the young left in their numbered "igeonholeswhere each one undergoes a 5uic/ "hysical and rectal tem"erature e:am. Those who e:ceed

)? C are returned to their "igeonholes while the rest are "laced in a chute of sheet metal tonurse with their mothers. This might be the most beautiful time of morning# as we are touched

by the ;oy of the little mancus"ias and their mothers# their noisy# nonsto" chatter. !eaning onthe railing of the corral we forget the "hantom of midday that a""roaches us# the hardafternoon that will not be "ost"oned. 0or a moment we are a little afraid to loo/ toward theground of the corral8a $ery distinct case of Onosmodium8but the e"isode "asses and thelight sa$es us from the com"lementary sym"tom# the headache that is aggra$ated by dar/ness.

Eight o7cloc/ is bathtime# one of us goes and throws handfuls of @rschen salts and bran intothe basins# the other tells Chango to bring buc/ets of te"id water. The mother mancus"iasdon7t li/e the bath# so they ha$e to be handled carefully by the ears and legs# held firmly li/erabbits# and dun/ed and redun/ed in the water o$er and o$er. The mancus"ias bristle indes"eration# and that is what we want# as it allows the salt to "enetrate to their $ery delicates/in.

The tas/ of feeding the mothers falls to !eonor# who does it $ery well6 we ha$e ne$er /nownthere to be an error in the distribution of "ortions. They are gi$en malted oats# and twice awee/ they get mil/ with white wine. We don7t entirely trust Chango# it seems to us that hedrin/s the wine himself# so it would be better to /ee" the Bordelaise inside# but the house issmall and the sweet smell would lea/ out when the sun is high anyway.

Maybe what we7re saying would be monotonous and useless if things did not gradually alteras they re"eat6 the last few days8now that we are entering into the critical weaning "eriod8one of us must ac/nowledge# with bitter feelings# that a Si!ica"hase is coming on. (t beginsthe moment one goes to slee"# a loss of stability# an inner lea"# a $ertigo that scales the s"inalchord and into the head6 ;ust li/e the cree"y crawling %it can be described in no other terms& ofthe little mancus"ias u" the "osts of the corrals. Then# suddenly# abo$e the blac/ hole of slee"we7d fallen deliciously into# we sense ;ust what hard and caustic "ost the "layful mancus"iasare climbing on. And closing the eyes ma/es it worse. 2o much for slee"ing# no one slee"swith o"en eyes6 we7re dying of fatigue but a little nodoff is enough to ma/e us feel $ertigocrawling# swinging in the s/ull# as if the head were full of li$ing things s"inning around andaround inside. !i/e mancus"ias do.

And it is "retty ridiculous# since it7s well/nown that the illness "roceeds from a lac/ ofsi!ica#which is to say# sand. And we are surrounded by sand dunes here# we li$e in a little $alleythreatened by immense dunes of sand# and yet we ha$e none when we go to slee".

4otwithstanding the li/elihood that encroachment will continue# we "refer to s"end a bit of

time se$erely do"ed u"6 by noon we ha$e noticed the medications ta/ing effect# and theafternoon of wor/ that follows comes off seemingly without a hitch# e:ce"t maybe for a fewminor derangements of things# so that# after a little while# the ob;ects seem to stand motionless

before us6 a sensation at the $ery edge of life in e$ery way. We sus"ect things are becomingmore)u!camara# but it is not easy to be sure.

(n the air the down of the adult mancus"ias floats gently# after our na"s we go with scissors#rubber bags# and Chango out to the corral where they are gathered for shearing. The nights in0ebruary are cooling already# the mancus"ias needed their coats to slee" in# because theyslee" stretched out and so are more $ulnerable than animals that curl u" to slee" with theirlegs crossed. Howe$er# the fur on the bac/ sheds# sloughing off bit by bit and floating in the

air# e$entually filling the corral with a floury ha1e of lint that tic/les the nostrils and chases usbac/ into the house. 2o we gather them together and trim their bac/s only halfway# beingcareful not to lea$e them too much e:"osed to the cold. When the cli""ings are too short to

billow in the air# they fall in a yellowish residue of dust that !eonor wets down with the hoseand rolls u" into the daily wad of "aste# which is then tossed down the well.

9ne of us has his hands full matching u" the males to the young mancus"ias# weighing thesechic/s while Chango reads aloud the results of the "re$ious day7s weight chec/s# $erifying thede$elo"ment of each mancus"ia and se"arating out the more slowde$elo"ing ones for e:trafeed. We /ee" this u" until nightfall6 until finally !eonor distributes the oats of the secondmeal in a flash# and then we loc/ u" the mother mancus"ias while the little ones s5ueal andobstinately try to follow alongside them. (t7s Chango7s ;ob to ta/e them off se"arately# whilewe ins"ect the $eranda. At eight we close the doors and windows6 at eight we are inside#alone.

