They came Kadyriath to Arthur and spoke to him. "Lord," said he, "behold, yonder is Guenever, and none with her save only one maiden." "Command Gildas, the son of Caw, and all the scholars of the court," said Arthur, "to attend Guenever to the palace." And they did so. Then they all set forth, holding converse together concerning the head of the stag, to whom it should be given.
Then all the scene was shaken with a babel of bird notes in which you could hear a cardinal whistling, and a blue finch piping. Back somewhere among the high branches a dove cooed and then a horse neighed shrilly. That set a blackbird crying, "T'check," and a whole flock answered it. The crows began to caw and a lamb bleated.
She had no sooner done this than the crows began to chatter and caw, and the owls to cry; and each time that the cup ascended, they all raised themselves upon their feet and elevated their wings. When the cup came into her hand from the ceiling the third time, she looked toward the perches and said: "Peace children."
Then gravely "The matter is so serious, Caw, that I must ask you who has charge of the papers and so on upstairs?" "I, sir." "And to whom are you responsible?" "My master and Mr. Alan Craig till the clock stops, sir." After a moment's pause Bullard said "Yes, of course, we are aware that all here was gifted to Mr. Alan; also Mr. Craig mentioned the clock.
"Oh, pray don't," said the Blackbird, as he opened out his wings as if for flight; "you make me feel quite nervous." The Rook gave a caw which he intended to be a sympathetic one, but there was a little falter in it, which, had he been a human being instead of a bird, might have been mistaken for a smothered laugh. The birds now rose on the wing, and together flew homewards.

There was no keyhole, no crevice whereby she might know whether it was light or dark on the other side. Caw had spoken that morning of making a peep-hole in the door. She would have given much for one now.
Since I've been lying here, I've watched them every night; and, do you know, they really do come and perch, all of them, just about locking-up time; and then first there's a regular chorus of caws; and then they stop a bit, and one old fellow, or perhaps two or three in different trees, caw solos; and then off they all go again, fluttering about and cawing anyhow till they roost."
"The dirty hound!" growled Caw. "I fell, feeling horribly sick, and as I lay I saw him toss the revolver into a seal hole. Then, as he stood staring at me, I must have fainted." "The beast!" cried Marjorie. "When I came to myself how long I remained unconscious, I never learned exactly I was on a sort of bed, and an aged Eskimo was bending over me.
Still somehow she did not look like the swells. Except that once, when she was got up regardless of expense for the ball, she always had the country mouse look about her. She hadn't 'The 'Jenny Say Caw, as Macrae calls it? said his mother. 'Well, I can endure that! You need not look so disgusted, Gill. You didn't hear of her getting into any scrape, did you?
