Temper is like a bad dog about a lodge no friends will come to see us when he is about. "Curlew did his best but finally said: 'I'll go and try to find somebody else to help you. I guess I am too small and weak. I shall come back to you. He was standing close to OLD-man when he spoke, and OLD-man reached out and grabbed the Curlew by the bill.
"Poor little Red Fox had stood there all the time, and OLD-man never noticed that the wind had changed and was coming from the north. Yes, poor Red Fox stood there and spoke no word; said nothing at all, even when OLD-man had finished. "'Hi, there, you! what's the matter with you? Are you sorry that we have meat? Say, answer me! "But the Red Fox was frozen stiff was dead.
The impact of Finn's landing on the old-man was terrific; but, be it noted, the kangaroo was not bowled over, though he did sway for a moment on his haunches. But it was a terribly punishing hold upon his neck that Finn's jaws had taken, and Finn's great claws were planted firmly in the old-man's side and back.
"It is the wrong time of year to talk about berries," said War Eagle, that night in the lodge, "but I shall tell you why your mothers whip the buffalo-berries from the bushes. OLD-man was the one who started it, and our people have followed his example ever since. Ho! OLD-man made a fool of himself that day. "It was the time when buffalo-berries are red and ripe.
"When I told you the story of how OLD-man made the world over, after the water had made its war upon it, I told you how the first man and woman were made. There is another story of how the first man found his wife, and I will tell you that. "After OLD-man had made a man to look like himself, he left him to live with the Wolves, and went away.
I shall not stop running while the night lasts, and I shall stay in the mountains all the time when the Sun is at work in the daytime! "Away he went running as the Buffalo runs straight ahead, looking at nothing, hearing nothing, stopping at nothing. When day began to break OLD-man was far from the Sun's lodge and he hid himself in a deep gulch among some bushes that grew there.
Indeed, the marsupial animals of Australia are of almost endless variety, ranging from a very tiny animal, no bigger than our field-mouse, to the great old-man kangaroo, which measures between seven and eight feet from the nose to the tip of the tail.
Don't you know that I light all of my lodge every day and search it carefully? Don't you know that nothing can hide from me and live? I shall not harm you this time, but I warn you now, that if you ever steal from me again, I will hurt you badly. Now go, and don't let me catch you stealing again! "Away went OLD-man, and on toward the west went the busy Sun. That is all.
"Man-that-draws-the-handcart," said the chief angrily, "bring back my flour." George stopped, and opened his coat. He pointed toward his heart and said, "Old-man, if you want to kill me, shoot me, but you shall not take away my flour and leave me to starve." "Very well," said the chief sternly, "then, Man-that-draws-the-handcart, you shall go south."
'This whole day long we have fought to kill a Person, but we have all been killed, I am afraid. "'That is strange, said OLD-man; 'how can one Person kill so many men? Who is this Person, tell me his name! but the man didn't answer he was dead.
