Not that Rinka had any special regard for Ondikik, but it afforded her intense pleasure merely to relieve suffering in any way so strong was the weakness for which she got credit!
For instance, there's the young brave Alizay, an' that pleasant craitur Idazoo, that's thinkin' about marriage just now; an' there's Magadar and Cowlik, and Oolalik and Nootka, and Ondikik and Rinka, and Anteek and young Uleeta; an' I'm not sure that there may not be some more of you in the same case. If so, all right; the more the merrier.
They call him Ondikik, and he would hev kicked altogether if it had not been for the nursin' so they say o' that nice little craitur they call Rinka, or something like that. The other case is that lively stripling Anteek. He's scarcely more than a boy yet, but young Uleeta, as they call the girl, seems to think that no great objection.
About nine or ten years appears to be the age at which limitations commence. Married men, until from thirty-five to forty years of age, are still forbidden the red kangaroo, the young of any kangaroo from the pouch, the fish kelapko, the shag yarrilla, the coote, the white crane, the turtle rinka, the native companion, the eagle, etc.
The woman who thus expressed her forebodings was a mild young creature, so gentle and inoffensive and yielding that she was known throughout her tribe by the name of Rinka, a name which was meant to imply weakness.
"But tell me, before I speak more, is Rinka dead?" "No, she is getting well." "That is good," he continued, in a tone of satisfaction. "Old Uleeta, I doubt not, told you of the fight I had with the Fire-spouters?" "She did," cried Anteek, with delight, "and how you gave them sore hearts!" "H'm! they gave me a sore heart too; but I don't care now!
Two venerable harpers played on their national instruments near the gate by which he entered; a number of religious in their robes, with a huge cross at their head, chanted as they went; forty young girls, dressed in white, danced the ancient Rinka, scattering flowers as they danced.
"Yes, Gartok will get himself killed at last," said old Uleeta, drawing her finger across the frizzling steak and licking it, for her appetite was sharp-set and she was impatient, "He was always a stubborn boy." "But he is strong, and a good fighter," remarked Rinka, as she spread a seal-skin boot over her knee with the intention of patching it.
What Christian said was known only to Rinka, the eldest of the fox terriers, who had a habit of sitting in the chair at which Christian, knelt to say her prayers, and would then, with her bland and balmy smile, extort confidences denied to any other living creature. On Christian fell the brunt of the arrangements, the decisions, worst of all, the dismissals.
It is even possible that the ensuing lightning dart for freedom might have succeeded, but for the unfortunate fidelity of her allies, Rinka and Tashpy. The one sprang at her brief skirt and caught it, the other got between her legs. She fell, and was delivered again into the hands of the enemy. Richard was not a bully, but Mrs.
