And Fecske really did seize the fox; but the fox in his turn seized Fecske, and bit his ear so savagely that the dog immediately let go again: so that was all poor Fecske got. And now the fox, with all his might, made straight for the Berettyo. The crafty old fellow had succeeded in checkmating all his pursuers and reaching his lurking-place. The hounds were now far behind him.
And now it was easy to perceive that his pace was diminishing, as he ran in and out among the haycocks; soon he must be completely surrounded. "Seize him, Fecske! seize him, Rajkó! seize him, Armida!" resounded from all sides. The dogs rushed after him with all their might.
Now Count Gregory's Armida got nearest to him. "Bravo Armida! The victory is yours." Another leap. The fox suddenly crouched down, and Armida bounded over him, only perceiving when she had run twenty paces further that the fox had remained behind. And now they all suddenly turned to the right. "Seize him, Fecske!" cried Mike Kis.
Down Fecske, down sir!" I have arranged a great fox hunt in your ladyship's honour for to-morrow. We are all fox hunters here. I hope your ladyship will take part in it?" "I don't know how to ride," replied the child-wife simply. "Oh! that's nothing, we will teach you. I have got a good nag who is as gentle as a lamb. We won't let your ladyship go till we have taught you."
And yet the very best hounds of Squire John's Cziczke, the two white ones, and Rajkó, Matyi, big Ordas, Michael Kis's Fecske, and Count Gregory's Armida, to say nothing of the whole canine army behind them, were hard upon his traces. The fox began to go slower and slower.
