The Bloodbottler
Suddenly, a tremendous thumping1 noise came from outside the cave entrance and a voice like
thunder shouted, ‘Runt! Is you there, Runt? I is hearing you jabbeling! Who is you jabbeling to,
Runt?’
‘Look out!’ cried the BFG. ‘It’s the Bloodbottler!’ But before he had finished speaking, the
stone was rolled aside and a fifty-foot giant, more than twice as tall and wide as the BFG, came
striding into the cave. He was naked except for a dirty little piece of cloth around his bottom.
Sophie was on the table-top. The enormous partly eaten snozzcumber was lying near her. She
ducked behind it.
The creature came clumping2 into the cave and stood towering over the BFG. ‘Who was you
jabbeling to in here just now?’ he boomed.
‘I is jabbeling to myself,’ the BFG answered.
‘Pilfflefizz!’ shouted the Bloodbottler. ‘Bugswallop!’ he boomed. ‘You is talking to a human
bean, that’s what I is thinking!’
‘No no!’ cried the BFG.
‘Yus yus!’ boomed the Bloodbottler. ‘I is guessing you has snitched away a human bean and
brought it back to your bunghole as a pet! So now I is winkling it out and guzzling3 it as extra snacks
before my supper!’
The poor BFG was very nervous. ‘There’s n-no one in here,’ he stammered4. ‘W-why don’t you
Heave me alone?’
The Bloodbottler pointed5 a finger as large as a tree- trunk at the BFG. ‘Runty little
scumscrewer!’ he shouted. ‘Piffling little swishfiggler! Squimpy little bottle- wart6! Prunty little
pogswizzler! I is now going to search the primroses7!’ He grabbed the BFG by the arm. ‘And you is
going to help me do it. Us together is going to winkle out this tasteful little human bean!’ he shouted.
