'Bong jour, marky, says I. 'Good morning no headache, says he. So I said I had one, and how I must have been uncommon queer the night afore; but they both declared I didn't show no signs of having had too much, but took my liquor as grave as a judge. "'So, says the marky, 'Deuceace has been with you; we met him in the Palais Royal as we were coming from breakfast. Has he settled with you?
I'm a tryin' to learn it, you see, with a view to bein' more sosherbler. Bong jore" And thus took his departure. After this we saw him frequently. In fact it became his habit to follow Mademoiselle Esmeralda in all her visits to our apartment.
With a small party, consisting of convicts and their guards, he landed at Redcliff, now known as Humpy Bong, a peninsula which juts out into Moreton Bay a few miles above the mouth of the Brisbane. Here the settlement remained for a few months, but afterwards it was moved twenty miles up the river to that pleasant bend which is now occupied by the city of Brisbane.
But, being just as hungry as he ought to be on so stimulating a morning, he did see, and note with interest, some bundles of fresh hay on the other side of the fence. Now, Bong was no thief. But hay had always seemed to him a free largess, like grass and water, and this looked like very good hay.
Each apostle based her claim on the superior virtue and attainments of her clergy, and clenched the business with a threat of hell-fire. 'Pas bong pretres ici, said the Presbyterian, 'bong pretres en Ecosse. And the postmaster's daughter, taking up the same weapon, plied me, so to speak, with the butt of it instead of the bayonet.
I protest there is nothing like the virtue of English women. "You have only arrived to-day, and you came to see me? That was very kind. N'est-ce pas que c'etoit bong de Mouseer le Collonel, mademoiselle? Madamaselle Lebrun, le Collonel Newcome, mong frere." Have you had a pleasant voyage? Did you come by St. Helena? Oh, how I envy you seeing the tomb of that great man!
Hand me over that raspberry jam, please, said the Monarch. 'Bong! Bawong! There goes the half-hour. I knew it was. Angelica ran, and ran, and ran, and ran.
The Râjas at Pĕkan, however, were meanwhile mustering their men, and, when Wan Bong reached Kuâla Tĕmbĕling, he received the unwelcome intelligence that his forces had fallen back some sixty miles to Tanjong Gâtal, before an army under the command of Che’ Wan Âhman and Che’ Wan Da.
And now let's talk of something that doesn't leave a bad taste in the mouth." The Cadi undoubtedly was more at home with reminiscences of nights at the Queensland Club and moonlight picnics at lovely Humpy Bong and champagne spreads in a Government launch than at dispensing law in the Carpentaria district. And he had eager listeners.
Raving and bellowing, he plunged this way and that, striving in vain to wrench himself free from that incomprehensible, snake-like thing which had fastened upon him. Bong, trumpeting savagely, braced himself with widespread pillars of legs, and between them it seemed that the steel fence must go down under such cataclysmic shocks as it was suffering.
