Pig couldn't rid her children of these boorish ways. But she shouldn't be blamed for that. It must be remembered that she had seven youngsters, all of the same age. At least, Mrs. Pig did what she could to make Grunty's lot easier. "Don't feel unhappy!" she said to him one day as he picked himself up, whimpering, after a hard knock.

The dogs were whimpering at their task. More than once they stopped, exhausted by the wind against which they were battling. Their eyes turned dumbly to McRae for instructions.

The wet nurse is quite another affair; she came of her own accord to offer her milk for sale. What the other her own child was to do, no one cared.
He couldn't climb up the bank to find his own trail and follow it back home if he wanted to.
