Here you need not be so careful about footmarks as on the other floors, which were all highly polished. “Look out for falls!” he shouted. Jerry turned and saw that they were on the very brink of a precipice over which the river was flowing. It was a nasty hole they were in.

If they were driven against any one of these it would mean instant shipwreck..
