A branch caught him, sending a burning pain up and down one leg.

A low branch caught and dragged this from her head.

He reached up, caught a three-inch branch, with a pull brought it crashing down.

Then, suddenly, the branch of a tree caught the howdah in the middle and swept it clear.

Taran saw the first branches catch fire, then the rest.

The branch caught it across the side of the head.

A branch caught, fire beginning to run back from its twigs to the main trunk.

He moved silently forward, caught a low branch of the tree, pulled himself up.
