It was in consequence of a physical feeling a cold shivering caused by the damp sea-fog that Snowball had been disturbed from his sleep; and which, on his awaking, kept him for some minutes oscillating in a sort of ague, his ivories "dingling" against each other with a continuous rattle that resembled the clattering of some loose bolt in a piece of machinery out of repair.
"Where shall we go?" quavered Dorothy, sitting on a log with the dingue in her lap. One thing was certain; this mammoth-ridden land was no place for women, and I told her so. We placed the dingue in a basket and tied it around the leading mule's neck. Immediately the dingue, alarmed, began dingling like a cow-bell.
The other boys also succeeded in starting well on the trail. They had not gone very far, however, before a small grey wolf, that had been hidden in one of the den-like recesses in the rocks, now thoroughly alarmed by the dingling of so many bells and the sounds of so many voices, suddenly sprang from his retreat, which was in the cliffs on the other side beyond the guide.
Well, up and up and up went Jimmie, pulled by the kite, until he was quite high in the air, hanging dingling, dangling down O! by his yellow heels. Oh, it was a perfectly dreadful position to be in! really it was, and I'm not fooling a bit, honestly. "Oh, oh! Save him!" cried Lulu. "Yes, somebody get him down; please do!" added Alice, flapping her wings.
