This third letter did not resemble its two predecessors at least on the outside at all. It was a very little letter; not a quarter of the size of either of the others; and the seal wherewith it was sealed was not a tenth of the size of that of his Eminence; also, instead of being white like the Cardinal's, or whity-yellow like the Prelate's, it was rose-coloured, and delicately perfumed.
A little way off the crocodile lay blinking in the sun, with his sharp teeth and whity-yellow jaws wide open. At a signal from the princess the prince poured the water in the hole, and the moment it reached the brim the princess flung in the four-leaved plant. Would the charm work, or would the water trickle away slowly through the sand, and the prince fall a victim to that horrible monster?
But their favorite hunting grounds lay south of the Arkansas River of western Kansas and southeastern Colorado. It was a desert country, of whity-yellow sand and sharp bare hills, with the Rocky Mountains distant in the west, and the only green that of the trees and brush along the water-courses. Nevertheless it was a very good kind of country. It had plenty of buffalo.
Though the wayfarers, plodding through the dusty hoof-marks, were desultory, it was quiet for few hours even at night, and under our windows we waked to an eternal shuffling in the soft sand, the champing of bits, and guttural Arabic tones. R. and I leaned over the balcony. Women passed us wrapped in voluminous whity-yellow garments haiks black eyes and red slippers alone showing.

Burmans love it, and no feast is complete without it, indeed a packet of let-pet is an invitation to something festive. It is early afternoon and quite hot and still as we circle toward the shore where the red flag hangs drooping; people in gay clothes are dabbed about like little splashes of colour on the whity-yellow sand.
