He lies among wolf-cubs, next to Mother Wolfs side, and he is not afraid. Outside the cave Shere Khan, the man-eating tiger, roars angrily, wanting to kill. ‘No!’ says Mother Wolf. ‘The man’s cub belongs to me. He will live, to run with the other wolves, to be my son. And | will call him Mowgli.” The years pass, and Mowgli the man’s cub grows up with the wolves. He learns the Law of the Jungle from his teachers, Baloo the old brown bear and Bagheera the black panther. He has many adventures, and many friends among the animals of the jungle. But he still has an enemy. Shere Khan the tiger has not forgotten. He waits for the days when he can catch the man’s cub —and kill him. a y ranaaanuanni a iunmanauldmossemedurday fimontlosuauaeflushuvisntis adhwouduuarifantuanela 9) manttauriiuauaranarussegn vanthtae 9 waidaewansiu usittualdl dv ltmsndiacifundausiagns la mawanduviaia Sidoledaghufinausontsta Bufom Gonsemune ddush rh&adeuarnmdnensmungen “Lair uainanthneina ‘qnamseiffit Svat uneeifinvald uavastuleluwYeatumanhisu 4 nae fugnmusast uavthevdefanrh uned noeinwld anndisiqviulnannien 97 Suusmnanh wed Buwjnguanhwnezonlavaun Fafundarhonata ing uaverndash fon infin anedldwuiumaneytusie 9 annanes Snvistisdinosian udertumnatio uunsdansiae usinseniny wnatensidegay Andosufeudslimu@udawannd wae SusoTunar'olovequanayudadhaanasuavelunriodeOxford Bookworms sitsdaduuaniiaimsnrdangwenanaa lulan Oxford Bookworms ugamisaaduuannaimndangy Jovian Jaudvinianawinndsaanswain Tnuviinerainimmauastiniieen mwyilddoonGassmdwawnn Fsdquudaucidwarsunsssivinviniden aeaiulan ‘Wieferudldtondinn@uluiumeinnmanasntwan frhanthenan ‘waidaucaumindingyinudannatile asusalAandmérudoarm vennuseinn itu amaan Gucaudauaaw asad unumuavavasa iy aasunsanaeviautfin unaves wiineiquiasnanyiiy Gases wiisfaga Oxford Bookworms onanedovduddal ine dangy dousiaesunugluouderduge Touuisseaummoaniiiu 6 adv soutu Aa Stage 1 (Awiuan 400 4) Stage 2 (Awriuan 700 4) Stage 3 (Awan 1,000 4) Stage 4 (Awriwan 1,400 #1) Stage 5 (Awriwan 1,800 41) Stage 6 (Awan 2,500 41) uladiu Oxford Bookworms asu 6 stage Adrwarldsuuy éafiwyindinds 2,500 47 uavlennsniinyin 38 Wola Fauswaviams thludasnslufiousesi4u waned dostuuuiinitiothuummeninan enuhlailagas usviisi@omaseumadon wwumadau wuutlniin wae @ilamsaaudwauaginiuninanef www.oup.com/elt/bookwormsOxford Bookworms aiiudimayn wianudadwrmirdanty qomiiadannndengy SE-ED Enjoy Reading éiudeng irisdanqis atiuayu Mevlneviusndmmis@anreWangwainta Souduuqequuuy mavhianalihe wansdiudfitiugnamndsnmsunnsharin Ine aninsngumansmanusascnatlavumliuunucnawindn wiaanmien uavenamnandmtranasusiasmh Hotiatiuuglanrnacfarnuiades wie Wauemagmindingy uavatyniunndwlelumnaiteaia © anweela n noun (uw) Vv verb (nae) adj adjective (quédwy) adv adverb (iensnt) pron pronoun (asWw.N) prep. preposition (aun) pt past tense (niuntay 2) pl plural (wismywar)) pp past participle (nfertas 3) pres part present participle (niuwin -ing) conj conjunction (sun) det determiner (¢namthwiaatiawne) inter) interjection (gnu) sb somebody (ui) sth something (unsés) sing-v singular verb (naentas 1 usemuianwart)© ciéiwrivanuascudadwn sapntatien Sen iivninain nioushuva inside (7) theta Gusmneeiue = —head wound (n) unafiaay prisoner (n) inknas friendly (adj) ongauaine Duties muuiun smooth (adj) L__¢@uy) yaaa 5 lost (pt. pp 03 er tose) vw, Yung ates wt qamne Past tense. past — bargain () 9397 participle, plural giaves join (¥) viviaw in trouble 1% amumaniviemin wioneula Somebody brought a light and I saw the inside of the house.

