Anger adorns the brave. You are gaily laughing at me, though you feign to be angry and sullen. Hoho! Hahei! By means of heat and hammer I have achieved it, with stalwart blows I have shaped you; now let the red shame vanish, become as hard and cold as you can...." Mime is meanwhile revelling in dreams of the greatness which is to follow upon his acquisition of the Ring.
I almost began to regret the gentleness of my letter to Falkenberg; I might have made it a good deal sharper; now, perhaps, he would imagine I was too soft to stand up for myself. Why, he might even take it into his head to bear witness against me, and say I hadn't invented the machine at all! Hoho, Master Falkenberg, just try it on!
The westering sun began lengthening the shadows on the Inyan-kara, and with the cool of evening his strength began to revive. Suddenly all the ghost-people flew away, scattering over the Inyan-kara, screaming, "Hoho, hoho, hoho!" and White Otter sat up on his robe.
He got up, enquiring of his mother if she would swear to come up presently. "Well, good-bye," he said to Urquhart, and held out his hand. "Good night to you," said Urquhart. "Anyhow, you know the worst." But Lancelot shook his cautious head. "No," he said, "not the worst" and then with a deep chuckle, "but the best. Hoho! Two wives!" With that he went.
A radiant road lies open before me! Oh, to bathe in the fire! In the fire to find the bride! Hoho! Hoho! Hahei! Hahei! Merrily! Merrily! This time I shall lure a dear companion!" He sets the silver horn to his lips and gaily blowing the Lock-weise starts up the mountain and is lost among the swirling sanguine smoke-clouds.
Then occurred something very startling. A shout was heard: "Holdrio, hoho!" And then again: "Holdrio yoho-hoho o!" And again a third time: "Holdrio yoho yoho hoho o o!" The yodel was evidently sounding from the slope of the opposite hill.
If Plettau, like Janus, had had eyes in the back of his head, down below in the parade-ground he would have seen an array of wide-open eyes and gaping mouths. After a short interval he arose, picked up a big piece of white cardboard from the ground, and pointed to it as he brandished it in the air. Then he laid it down again, and once more he yodelled gaily: "Holdrio yoho yoho hoho o o!"
Then Siegfried seized some bits that were supposed to represent pieces of a sword, and sang: 'Heaho, heaho, hoho! Hoho, hoho, hoho, hoho! Hoheo, haho, haheo, hoho! And that was the end of the first act. It was all so artificial and stupid that I had great difficulty in sitting it out. But my friends begged me to stay, and assured me that the second act would be better.
'Have I got any one to send? 'But you don't mean to let a Christian soul die without the sacrament? 'I can't run off and leave him alone, and perhaps...he may recover. 'Don't you believe it... hoho... just listen to his breathing. That means that his inside is withering up. It's just as it was with my Walek last year when he was so ill.
Then he laughed out loud and said: "Here we are, the two of us, miles away in the middle of all India shooting game what? Desperately funny, isn't it? And hurrah for all the lands and kingdoms of the earth, and hurrah for all the pretty women, married or unmarried, far and near. Hoho! Nice thing for a man when a married woman proposes to him, isn't it a married woman?"
