[N.B. Further allusions are present in early drafts of the book but disappeared when the passages containing them were cut out. One of the most striking of these is to 2 Kings 2.23-24 in the "A" draft (p.350) where 'half-grown children' who are the predecessors of the Little Ones mock and stone Fane and are promptly slaughtered by a wild beast.
