46. “I can’t think. Not like Piggy.”

sensible too. The tide cleans the place up. You littluns know about that.” (113)

48. “There was a row immediately. Boys stood up and shouted and Ralph
shouted back.” (114)

49. “Last night I had a dream, a horrid dream, fighting with things. I was
outside the shelter by myself, fighting with things, those twisty things in
the trees.” ( 119)

50. “My daddy says there’s things, what d’you call’em that make ink—squids that are
hundreds of yards long and eat whales whole.” (125)

51. “Maybe,” he said hesitantly, “maybe there is a beast.” (125)

52. “The trouble is: Are there ghosts, Piggy? Or beasts?” “Course there aren’t.” “Why
not?” “’Cos things wouldn’t make sense. Houses an’ streets, an’—TV—they
wouldn’t work.” (131)

53. “I’m scared of him,” said Piggy, “and that’s why I know him. If you’re
scared of someone you hate him but you can’t stop thinking about him.
You kid yourself he’s all right really, an’ then when you see him again;
it’s like asthma an’ you can’t breathe.” (132)

54. “Fat lot of good we are,” said Ralph. “Three blind mice. I’ll give up.” (132)

Beast from air

55. a parachuting dead body drifting down to the ground from a battle.

60. Ralph struck the skin off his knuckles. They did not seem to hurt.
“I’m chief. We’ve got to make certain. Can’t you see the mountain?
There’s no signal showing. There may be a ship out there. Are you all off
your rockers?” Mutinously, the boys fell silent or muttering.” (155)

Shadows and tall trees

1. Then there were his nails Ralph turned his hand over and examined them. They were
bitten down to the quick though he could not remember when he had restarted this habit
nor any time when he indulged it. (157)

excitement, grabbed Eric’s spear and jabbed at Robert with it.
“Kill him! Kill him!” (164)

5. “Someone’s got to go across the island and tell Piggy we’ll be back after
dark.” Simon pushed his way to Ralph’s elbow. “I’ll go if you like. I don’t mind,
honestly.” (168)

6. “I’m going up the mountain to look for the beast—now.” “I’m going up the mountain.”
The words came from Jack viciously, as though they were a curse. Ralph : “I don’t
mind.” Roger joined them (172)

7. “Ralph found himself taking giant strides among the ashes, heard other
creatures crying out and leaping and dared the impossible on the dark
slope” (177)
Gift for the darkness

8. “The beast had teeth,” said Ralph, “and big black eyes.” (178)

9. “He’s not a hunter. He’d never have got us meat. He isn’t a prefect
and we don’t know anything about him. He just gives orders and expects
people to obey for nothing. All this talk” (182)

10. “All this talk!” shouted Ralph. “Talk, talk! Who wanted it? Who called
the meeting?” Jack turned, red in the face, his chin sunk back. He glowered up under his
eyebrows. (182)

11. “Then Simon stood up and took the conch from Piggy “I think we ought to climb the
mountain.” (184)

12. “We got no fire on the mountain. But what’s wrong with a fire down
here? A fire could be built on them rocks. On the sand, even.” “But we’ve got to have a
list!” (188)

13. There’s you and me and Samneric and…” “Where’s Bill and Roger?” “I seen them
stealing off when we was gathering wood. They went that way. The same way as he went
himself.” “We can do all right on our own, can’t we?” (189)

14. “You don’t think he’s climbing the mountain?” Piggy broke into noisy laughter and
took more fruit. “He might be.” He gulped his mouthful. “He’s cracked.” (190)

16. “Then Jack found the throat and the hot blood spouted over his
hands.” (194)

17. “This head is for the beast. It’s a gift.” (197)

18. “We’ll raid them and take fire.” (196)

19. “I’m scared.” He saw Piggy look up; and blundered on.
“Not of the beast. I mean I’m scared of that too. But nobody else understands about the
fire. If someone threw you a rope when you were drowning. If a doctor said take this
because if you don’t take it you’ll die—you would, wouldn’t you? I mean?” “’Course I
would.” (200)

