He was quiet for a little , thinking of the last words of the Lone Wolf , which you , of course , remember . `` Now Akela said to me many foolish things before he died , for when we die our stomachs change . He said ... None the less , I AM of the Jungle ! '' In his excitement , as he remembered the fight on Waingunga bank , he shouted the last words aloud , and a wild buffalo-cow among the reeds sprang to her knees , snorting , `` Man ! '' `` Uhh ! '' said Mysa the Wild Buffalo -LRB- Mowgli could hear him turn in his wallow -RRB- , `` THAT is no man . It is only the hairless wolf of the Seeonee Pack . On such nights runs he to and fro . '' `` Uhh ! '' said the cow , dropping her head again to graze , `` I thought it was Man . '' `` I say no . Oh , Mowgli , is it danger ? '' lowed Mysa . `` Oh , Mowgli , is it danger ? '' the boy called back mockingly . `` That is all Mysa thinks for : Is it danger ? But for Mowgli , who goes to and fro in the Jungle by night , watching , what do ye care ? '' `` How loud he cries ! '' said the cow . `` Thus do they cry , '' Mysa answered contemptuously , `` who , having torn up the grass , know not how to eat it . ''
`` For less than this , '' XXXXX groaned to himself , `` for less than this even last Rains I had pricked Mysa out of his wallow , and ridden him through the swamp on a rush halter . ''
