1. What parallels are implied in describing "the dim pinkish thing" as "looking . . . like a . . . child"?

2. What's the obvious implication of how Moreau is referred to in the Law?

3. If Moreau takes on the role of God (at least to the Beast People), it follows that in our relation to God, we are analogous to the Beast People. What do you think this implies about us?

4. How does Prendick describe the Beast People when he looks around himself at the end of the saying of the Law? What do you think these descriptions imply?

5. How does Prendick describe Moreau as emerges "through the haze under the trees beyond the end of the passage of dens"?
