"I am a fair length a fair length," said Kaa with a little pride. "But for all that, it is the fault of this new-grown timber. I came very near to falling on my last hunt very near indeed and the noise of my slipping, for my tail was not tight wrapped around the tree, waked the Bandar-log, and they called me most evil names."
But Miss Peggy might say to Susan later, with a bright, pitying smile: "Alice will ROAR when I tell her about this! Lord and Lady Merridew, that's simply delicious! I love it!" "Bandar-log," Bocqueraz called them, and Susan often thought of the term in these days.
When the evening came he dressed with his usual care, verified the hour of his engagement, and went out to dine with the Loftuses. What the Bandar-log think now the jungle will think later. Maxim of the Bandar-log, RUDYARD KIPLING. It was Sybell Loftus's first season in London since her second marriage with Mr. Doll Loftus.
The Bandar-log have taken him beyond the river to the monkey city to the Cold Lairs. They may stay there for a night, or ten nights, or an hour. I have told the bats to watch through the dark time. That is my message. Good hunting, all you below!" "Full gorge and a deep sleep to you, Rann," cried Bagheera.
"Our man-cub is in the hands of the Bandar-log now, and we know that of all the Jungle-People they fear Kaa alone." "They fear me alone. They have good reason," said Kaa. "Chattering, foolish, vain vain, foolish, and chattering, are the monkeys. But a man-thing in their hands is in no good luck. They grow tired of the nuts they pick, and throw them down.
All this, man-cub, came of thy playing with the Bandar-log." "True, it is true," said Mowgli sorrowfully. "I am an evil man-cub, and my stomach is sad in me." "Mf! What says the Law of the Jungle, Baloo?" Baloo did not wish to bring Mowgli into any more trouble, but he could not tamper with the Law, so he mumbled: "Sorrow never stays punishment. But remember, Bagheera, he is very little."
"Beyond doubt then it is no small thing that takes two such hunters leaders in their own jungle I am certain on the trail of the Bandar-log," Kaa replied courteously, as he swelled with curiosity. "Indeed," Baloo began, "I am no more than the old and sometimes very foolish Teacher of the Law to the Seeonee wolf-cubs, and Bagheera here "
They talk and talk and talk they're just like Kipling's bandar-log What is it? "See us rise in a flung festoon Half-way up to the jealous moon. Don't you wish you could know all about art and economics as we do? That's what they say. Umph!"
Hast thou ever heard me speak of the Bandar-log till today?" "No," said Mowgli in a whisper, for the forest was very still now Baloo had finished. "The Jungle-People put them out of their mouths and out of their minds. They are very many, evil, dirty, shameless, and they desire, if they have any fixed desire, to be noticed by the Jungle People.
There is no nagging afterward. Mowgli laid his head down on Bagheera's back and slept so deeply that he never waked when he was put down in the home-cave. Road-Song of the Bandar-Log Here we go in a flung festoon, Half-way up to the jealous moon! Don't you envy our pranceful bands? Don't you wish you had extra hands? Wouldn't you like if your tails were so Curved in the shape of a Cupid's bow?
