Tiger ! '' What of the hunting , hunter bold ? Brother , the watch was long and cold . What of the quarry ye went to kill ? Brother , he crops in the jungle still . Where is the power that made your pride ? Brother , it ebbs from my flank and side . Where is the haste that ye hurry by ? Brother , I go to my lair -- to die . Now we must go back to the first tale . When Mowgli left the wolf 's cave after the fight with the Pack at the Council Rock , he went down to the plowed lands where the villagers lived , but he would not stop there because it was too near to the jungle , and he knew that he had made at least one bad enemy at the Council . So he hurried on , keeping to the rough road that ran down the valley , and followed it at a steady jog-trot for nearly twenty miles , till he came to a country that he did not know . The valley opened out into a great plain dotted over with rocks and cut up by ravines . At one end stood a little village , and at the other the thick jungle came down in a sweep to the grazing-grounds , and stopped there as though it had been cut off with a hoe . All over the plain , cattle and buffaloes were grazing , and when the little boys in charge of the herds saw Mowgli they shouted and ran away , and the yellow pariah dogs that hang about every Indian village barked . Mowgli walked on , for he was feeling hungry , and when he came to the village gate he saw the big thorn-bush that was drawn up before the gate at twilight , pushed to one side . `` Umph ! '' he said , for he had come across more than one such barricade in his night rambles after things to eat . `` So men are afraid of the People of the Jungle here also . '' He sat down by the gate , and when a man came out he stood up , opened his mouth , and pointed down it to show that he wanted food .
The man stared , and ran back up the one street of the village shouting XXXXX the priest , who was a big , fat man dressed in white , with a red and yellow mark on his forehead .
