The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Son of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs: to dislodge his antagonist; but all the while he was weakening

side of the trail.
Hidden there at last, safe from the prying eyes of searchers,
should they miss their fellow and return for him, the lad choked
the life from the body of his victim. At last he knew by the
sudden struggle, followed by limp relaxation, that the warrior
was dead. Then a strange desire seized him. His whole being
quivered and thrilled. Involuntarily he leaped to his feet and
placed one foot upon the body of his kill. His chest expanded.
