I have n't put in all the beavers , because I ca n't draw beavers , but I 've drawn their heads , and that 's all you 'll see of them when you cross the swamp . Mind you do n't fall in ! Then our Cave is just beyond the beaver-swamp . It is n't as high as the hills really , but I ca n't draw things very small . That 's my Mummy outside . She is beautiful . She is the most beautifullest Mummy there ever was , but she wo n't be ` fended when she sees I 've drawn her so plain . She 'll be pleased of me because I can draw . Now , in case you forget , I 've drawn the spear that Daddy wants outside our Cave . It 's inside really , but you show the picture to my Mummy and she 'll give it you . I 've made her holding up her hands , because I know she 'll be so pleased to see you . Is n't it a beautiful picture ? And do you quite understand , or shall I ` splain again ? ' The Stranger-man -LRB- and he was a Tewara -RRB- looked at the picture and nodded very hard . He said to himself , ' If I do not fetch this great Chief 's tribe to help him , he will be slain by his enemies who are coming up on all sides with spears . Now I see why the great Chief pretended not to notice me ! He feared that his enemies were hiding in the bushes and would see him . Therefore he turned to me his back , and let the wise and wonderful child draw the terrible picture showing me his difficulties . I will away and get help for him from his tribe . ' He did not even ask Taffy the road , but raced off into the bushes like the wind , with the birch-bark in his hand , and Taffy sat down most pleased .
Now this is the picture that XXXXX had drawn for him !
