But Churi grew quite wild if anyone said a word against his plan, and they did not care to make him angry now, for no one could manage so many soldiers as he had to look after, and only thus could the victory be won. The Middle Lotters had naturally joined the Lower Wooders against the Upper Wooders and so they were now a large army.
At this I strove to rise in sheer amazement and thus found my head pillowed in her lap. "How did I save you?" I demanded bitterly. "I that am a craven!" "By giving me the chance to reach my little churi. However, I was never once afraid of the beast." "I was!" I confessed miserably. "Afraid beyond words!" "But you comes running back, and very fierce too!" "I meant to kill him!"
But the latter only pinched his ear a little and said: "Churi, Churi! this time you get off better than you deserve, for I know now who got the grapes last year, and I also know who wanted to get them again a few days ago. If from now on, even one single little bunch is missing, I shall hold you responsible, and you will be surprised at what will happen to you, think of that! Now go."
"Count, grannam, count!" she cried imperiously, "and if't is not enough I've my little churi for the first as dare touch me!"
For a long, long time he saw the white handkerchiefs wave, and he waved his in answer, until the carriage, down below at the foot of the hill, turned around the corner and disappeared into the woods. But when the fleet horses, soon after, reached the first houses of the Middle Lot, there was another halt. From the moment that Erick had disappeared, Churi had looked like a picture of horror.
Now then come forward slow, my covey, slow, and gi'e us a peep o' you churi step cautious now or I'll be the gory death o' you!" Not a little perturbed by these ferocious expressions, I advanced slowly and very unwillingly into the firelight and, halting well out of his reach, spoke in tone as conciliatory as possible. "Pray pardon my intrusion, but "
Big Churi was running after Kaetheli and as she knew what heavy blows from those big fists would fall upon her back if she should be caught, she rushed over the field toward the hedge and into Marianne's little garden, almost throwing down Erick on her way.
She gives me to her grandson Joseph for his mort, but I gives Joseph a touch of my little churi and runs away and happens on Peregrine. But she follows me with Jochabed and Bennigo, that I hates more than Joseph, and she was for going to force me to take him could give most money, and Peregrine has most, so she weds me to Peregrine." "Wed you?" exclaimed the Tinker, blinking.
Another time a boy with a harmonica had approached the playing children; it was Erick's turn just then to seek the hiders, but threatenings and pleadings were of no avail, he did not seek any more. He placed himself in front of the boy and listened to him; there he remained standing and did not stir. Churi in his hiding-place was about to burst with anger because Erick stopped seeking.
Last evening Neighbor Rudi, who belongs to Churi's officers, told me that it was not on account of the fight that they were going away in the morning; but that they were going into the Mayor's vineyard and were going to take his early grapes; that Churi had persuaded Erick to come along, because he wants to send him ahead through the vineyard, because a trap might be set there.
