The thing stands thus, Sahib, and I tell it to you because I know that an oath is binding upon a Feringhee, and that we may trust you. Had you been a lying Hindoo, though you had sworn by all the gods in their false temples, your blood would have been upon the knife, and your body in the water. But the Sikh knows the Englishman, and the Englishman knows the Sikh.
Elated with his success, he gave himself such airs that his English masters reproved him; and he left them in displeasure, vowing never to serve a Feringhee again.
Bobbachy Bahawder has seen the dreadful Feringhee, Gahagan Khan Gujputi, the elephant-lord, whose sword reaps the harvest of death; there is but one champion who can wear the papooshes of the elephant-slayer it is Bobbachy Bahawder!" "You speak truly, Puneeree Muckun, the Bahawder ruminates on the words of the unbeliever: he is an ostrich, and hatches the eggs of his thoughts."

"By de wheeles ob Juggannaut coachee," cried the shikaree, who had been listening, and understood the figurative dialogue; "dat be da goodee plan. Dese stork go back Calcutt surely dey go back. Dey carry letter to Feringhee Sahibs Sahibs dey know we here in prison dey come d'liva we vey dey affer get de letter ha! ha! ha!"
It is even as your sainted feringhee proverb says: 'Never put off till to-morrow the the man who may be done, to-day!" By EDISON MARSHALL From Everybody's Magazine An elephant is old on the day he is born, say the natives of Burma, and no white man is ever quite sure just what they mean.
'If, he continued, 'you are resolved to be traitors to me, at least enable me to die with honour. Support the brother of Futteh Khan in one last charge against these Feringhee dogs.
'I must search the house, he said; 'there are a party of fugitives hiding somewhere in this district, and the orders from Delhi are strict that every Feringhee is to be hunted down and sent there. 'You will find no one here, I said, 'but my women, one of whom is sick. 'I must see them, he said; and he knocked loudly at the door of the women's room, and ordered them to come out.
The next minute Spaniard and Feringhee were struggling for their lives, while tremendous seas were sweeping over the two ill-fated vessels. "The English ship went down, leaving only part of her mast to be seen, to which for a time a few seamen clung until one by one the waves swept them off, and out of the entire crew only a solitary sailor was left there.
How my old woman, Rotee Muckun, will be surprised when I bring home a couple of Feringhee wives, ha! ha!" "Fool!" said I, "be still! twelve men in the garrison there are twelve hundred! Gahagan himself is as good as a thousand men; and as for food, I saw with my own eyes five hundred bullocks grazing in the courtyard as I entered."
