You shall have all sorts of credits for your game . When do you come along ? We are very proud of you though you gave us great frights . And especially Mahbub . ' ` Ay , Mahbub . And where is he ? ' ` Selling horses in this vi-cinity , of course . ' ` Here ! Why ? Speak slowly . There is a thickness in my head still . ' The Babu looked shyly down his nose . ` Well , you see , I am fearful man , and I do not like responsibility . You were sick , you see , and I did not know where deuce-an ' - all the papers were , and if so , how many . So when I had come down here I slipped in private wire to Mahbub -- he was at Meerut for races -- and I tell him how case stands . He comes up with his men and he consorts with the lama , and then he calls me a fool , and is very rude -- ' ` But wherefore -- wherefore ? ' ` That is what I ask . I only suggest that if anyone steals the papers I should like some good strong , brave men to rob them back again . You see , they are vitally important , and Mahbub Ali he did not know where you were . ' ` Mahbub Ali to rob the Sahiba 's house ?
Thou art mad , XXXXX , ' said Kim with indignation . '
