Nearer to God







Charlie, please.
You're both being foolish.

But the air is lovely.
Anyway, there's no room in there.

Please! Come in.

No violence, please.

Let me hang on with two hands
or I will fall.

Englishman, sahib!

Come, there is room up here!
Put your foot on the window.

Come!

What are you doing?


I'm going nearer to God.

Charlie! Be careful!

Let go. Let go!
Let go!


Oh, dear!

Hello.

You see?
It is most comfortable.

Sahib?
Are you a Christian?

Yes, I'm a Christian.

I know a Christian.
She drinks blood.
Blood of Christ. Every Sunday.

Charlie!

It's all right, sahib.
It's very safe.
Bend!
Pray to God, sahib.
Now is when it is best to be Hindu.
