said Mowgli furiously . `` That is Man ! There speaks Man ! '' Bagheera muttered under his whiskers . `` Even so did men talk round the King 's cages at Oodeypore . We of the Jungle know that Man is wisest of all . If we trusted our ears we should know that of all things he is most foolish . '' Raising his voice , he added , `` The Man-cub is right in this . Men hunt in packs . To kill one , unless we know what the others will do , is bad hunting . Come , let us see what this Man means toward us . '' `` We will not come , '' Gray Brother growled . `` Hunt alone , Little Brother . WE know our own minds . The skull would have been ready to bring by now . '' Mowgli had been looking from one to the other of his friends , his chest heaving and his eyes full of tears . He strode forward to the wolves , and , dropping on one knee , said : `` Do I not know my mind ? Look at me ! '' They looked uneasily , and when their eyes wandered , he called them back again and again , till their hair stood up all over their bodies , and they trembled in every limb , while Mowgli stared and stared . `` Now , '' said he , `` of us five , which is leader ? ''
`` Thou art leader , Little XXXXX , '' said Gray Brother , and he licked Mowgli 's foot .
