I can feel the clutch now, when I think of it. Why
do you want to find the chiling Rait?
Like damn-foolyou thought you could steal from
him!
He lay in myarms like a child, and once or twice I
thought he tried to speak. I crept through the dark and Grim followed. So we removed
the wheels and dumped thebarrow into a stream, where the reeds concealed it. I was
all right; Id a letter for the Kun-Dun.
He followedRait sahib across the border, beyond
Gyangtse, to the land of U.
Well for us that we had brought
Tsang-yang!
It did not sound like a cry for help; it was more
defiant thanthat, but the note was desperate. It made our Tsang-yang and
Tsang-Mondrong almost friendly, sinceit gave them a grievance in
common.
But the worst of it was that Tsang-yangs
semi-western air ofindependence was beginning to return. He lay in myarms like a
child, and once or twice I thought he tried to speak.
But our determination to save the ponies had an
unforeseen result.
The caravan proceedeth, and the dogs lick, each
hisown wounds, in the dust. I aint got no copyright on the name, you understand.
That is Tibetan abjectness of white flag, belly upward,all four feet in air! He
cured the King of the United States of leprosy. He followedRait sahib across the
border, beyond Gyangtse, to the land of U. No need, therefore, to goto him; you have
come to him, .
Theres old books in thatplace that ud fetch a
fortune in New York.
But it was doubtless he who tried to poison
thechiling.

babu.
He was Tsang-Mondrong,whom we thought we had left
safely cared for in the Delhi jail!
For several minutes my senses reeled before the
storm. He was Tsang-Mondrong,whom we thought we had left safely cared for in the
Delhi jail!
We stood them both in front of us and sat down with
our backsagainst the loads. And now another thing is clear to me: thatchiling is a
crafty reader of mens minds! Well for us that we had brought Tsang-yang!