This was once a sweet moment# when we would recount incidents and ho"es. But now that weare not feeling well it seems as if this hour only e:tends the tedium. Vainly do we beguileoursel$es with the arrangement of our little "harmacy8the al"habetical order is constantly

being u"set by o$ersight86 on and on we linger silently at the table# reading the manual ofAl$are1 de Toledo %Educate Dourself& or of the Hum"hreys %Homeo"athic Mentor&. 9neof us has been e:"eriencing an intermittentPu!sati!!a"hase# that is to say# e:hibiting

sym"toms of $olubility# moroseness# e:actingness# and irritability. This comes on at dus/# andcoincides with thePetro!eumstage that affects the other# a state in which e$erything8things#$oices# memories8roll o$er one# as the sufferer becomes tumescent and stiff. There is noconflict between them# it7s hardly com"arable to the other# and tolerable enough. Afterwards#sometimes# slee" will come.

We would not wish to insert an artificially se5uential scheme into these notes# one which willincrease in articulation until it bursts with all the "athos of a great orchestra# after which the$oices subside and droo" into the tran5uility of satiety. 2ometimes we write of things thatha$e already ha""ened to us %li/e the great G!onoinumheadache the day that the second litterof mancus"ias was born and sometimes we write of what ha""ens now or ;ust this morning.

We belie$e it necessary to document these "hases for r. Harbin to add to his new medicalhistory when we go bac/ to Buenos Aires. We are not cle$er# we /now that we lose the thread

"retty fast# but r. Harbin "refers to understand the details surrounding the case. This rubbingagainst the bathroom window that we hear at night might be significant. (t might be asym"tom of Canni(is indica6 already it is /nown that a Canni(is indicahas e:altedsensations# with e:aggerations of time and distance. (t could be a mancus"ia who has gottenloose and come to the light.

We started out o"timists# and we ha$e not lost ho"e of gaining a good sum with the sale of theyoung ones. We rise early# since time is of the essence during the final "hase# and# at least to

begin with# we are almost unaffected by the flight of Chango and !eonor. Without ad$ancenotice# without fulfilling any of their statutory obligations# last night those sons of bitchesmade off with our horse and the sul/y# one of our rugs# the carbide lantern# and the latest issueofMundo Argentino. The silence in the corrals made us sus"ect their absence# we ha$e to rushto release the young and get them nursing# "re"aring the baths# the malted oats. We /ee"telling oursel$es not to brood o$er this occurrence# we wor/ without admitting that now weare alone# without a horse to co$er the si: leagues to uan# with "ro$isions for a wee/# now

being used by useless bums ma/ing the rounds of towns# now that the stu"id rumor has s"read

that we breed mancus"ias and e$erybody should /ee" clear of us for fear of infection. 9nlywith healthy e:ertion can we tolerate the cons"iracy of forces that o""resses us at midday# atthe height of the lunch hour %one of us throws together a "late of tongue and a can of "eas#fried ham and eggs that re;ects the idea of going without our siesta# loc/s us u" within theshade of the bedroom more im"lacably than the double bolted doors. (t7s only now that weclearly remember last night7s bad slee"# that weird $ertigo# trans"arent# if one may be

"ermitted such an e:"ression. Wa/ing# starting u"# loo/ing straight ahead at some ob;ect8thewardrobe# for e:am"le8which is seen s"inning at $ariable $elocity and de$iatinginconsistently on one edge %the right side&6 while at the same time# through the $orte:# thesame wardrobe can be seen standing firmly in "lace and not mo$ing. 9ne doesn7t ha$e tothin/ too hard to recogni1e it as a Cyc!amenstage# of the /ind that res"onds to treatment inonly a few minutes and braces us to get u" and bac/ to wor/ again. 0ar worse to be ;olted outof the de"ths of a siesta %when things are so $ery much themsel$es# when the sun brus5uelydraws its edges around things& by agitation and ;abber from the corral of the adultmancus"ias# when one of them abru"tly and with dis5uiet renounces their fattening re"ose.We don7t want to go out# the high sun would mean a headache# how can we chance the

