Now and again , despite all municipal regulations , the fragment of a half-burned body bobbed by on the full current . ` But for thee , ' said the Kamboh to Kim , drawing the child into his hairy breast , ' I might today have gone thither -- with this one . The priests tell us that Benares is holy -- which none doubt -- and desirable to die in . But I do not know their Gods , and they ask for money ; and when one has done one worship a shaved-head vows it is of none effect except one do another . Wash here ! Wash there ! Pour , drink , lave , and scatter flowers -- but always pay the priests . No , the Punjab for me , and the soil of the Jullundur-doab for the best soil in it . ' ' I have said many times -- in the Temple , I think -- that if need be , the River will open at our feet . We will therefore go North , ' said the lama , rising . ' I remember a pleasant place , set about with fruit-trees , where one can walk in meditation -- and the air is cooler there . It comes from the Hills and the snow of the Hills . ' ` What is the name ? ' said Kim . ` How should I know ? Didst thou not -- no , that was after the Army rose out of the earth and took thee away . I abode there in meditation in a room against the dovecot -- except when she talked eternally . ' ` Oho ! the woman from Kulu . That is by Saharunpore . '
