CHEE-CHEE stood outside the Doctor's door, keeping everybody away till he woke up. Then John Dolittle told the monkeys that he must now go back to Puddleby. They were very surprised at this; for they had thought that he was going to stay with them forever. And that night all the monkeys got together in the jungle to talk it over. And the Chief Chimpanzee rose up and said,
And when that didn't seem to work, I went on talking about our preparations for the voyage. "But you see, Stubbins," said he as we rose from the table and Dab-Dab and Chee-Chee began to clear away, "I don't know where to go now. I feel sort of lost since Miranda brought me this news. On this voyage I had planned going to see Long Arrow. I had been looking forward to it for a whole year.
Let's hope it stops before long, or we won't be able to get even nuts and fruit to eat everything in the island will perish Chee-Chee, what luck did you have?" "None, Doctor. I climbed to every peak and pinnacle I could see. I searched every hollow and cleft. But not one place could I find where men might be hidden."
Founded on fact. "CHICKADEE-DEE-DEE-DEE! Chickadee-dee-dee-dee! Chicka " "Cheerup, cheerup, chee-chee! Cheerup, cheerup, chee-chee!" "Ter-ra-lee, ter-ra-lee, ter-ra-lee!" "Rap-atap-atap-atap!" went the woodpecker; "Mrs. Chickadee may speak first." "Friends," began Mrs. Chickadee, "why do you suppose I called you together?" "Because it's the day before Christmas," twittered Snow Bunting.
So the Doctor told Chee-Chee to pull up the anchor and the voyage began. NOW for six whole weeks they went sailing on and on, over the rolling sea, following the swallow who flew before the ship to show them the way. At night she carried a tiny lantern, so they should not miss her in the dark; and the people on the other ships that passed said that the light must be a shooting star.
Boys aren't like ducklings they have to be taken care of till they're quite old.... I wish Chee-Chee were here. He would soon find the man. Good old Chee-Chee! I wonder how he's getting on!" "If we only had Polynesia with us," said the white mouse. "SHE would soon think of some way. Do you remember how she got us all out of prison the second time? My, but she was a clever one!"
Murgatroyd had no more inherent resistance than a man. "Chee-chee!" he chattered urgently. "Chee-chee-chee!" "It's got him," said Calhoun. He felt sickened. "It'll have me. Because I can't synthesize anything as complex as the computer says is needed to control the molecular population that makes paras!" Murgatroyd chattered again. He was indignant.
"Chee-chee!" A startled voice came out of the speaker: "What's that?" "Chee," said Murgatroyd zestfully. The communicator was talking to him. Murgatroyd adored three things, in order. One was Calhoun. The second was coffee. The third was pretending to converse like a human being. The speaker said explosively, "You there, identify yourself!" "Chee-chee-chee-chee!" observed Murgatroyd.
"Yes," sighed Polynesia, shaking the rain oft her feathers, "this is England all right You can tell it by the beastly climate." "Oh, but fellows," cried Jip, as he sniffed up the air in great gulps, "it has a SMELL a good and glorious smell! Excuse me a minute: I see a water-rat." "Sh! Listen!" said Chee-Chee through teeth that chattered with the cold. "There's Puddleby church-clock striking four.
When Calhoun did so, Murgatroyd clung to him pathetically and said "Chee-chee!" and again "Chee-chee!" with the intonation of one telling of incredible horrors and disasters endured. And as a matter of fact the escape of a small animal like Murgatroyd was remarkable. He'd escaped the trampling hoofs of at least hundreds of charging animals.
