122 PINOCCHIO looking back they saw a little boy who exclaimed, as he jumped from a rock into the sea: “I will save my papa! " Pinocchio, being made of wood, floated easily and he swam like a fish. At one moment they saw him disappear under the water, carried down by the fury of the waves; and next he reappeared struggling with a leg or an arm. At last they lost sight of him, and he was seen no more. ‘Poor boy!” said the fishermen who were collected on the shore, and murmuring a prayer they returned home.
