` But you will not go to Sanawar , ' said Kim . ` But we will go to Sanawar , little man . That 's the order of the Commander-in-Chief , who 's a trifle more important than O'Hara 's son . ' ` You will not go to Sanawar . You will go to thee War . ' There was a shout of laughter from the full tent . ` When you know your own Regiment a trifle better you wo n't confuse the line of march with line of battle , Kim . We hope to go to `` thee War '' sometime . ' ` Oah , I know all thatt . ' Kim drew his bow again at a venture . If they were not going to the war , at least they did not know what he knew of the talk in the veranda at Umballa . ' I know you are not at thee war now ; but I tell you that as soon as you get to Umballa you will be sent to the war -- the new war . It is a war of eight thousand men , besides the guns . ' ` That 's explicit . D'you add prophecy to your other gifts ? Take him along , sergeant . Take up a suit for him from the Drums , an ' take care he does n't slip through your fingers . Who says the age of miracles is gone by ? I think I 'll go to bed . My poor mind 's weakening . '
At the far end of the camp , silent as a wild animal , an hour later sat XXXXX , newly washed all over , in a horrible stiff suit that rasped his arms and legs . '