20. “Listen all of you. Me and my hunters, we’re living along the beach by
a flat rock. We hunt and feast and have fun. If you want to join my tribe
come and see us. Perhaps I’ll let you join. Perhaps not.” (201)
21. “Piggy stood above them on the platform, still holding the conch.” (203)

22. “The Lord of the Flies spoke in the voice of a schoolmaster.” (206)

23. “This is ridiculous. You know perfectly well you’ll only meet me down
there—so don’t try to escape!” (207)

A view to a death”

25. “What else is there to do?” (209)

26. “Who’s going to join my tribe?” Ralph made a sudden movement that became a
stumble. Some of the boys turned toward him. (215)

27. Simon was crying out something about a dead man on a hill. “Kill the beast! Cut his
throat! Spill his blood! Do him in!” (219)

The shell and the glasses

28. “That was Simon.” “You said that before.” “Piggy.” “Uh?” “That was murder.” “You
stop it!” said Piggy, shrilly. “What good’re you doing talking like that?”
(224)

29. “He’s going to beat Wilfred.” “What for?” Robert shook his head doubtfully.
“I don’t know. He didn’t say. He got angry and made us tie Wilfred up. He’s been”—he
giggled excitedly—“he’s been tied for hours, waiting—” (229)

30. “A savage raised his hand and the chief turned a bleak, painted face
toward him.” (230)

31. “—and then, the beast might try to come in. You remember how he
crawled—” (230)

32. Piggy handed Ralph his glasses and waited to receive back his sight.
The wood was damp; and this was the third time they had lighted it.
Ralph stood back, speaking to himself. “We don’t want another night without fire.” (232)

33. From his left hand dangled Piggy’s broken glasses. (242)
Castle Rock

34. “I got the conch. I’m going to that Jack Merridew an’ tell him, I am.” (246)

35. “Well, we won’t be painted,” said Ralph, “because we aren’t savages.”

(247)

36. “I’m calling an assembly.” Silence. (252)

37. “You could have had fire whenever you wanted. But you didn’t. You
came sneaking up like a thief and stole Piggy’s glasses!” (253)

38. Jack made a rush and stabbed at Ralph’s chest with his spear. Ralph
sensed the position of the weapon from the glimpse he caught of Jack’s
arm and put the thrust aside with his own butt. (254)

39. The rock struck Piggy a glancing blow from chin to knee; the conch
exploded into a thousand white fragments and ceased to exist. Piggy,
saying nothing, with no time for even a grunt, traveled through the air
sideways from the rock, turning over as he went. The rock bounded
twice and was lost in the forest. Piggy fell forty feet and landed on his
back across the square red rock in the sea. (260)

40. A hundred feet below them was the narrow causeway, then the stony
ground, then the grass dotted with heads, and behind that the forest.
“One heave,” cried Jack, exulting, “and wheee!” (152)

41. All leadership is lost.

42. The hangman’s horror clung round him. The chief said no more to him
but looked down at Samneric. “You got to join the tribe.” (162)

Cry of the Hunters

44. Ralph lay in a covert, wondering about his wounds. The bruised flesh
was inches in diameter over his right ribs, with a swollen and bloody scar
where the spear had hit him. (264)

45. Then there was that indefinable connection between himself and Jack; who therefore
would never let him alone; never. (265)

46. Lying there in the darkness, he knew he was an outcast. “ ‘Cos I had some
sense.”(267) – best sense ever
47. Because Jack and Roger force them to join the tribe.

48. “They hate you, Ralph. They’re going to do you.” “They’re going to hunt you
tomorrow.” (271)

49. “Roger sharpened a stick at both ends.” Roger sharpened a stick at both ends. Ralph
tried to attach a meaning to this but could not. (273)

50. They had smoked him out and set the island on fire. (283)

51. One of them came close to the officer and looked up. (289)

52. “We saw your smoke. What have you been doing? Having a war or
something?” Ralph nodded. (289)

53. The fire attracted him ,the irony is the whole island is now on fire

54. “I’m, I’m…” But there was no more to come. Percival Wemys Madison sought in his
head for an incantation that had faded clean away. (289)

55. He wept for piggy, Simons and that he was saved.
