A short story in the Alan Quatermain series, where Harry joins his famous adventurer father on a journey of thrils and danger.
The oxen, which were as usual tied to the disselboom of the Scotch cart, were very restless—they kept snuffling and blowing, and rising up and lying down again, so I at once suspected that they must wind something. Presently I knew what it was that they winded, for within fifty yards of us a lion roared, not very loud, but quite loud enough to make my heart come into my mouth. - Excerpt from A Tale of Three Lions.