"ossibility of headaches now# when e$erything de"ends on our wor/. But what else can wedo# the dis5uiet of the mancus"ias is growing# now it is "ossible to hear from the house theun"recedented rac/et s"reading o$er the corrals# so then we throw on our "rotecti$e "ithhelmets# and di$ide u" after a hasty consultation. 9ne of us hustles out to the mothers in theircrates while the other $erifies that all the gates are loc/ed# and the water le$el in the

Australian tan/ is all right# and chec/s for the "ossible in$asion of a fo: or a mountain lion.We had only ;ust arri$ed at the entrance to the corral when we were blinded by the sun. !i/ealbinos we wa$er between the white flashes# we would li/e to continue the wor/ but it is late#the%e!!adonastage harasses us and flings us down e:hausted in the somber recesses of the

barn. Congested# face red and hot6 "u"ils dilated. Violent "ulsation in the head and carotid.Violent twinges and lancings. Headache li/e sha/ing. ressing down with each ste" li/e aweight on the occi"ital. Clea$ings and im"alements. E:"loding "ain6 as if it were dri$ing intothe brain6 worse when bending forward# as if the brain were dribbling outward# as if it weresho$ing its way out the front# or the eyes were being forced out. %*i$ethis# !i$ethat6 but thetruth is ne$er li/e anything.& Worse with the noises# the sha/ing# motion# light. And then ;ustli/e that it sto"s# the shadow and the coolness banish it all in an instant# lea$ing us to a

mar$elous gratitude# a wish to run# sha/ing our heads# ama1ed that ;ust a moment before . . .But there is wor/ to do# and now we sus"ect that the dis5uiet of the mancus"ias results from a


6/8

lac/ of fresh water# than/s to the absence of !eonor and Chango8they are so sensiti$e thatthey must be feeling that absence in some way8# and this morning7s wor/ was a littledifferent from usual# owing to our blunders# our difficulties.

2ince it is not a shearing day# one of us is occu"ied with arrangements for breeding and with

weight control6 it is ob$ious that the young ones ha$e suddenly gotten worse since yesterday.The mothers eat "oorly# sniffing languidly at the malted oats before deigning to nibble thete"id "orridge. (n silence# we attend to the last tas/s# now the coming of the night has adifferent feeling that we do not wish to e:amine# and we do not de$iate# as we did before#from the established and functional order# with !eonor and Chango and the mancus"ias intheir "ro"er "laces. To close the doors of the house is to shut out an unlegislated world# inwhich night and dawn do as they "lease. We enter fearfully and o$ercautiously# demurring fora while# inca"able of "utting it off and this ma/es us furti$e and e$asi$e# with all the nightwaiting li/e a watching eye.

!uc/ily we are drowsy. The sun and wor/ can dis"ense with more than one of our worries.

We7re straying off into slee" o$er our cold lefto$ers# "itifully masticating shri$elled bits offried egg and bread soggy with mil/. 2omething scratches once again at the bathroomwindow# and what seems li/e furti$e slithering can be heard on the roof6 the wind isn7t

blowing# it is the night of the full moon and the roosters would be crowing before midnight# ifwe had roosters. We go to bed without a word# doling out the last doses of the medicationgro"ing blindly with our fingers. With the light out8but those aren7t the right words# the lightis not "ut out# the light is sim"ly gone# the house is a tenebrous well and outside e$erything islit by the full moon8we want to say something to oursel$es and we7re barely able to as/oursel$es about tomorrow# about how we will get the feed from town. And we sle"t. 9nehour# no more# the ashen thread the window throws has barely edged toward the bed. All of asudden we are alert in the dar/# listening in the dar/ so that we may listen better. There7ssomething going on among the mancus"ias# the noise is now a rabid or terrified clamor# inwhich we can ma/e out the /een howling of the females and the more bronchial ululations ofthe males# suddenly interru"ted# li/e a $olley of silence mo$ing o$er the house# then onceagain the clamor mounts against the night and the distance. We do not thin/ of going outthere# ;ust listening is already too much# one of us wonders if the shrie/s are coming fromoutside or in here because sometimes they seem to be coming from the inside# and o$er thecourse of this $igil we enter into anAconitumstage# where all is confused and nothing is lesscertain than its o""osite. Des# the headaches come on with a $iolence that can hardly bedescribed. 2ensation of ri""ing# of burning in the brain# in the scal"# with fear# with fe$er#with anguish. 0ullness and hea$iness in the forehead# as if there were a weight inside that is

"ushing outward< as if e$erything were being torn out through the forehead.Aconitumisabru"t6 sa$age6 worse in cold winds6 with an:iety# anguish# fear. The mancus"ias surround thehouse# it is useless to re"eat that they are in the corrals# that the loc/s are holding.

