Xactly , ' said Taffy . ` But we do n't want all those teeth : only put two . ' ` I 'll only put in one , ' said Tegumai . ` If this game of ours is going to be what I think it will , the easier we make our sound-pictures the better for everybody . ' And he drew . -LRB- 18 . -RRB- ` Now , we 've got it , ' said Tegumai , standing on one leg . ` I 'll draw 'em all in a string like fish . ' ` Had n't we better put a little bit of stick or something between each word , so 's they wo n't rub up against each other and jostle , same as if they were carps ? ' ` Oh , I 'll leave a space for that , ' said her Daddy . And very incitedly he drew them all without stopping , on a big new bit of birch-bark . -LRB- 19 . -RRB- ` Shu-ya-las ya-maru , ' said Taffy , reading it out sound by sound . ` That 's enough for to-day , ' said Tegumai . ` Besides , you 're getting tired , Taffy . Never mind , dear . We 'll finish it all to-morrow , and then we 'll be remembered for years and years after the biggest trees you can see are all chopped up for firewood . ' So they went home , and all that evening Tegumai sat on one side of the fire and Taffy on the other , drawing ya 's and yo 's and shu 's and shi 's in the smoke on the wall and giggling together till her Mummy said , ` Really , Tegumai , you 're worse than my Taffy . ' ` Please do n't mind , ' said Taffy . ` It 's only our secret-s ` prise , Mummy dear , and we 'll tell you all about it the very minute it 's done ; but please do n't ask me what it is now , or else I 'll have to tell . '
So her Mummy most carefully did n't ; and bright and early next morning XXXXX went down to the river to think about new sound pictures , and when Taffy got up she saw Ya-las -LRB- water is ending or running out -RRB- chalked on the side of the big stone water-tank , outside the Cave .
