47/78 There is much of the common bracken fern and hart's-tongue. We cross one rivulet running to the Lofubu, and camp by a blacksmith's rill in the jungle. No rain fell to-day for a wonder, but the lower tier of clouds still drifts past from N.W. The under north-west stratum of clouds is composed of fluffy cottony masses, the edges spread out as if on an electrical machine--the upper or south-east is of broad fields like striated cat's hair. The N.W.flies quickly, the S.E.slowly away where the others come from. |
