in poison, when timber comes home he hears harry pope, his roomate, urgently calling for him. when timber enters harry's room, harry gives him a list of instructions on what to do and not to question it and he complies. then harry soon tells timber he has had a snake laying on his stomach for hours. timber has zero idea what to do until he figures out to call a doctor, ganderbai. dr. ganderbai gives harry a serum but doesn't know if it will work or not so he orders timber to go get some chloroform from his house while he stays there with harry. timber soon returns and they slowly start to put chloroform all over harry's bed. dr. ganderbai and timber eventually pull harry's sheet off very slowly and they revel nothing laying on harry's stomach or anywhere in his bed.
in this short story, harry takes the survival precautions of staying really still and not moving and he speaks below a whisper to try and not wake up the snake, even though it wasn't really there. harry may had been dreaming and thought he had felt a snake in his dream but it was a false perception of reality, he didn't actually check to see if it was there. harry had still taken the survival precautions so he wouldn't wake the snake and frighten the snake so it didn't bite him.
i would recommend this story to another person because it's good and short. it kinda teaches you to be careful of somethings even though they may or may not be real.