We do not notice the dawn# toward fi$e o7cloc/ we tumble from restless dreams as our handsstir to life at the usual hour# lifting ca"sules to our mouths. There has been a /noc/ing at theli$ing room door for some time now# the blows increase with fury until the snea/ers "ut oneof us on and go cree"ing u" to the /eyhole. (t7s the "olice# come to tell us that Chango has

been arrested6 they are bringing the sul/y bac/# which they sus"ected had been stolen andabandoned. There7s a re"ort to sign# all is well# the high sun and the great silence of thecorrals. The "olice ins"ect the corrals# one co$ers his nose with a hand/erchief# ma/ing li/e

he is coughing. We tell them what they want to hear# we sign# and they ta/e their lea$e almostat a run# they go far bac/ from the corrals and loo/ at them# and at us too# stealing a glance

into the interior %which emits a stagnant odor from the o"en doorway and they almost hurryoff. (t is $ery strange that these brutes didn7t want to "o/e around a bit more. They fled this

"lace li/e the "lague# scurrying along the side road.

9ne of us seems to decide "ersonally that the other will ta/e the sul/y and hunt u" some feed#

while the morning chores are attended to. We get going without enthusiasm# the horse is wornout because it has been dri$en relentlessly already# conse5uently we go along little by littleand lingeringly. All is in order# so that means the mancus"ias were not the ones that arema/ing noises in the house# the roof tiles will ha$e to be fumigated for rats# ama1ing therac/et that one solitary rat can ma/e in the night. We o"en the corrals# gather the motherstogether but there7s barely any malted oats left and the mancus"ias are fighting ferociously#ri""ing "ieces from the bac/ and nec/. The blood s"rays from them# and it ta/es the whi" andshouts to se"arate them. (n the aftermath# the little ones nurse with difficulty and im"erfectly#we can tell the chic/s are famished# yet some of them wobble o$er to us or su""ortthemsel$es leaning against the barbed wire. There is a male lying dead in the entrance to hiscrate# ine:"licably. And the horse doesn7t want to trot# we7re already ten lots from the house

with further to go# and his head is nodding and snorting. e;ected# we underta/e the tour#seeing how the last remnants of feed are lost in one con$ulsion of $iolence.

We7re not all that determined to go through with it# and so we come bac/ to the $eranda.There is a dying mancus"ia chic/ on the first ste". We lift it# we "ut it in the bas/et with straw#we want to /now what it is dying of but it dies the obscure death of an animal. And the loc/sare intact# there is no way to /now how this mancus"ia got out# if its death was its esca"e or ifits esca"e was its death. We "ut ten ca"sules of&u' Vomicain its bea/. They remain there li/elittle "earls# which it is unable to swallow. 0rom where we are we can see a male fallen on itshands6 trying to raise itself with a shudder# letting itself fall again as if "raying.

We seem to hear cries# so near to us that we loo/ under the straw chairs on the $eranda6 r.Harbin has "re"ared us for brute assaults in the morning# but we didn7t imagine it could ha$eta/en the form of a headache li/e this. 9cci"ital "ain# so much that there is# now and again# ane:"losion of crying

dare to remo$e the dead mancus"ias# nor is there an e:"lanation for ten em"ty crates# or forhow some of the young ones came to be mi:ed in with the males in the corral. (t can barely beseen# now that night is falling all at once and Chango has robbed us of the carbide lam".

(t seems as if# in the road# there against the mountainous willows# there were "eo"le. (f we are

going to send someone to town# this is the moment6 there is still time. 2ometimes we wonderif they aren7t s"ying on us# the "eo"le are so ignorant and they don7t ha$e much between theireyes. We "refer not to thin/ and we close the door ha""ily# retreating to the house wheree$erything is more our own. We would li/e to consult the manuals so as to a$oid a newApis#or some other# still worse beast6 we lea$e su""er and read aloud# almost without hearing.2ome "hrases climb o$er the others# and outside it is the same# some mancus"ias howl louderthan the rest# /ee"ing it u" and re"eating a "iercing ululation.

Maybe the manual does not want to alarm the ailing layman by namingthe animal directly. 4e$ertheless it does "resent this name# this terrible ser"ent . . . whose

$enom acts with horrible intensity. We ha$e to yell to ma/e oursel$es heard o$er the clamorof the mancus"ias# once again we can feel them surrounding the house# on the roof# scratchingat the windows# against the lintels. (n a way it isn7t so strange# for lately we7$e seen so manyo"en crates# but the house is closed and the light in the dining room enwra"s us in its chill
