Thas was Deroulede's stronghold: the people of Paris, whom he had loved through all their infamies, and whom he had succoured and helped in their private need; and above all the women of Paris, whose children he had caused to be tended in the hospitals which he had built for them this they had not yet forgotten, and Merlin knew it.
Kamelillo waded in, and looked at the harpoons, and shook his head, for he knew the laws and rights of the trade. "No," he says. "Thas your whale." "Been cast up, have ye?" says the steersman, looking around. "We struck that whale ten miles out. We comes up quiet, and I see that bamboo sticking in her, with that hen squatting on it.
But Kreps took off his spectacles and wiped them, and he says: "Ach, Liebchen!" he says. "She iss too much." "Thas whale!" says Kamelillo. "Thas all right!" "Liebchen iss too much of her," says Kreps very dignified, and stalked to the camp. "Thas whale!" says Kamelillo. "Thas all right!" He chopped the jam that afternoon, and it floated out in the night or early morning with the ebb.
"You you you're keeping it for yourself!" "Don't be such a fool, Louis. You know why I'm keeping it. If only you'd stop drinking for a day or two your mind would come clear and you'd talk to me." "Gi' m' my money, I tell you! Thas' why you hooked on to me, at first. You knew I was a gentleman! You guessed I'd plenty of money!
But there were two harpoons, more than the bamboo, sticking in her very deep, and the lines were hitched to a longboat, the longboat coming inshore now full of men. Veronica squatting on the thwart of the same, comfortable and dignified. Kamelillo says, "Whale ain't got sense, thas whale!" And Kreps says, "Ach, Liebchen!" She struck her last flurry, and filled the air with spray.
"Has she?" significantly, and Hermon raised his eyebrows. "Are they still friends, then? I thought she only knew him slightly." "Thas was at the beginning," and Lorraine glanced at him with the smile deepening in her eyes. "There always has to be a beginning doesn't there?"
"It iss not of use," said Kreps, and he sighed. "You understand not de yearning, de ideal. Listen! Liebchen, she iss de abstraction, de principle. Aber no. You cannot. De soul iss alone, iss not comprehend." "All right," says Kamelillo. "You look here. Go see thas girl whale on a bamboo raft. No good sit on log all night, sing hoohoo song." Kreps was taken with that notion.
With a cry the girl darted for a glass of water, but when she came back, terrified, he was smiling: "I'm all right don't worry. I thought thas sun to-day was going to be too much for me."
The sheriff rolled over after the manner of apple-shaped bodies and sat up on the end of his spine rubbing his eyes. Then, he recollected the dignity of his office and got groggily to his feet, steadying himself by clutches at the tent flap. Then, he emitted a hiccough. "'Scuse m'," he said thickly. "I'm not well, thas ish not really well! Will one of y' pleash gimme a drink o' water?
"Thas was dear of you," she said; "but of course I knew that you would." "I hoped so. I told myself over and over, you must know it had all happened without my knowledge." Lorraine had no mind to make light of the matter. She felt she would hold him better by simply leaving it alone, and letting his own feelings work on her side.
