 The last bar that would make the opening large enough to permit his body to pass had been removed as Tarzan heard the warriors2 whispering beyond the stone door of his prison. Long since had the rope of hide been braided. To secure one end to the remaining bar that he had left for this purpose was the work of but a moment, and while the warriors whispered without, the brown body of the ape-man slipped through the small aperture3 and disappeared below the sill.
 
Tarzan's escape from the cell left him still within the walled area that comprised the palace and temple grounds and buildings. He had reconnoitered as best he might from the window after he had removed enough bars to permit him to pass his head through the opening, so that he knew what lay immediately before him—a winding4 and usually deserted5 alleyway leading in the direction of the outer gate that opened from the palace grounds into the city.
 
The darkness would facilitate his escape. He might even pass out of the palace and the city without detection. If he could elude7 the guard at the palace gate the rest would be easy. He strode along confidently, exhibiting no fear of detection, for he reasoned that thus would he disarm8 suspicion. In the darkness he easily could pass for a Ho-don and in truth, though he passed several after leaving the deserted alley6, no one accosted9 or detained him, and thus he came at last to the guard of a half-dozen warriors before the palace gate. These he attempted to pass in the same unconcerned fashion and he might have succeeded had it not been for one who came running rapidly from the direction of the temple shouting: "Let no one pass the gates! The prisoner has escaped from the pal-ul-JA!"
