Only when Jack himself roused a gaudy bird from a primitive nest of sticks was the silence shattered and echoes set ringing by a harsh cry that seemed to come out of the abyss of ages. Jack himself shrank at this cry with a hiss of indrawn breath‚ and for a minute became less a hunter than a furtive thing‚ ape-like

    on its own. The ego has the super-ego and the id telling it what to do‚ and the ego has to balance out what they both want.
