'' `` Not all , '' said Mowgli , laughing ; `` else there would be a new and strong Shere Khan to kill once a moon . Now , I could kill with my own hands , asking no help of buffaloes . And also I have wished the sun to shine in the middle of the Rains , and the Rains to cover the sun in the deep of summer ; and also I have never gone empty but I wished that I had killed a goat ; and also I have never killed a goat but I wished it had been buck ; nor buck but I wished it had been nilghai . But thus do we feel , all of us . '' `` Thou hast no other desire ? '' the big snake demanded . `` What more can I wish ? I have the Jungle , and the favour of the Jungle ! Is there more anywhere between sunrise and sunset ? '' `` Now , the Cobra said -- '' Kaa began . `` What cobra ? He that went away just now said nothing . He was hunting . '' `` It was another . '' `` Hast thou many dealings with the Poison People ? I give them their own path . They carry death in the fore-tooth , and that is not good -- for they are so small . But what hood is this thou hast spoken with ? ''