Next to him lay Mother Wolf, with their four cubs beside her. ‘It’s time to look for food,’ said Father Wolf, and he stood up to leave the cave. ‘Good luck,’ said a voice. It was the jackal, Tabaqui, who eats everything and anything, even pieces of old clothes from the villages. The wolves of India do not like him, because he runs around making trouble and telling bad stories about them. ‘Shere Khan, the tiger, is coming to look for food here,’ said Tabaqui. ‘Shere Khan is coming to look for food.’ Mowgli unaa brother (n) falas warm (adj) audu evening (n) nawiin hill (n) an southern (adj) maivi India vsvineduaie wolf (7) vanth woke od of wes wake) Fun day's rest (n) mauaunenstu next to (prep) tis Gort lay (pt v09 We) vxieu cub (n) gn (vanth) beside (prep) fs | it's time fam look for (v) xem stood up (pt 209 stand) Sut leave (v) aonein cave (r) th good luck waliilani voice (n) aus Jackal (n) vans everything (pron) nes anything (pron) achilles even (adv) sie piece (7) 24, clothes (p)) Aazt village (n) vaitins wolves (p/ vay wolf) vanth run around (v) Aaluvh make trouble riner7si qunnw, yndases stories (p! 10» story) Gos The Jungle Book 13cried (pt 0s ery) ayoifluta the Law of the Jungle ngsaxh first (adv) now, wan before (conj) ria hunt (¥) 6 kill (v) sh cow (n) usin hunting (n) nv) stupid (adj) i animal (n) Sei angry (adj) Inve noise (n) Gusias eaten (pp 129 eat) fs jungle (n) thi man (n) nysei tonight (acv) audi man-killing (7) mavens bring (y) van men (p| 20: man) anaes danger (n) dueny not far away ‘ilnaconla suddenly (adv) Fulonin heard (pt 103 hear) ‘Wiiu nearer to (prep) Ink dn man’s cub (n) gn angus in front of (prep) ay) oanmh look up (v) wenn Nos laugh (v) Hane seen (pp wi! see) ii push one's way undid between (orep) rina get near to vitkiIné take (v) fix meal (n) aw thers (pron) m4 happen (v) Ast ‘He can’t,’ cried Father Wolf. ‘By the Law of the Jungle he must tell us first, before he comes here to hunt.” ‘Shere Khan has a bad leg, so he can kill only cows. In the village near him the people are angry. That is why he is coming here — to start hunting in a new place. Listen, you can hear him now,” said Tabaqui. ‘He is a stupid animal,’ said Father Wolf, and he listened to the angry noise of a tiger who has not eaten. ‘No one will find anything to eat in the jungle now.’ ‘But Shere Khan is hunting man, not animal, tonight,’ said Tabaqui. The Law of the Jungle says that animals must not hunt man, because man-killing brings men with guns. Then everybody in the jungle is in danger. Father and Mother Wolf listened to Shere Khan in the jungle not far away. Then, suddenly, they heard a noise much nearer to them. ‘It’s a man. A man’s cub. Look!” said Father Wolf. And there in front of them stood a baby who could just walk. He looked up at Father Wolf and laughed. ‘Is that a man’s cub?’ asked Mother Wolf. ‘I have never seen one. Bring it here.’ The baby, small and with no clothes, pushed its way between the cubs to get near to Mother Wolf. ‘Look,’ she said, ‘he is taking his meal with the others.’ ‘I have heard that this has happened before,” said 14 The Jungle Book‘It’s aman.

