Sukreep issues his orders, and then leads Pipeck to an eminence from which they can best view the maneuvers.  The army divides into two forces, which then lock in mock battle.  It is an extraordinary sight that Pipeck witnesses.  Some of the monkeys dart up into the air, from where they rain down rocks on each other, or engage in desperate hand to hand combat; others fight on the sea, lashing the surface into a tornado of foam; yet others create artificial fire, or blot out the sun, or call up tempests, performing, in short, marvels without name or number.  The noise of this battle shakes the earth to its foundations and rises as high as the fourth heaven, where the angels hide their eyes in fear and flee behind the stars for protection.  Pipeck is highly impressed.
