 Meriem returned slowly toward the tree in which she had left her skirt, her shoes and her stockings. She was singing blithely1; but her song came to a sudden stop when she came within sight of the tree, for there, disporting2 themselves with glee and pulling and hauling upon her belongings3, were a number of baboons4. When they saw her they showed no signs of terror. Instead they bared their fangs7 and growled8 at her. What was there to fear in a single she-Tarmangani? Nothing, absolutely nothing.
 
In the open plain beyond the forest the hunters were returning from the day's sport. They were widely separated, hoping to raise a wandering lion on the homeward journey across the plain. The Hon. Morison Baynes rode closest to the forest. As his eyes wandered back and forth9 across the undulating, shrub10 sprinkled ground they fell upon the form of a creature close beside the thick jungle where it terminated abruptly11 at the plain's edge.
 
He reined12 his mount in the direction of his discovery. It was yet too far away for his untrained eyes to recognize it; but as he came closer he saw that it was a horse, and was about to resume the original direction of his way when he thought that he discerned a saddle upon the beast's back. He rode a little closer. Yes, the animal was saddled. The Hon. Morison approached yet nearer, and as he did so his eyes expressed a pleasurable emotion of anticipation
