Could any words be more vitally realistic, David? Tell your father what you have seen the token of His covenant! The token of His covenant!"
"So I suppose," said the king smiling; "but I mean, I mean what wild things have you shot?" "I have shot nothing but arrows," answered the bowman obstinately.
