'It is worth carrying, and worth fighting for. Then the robbers were away over the frosty road like a sudden blast of a wintry wind.

They wondered why he gazed at all so earnestly; and why his eyes grew so bright. Then he slapped the capteen, who was yet a boy, upon the back, and said: "Just the very place we want.

'I hope she told you about the lake and why the Capteen won't eat the fish there. They're too fat for his likeen.
