I swung the hammer and hit him on the back of the head

In the light from outside, I saw the Martian studying the curate's head

It was like a black snake moving its head from side to side.

I went into the kitchen and saw its head looking in through the hole.

I moved forwards, saying, 'Good dog!' very softly, but it suddenly pulled his head back and disappeared.
