From my bones outward I do desire it , but it is forbidden . I have seen the Cause of Things . ' ` Why ? When the Hills give thee back thy strength day by day ? Remember we were weak and fainting down below there in the Doon . ' ' I became strong to do evil and to forget . A brawler and a swashbuckler upon the hillsides was I. ' Kim bit back a smile . ` Just and perfect is the Wheel , swerving not a hair . When I was a man -- a long time ago -- I did pilgrimage to Guru Ch ` wan among the poplars ' -LRB- he pointed Bhotanwards -RRB- , ` where they keep the Sacred Horse . ' ` Quiet , be quiet ! ' said Shamlegh , all arow . ` He speaks of Jam-lin-nin-k ` or , the Horse That Can Go Round The World In a Day . ' ' I speak to my chela only , ' said the lama , in gentle reproof , and they scattered like frost on south eaves of a morning . ' I did not seek truth in those days , but the talk of doctrine . All illusion ! I drank the beer and ate the bread of Guru Ch ` wan . Next day one said : `` We go out to fight Sangor Gutok down the valley to discover '' -LRB- mark again how Lust is tied to Anger ! -RRB- `` which Abbot shall bear rule in the valley and take the profit of the prayers they print at Sangor Gutok . '' I went , and we fought a day . ' ` But how , Holy One ? '
` With our long pencases as I could have shown ... I say , we fought under the XXXXX , both Abbots and all the monks , and one laid open my forehead to the bone .