Look at him. He is not afraid.” Suddenly, it was dark, and Shere Khan was pushing his great head in through the mouth of the cave. ‘We are pleased that you visit us, Shere Khan,’ said Father Wolf, but his eyes were angry. ‘What do you need?’ ‘I am hunting a man’s cub,’ said Shere Khan. ‘Its father and mother have run away. Give it to me.’ Father Wolf knew that Shere Khan could not get inside the cave because he was too big. ‘The man’s cub belongs to us,’ he said. ‘The Pack — the other wolves and I — will decide. If we want to kill him, we will kill him, not you.’ ‘The man’s cub belongs to me! It is I, Shere Khan, who speaks!’ And Shere Khan’s roar filled the cave with noise. ‘No!’ came the angry voice of Mother Wolf. “The man’s cub belongs to me! We will not kill him. He will live, to run with the other wolves, to be my son. Now go away, fish-killer, eater of cubs! Go!” Shere Khan went. He knew that he could not fight Mother Wolf in the cave. ‘But I will have this man-cub one day, you thieves!’ he shouted from the jungle. ‘Do you really want to keep him, Mother?’ said Father Wolf. ‘Keep him?’ said Mother Wolf. ‘Yes. He came here by night, alone and hungry, but he was not afraid. Yes, 16 The Jungle BookI will keep him. And I will call him Mowgli, the frog.’ “But what will the other wolves of the Pack say?’ By the Law of the Jungle all wolf-cubs must come to the Pack ‘Mowgli, the frog’ when they can walk. The wolves look at the cubs carefully. Then the cubs are free to run anywhere because all the adult wolves know them and will not attack them. od When the four wolf-cubs could run a little, Father Wolf took them and Mowgli and Mother Wolf to the Meeting Rock. Here, the hundred wolves of the Wolf-Pack met every month when the moon was full. The leader of the Pack was Akela, a great grey wolf. Each new wolf-cub came to stand in front of him and Akela said, ‘Look well, O Wolves. Look well!” At the end, Father Wolf pushed Mowgli into the circle of wolves. Then from the trees outside the circle they heard the voice of Shere Khan. ‘The man-cub belongs to me. Give him to me!” Akela did not move but said only, ‘Look well! Who speaks for this man-cub?

His job is to teach the Law of the Jungle to the wolf-cubs. ‘I speak for the man-cub,’ came Baloo’s deep voice. ‘Let him run with the Pack. I myself will teach him.’ ‘We need another voice to speak for him,’ said Akela. Silently, another animal jumped down into the circle. It was Bagheera the panther, black as the night, clever, strong, and dangerous. ‘O Akela, will you let me speak?’ said Bagheera softly. ‘The Law of the Jungle says it is possible to buy the life of a cub. It is bad to kill a man-cub. He cannot hurt you. Let him live with you, and I will give you a fat cow, newly killed, which lies in the jungle not far away.” 18 The Jungle BookThe voices of the wolves replied, ‘Let him live.’ They were always hungry and they wanted to get the dead cow. Soon they went away, and there were only Akela, Bagheera, Baloo, and Mowgli’s wolf family left. They could hear the angry roars of Shere Khan in the night. “It is good,’ said Akela. “Men are clever. Perhaps this man-cub will help us when he is older. Take him away,’ he said to Father Wolf, ‘and teach him well.” And so, because of Baloo’s good word and the present of a cow, Mowgli now belonged to the Seeonee Wolf-Pack. “ao The story of Mowgli’s life among the wolves fills many books, but we must jump ten or eleven years now.

He knew the meaning of every sound in the trees, of every song of the birds, of every splash in the water. He learnt to climb trees like a monkey, to swim in the rivers like a fish, and to hunt for his food as cleverly as any animal in the jungle. 2 The Monkey-People Baloo, the old brown bear, loved teaching Mowgli. He taught him how to speak to the different Jungle- People, and he taught him the important Master- Words. But Mowgli sometimes got bored with all the lessons. One day, when he was not listening, Baloo hit him, very softly, on the head, and Mowgli ran away angrily. Bagheera, the black panther, was not happy about this. ‘Remember how small he is,’ he said to Baloo. ‘How can his little head hold all your long words?’ ‘These words will keep him safe from the birds, from the Snake-People, and all the animals that hunt,” said Baloo. ‘It is true that he is only small. But no one will hurt him, if he remembers all the Master-Words. Come, Mowgli!’ he called into the trees. ‘Come and say the words again.” 20 The Jungle BookMowgli climbed down from a tree and came to sit next to them. ‘I will say the words to Bagheera, not you, fat old Baloo!” he said crossly. “Very well,’ said Baloo sadly. “Say the words for the Hunting-People.’ “We are of one blood, you and I,’ said Mowgli. ‘Good. Now for the birds.’ Mowgli said the same words but with the sound of a bird. ‘Now for the Snake-People,’ said Baloo. Mowgli then made the long ‘ssss’ sound, which was like no other noise, only the noise of a snake. ‘Good,’ said Baloo gently. “One day you will thank me for my lessons. Now you will be safe in the jungle, because no snake, no bird, no animal will hurt you. You do not need to be afraid of anyone.’ Mowsgli climbed down from a tree. climb down (v) Isias next to (prep) ‘inl fat (aaj) Sau crossly (adv) atin Tnanfian sadly (adv) ata wtnaian Hunting-People (p/ vantierineh ‘one (adj) wiiouru, dhanndienin blood (n) muiaen ‘same (adj) wilowdin sound (7) (Seo made (p! 11 make) Yn ‘sess’ “wre (usy) Noise (n) Ges, usés gently (adv) athe doulew thank for (v) OUD atraid of (adj) nia anyone (pron) ‘lesiinem The Jungle Book 21high up gvtull shout |v) azinw surprised (aci) ahemmeals Bandar-log (7) theniian Monkey-People (p!) yond ‘Saw (pi vov see) Wiha cold (adj) un grey (adj) ain kind (aq) lai gave (pt 109 give) i nice (adj) 4 brother (7) leader (n) S10 ‘one day aiviuntls never (adv) ‘ines told (pp 29 te) wen do lesson fienamiisiio man-cub (0) grange law (n) no Jungle-People (0!) wanderth way (n) Ifims noisy (ad) dius &n¥in dirty (aq) amin great (adj) fsluq) but then ulus forget (v) Ax everything (pron) ypaimnaths the rest of sth fia even (adv) using sorry (adj) aula above (prep) wilo follow (v) finer: it was time (pt 09 Is) fxm midday rest (7) mrmaunawin lay (pt 909 fle) aH went to sleep (p! 209 go) vanity ‘And I shall have my people and go with them high up in the trees,’ shouted Mowgli. ‘What did you say, Mowgli?’ asked Baloo, surprised. ‘Have you been with the Bandar-log, the Monkey- People?’ Mowgli could hear that Baloo was angry, and he saw too that Bagheera’s green eyes were cold and hard. *When Baloo hurt my head,” said Mowgli, “I went away, and the grey monkeys came down from the trees and talked to me. They were kind to me and gave me nice things to eat. Then they took me up into the trees. They said that I was their brother, and they wanted me to be their leader one day. Why have you never told me about the Monkey-People? Bad old Baloo! They play all day and don’t do lessons, and I will play with them again.’ ‘Listen, man-cub,’ said Baloo angrily. ‘I have taught you the Law for all the Jungle-People, but not for the Monkey-People. They have no law. Their ways are not our ways. They are noisy and dirty, and they think that they are a great people, but then they forget everything. The rest of the Jungle-People do not talk to them, or even think about them. Remember what I tell you.” Mowsgili listened, and was sorry. But all this time the Bandar-log were above them in the trees, listening and watching. They followed Mowgli and his friends through the jungle until it was time for the midday rest. Mowgli lay between his friends and went to sleep, 22 The Jungle BookBut all this time the Bandar-log were listening and watching. saying, ‘I will never talk to or play with the Monkey- People again.” When he woke up, he was high in a tree and there were hands holding his legs and arms — hard, strong, little hands. Down below Baloo was shouting angrily, and Bagheera was trying to climb up the tree, but he was too heavy for the thin branches. The monkeys, shouting and laughing, carried Mowgli between them and began their journey along the monkey roads, which are high in the trees. It was a wild, exciting journey. The monkeys jumped from tree-top to tree-top, crashing through the leaves and branches. At first Mowgli was afraid of falling, but then he began to think.

He flew down to look, and was surprised to hear the bird-call of the kites: ‘We are of one blood, you and I!” ‘Who are you?’ called Chil. ‘Mowgli, the man-cub!’ came the reply. ‘Watch where they take me, and tell Baloo and Bagheera.” ‘I will,’ called Chil, and he flew high above the trees and watched with his far-seeing eyes. Monkeys can travel fast when they want to, and by now Baloo and Bagheera were a long way behind. ‘We cannot follow the Bandar-log through the trees,’ said Baloo, ‘and we will never catch them. But they are afraid of Kaa, the big python. He can climb as easily as the monkeys, and he eats them. Perhaps he will help us.’ And so Baloo and Bagheera went to look for Kaa the python. Chil the kite flew down to look. 24 The Jungle BookThey found him, lying in the sun — ten metres of brown-and-yellow snake, beautiful and dangerous. ‘What news?’ called Kaa when he saw them. “We are looking for food,’ said Baloo. He knew that you must not hurry Kaa. He is too big. ‘Let me come with you,’ said Kaa hungrily. ‘I have not eaten for days.’ ‘We are following the Bandar-log,’ said Baloo. ‘Those noisy, dirty thieves have stolen our man-cub. And we love our man-cub very much, Kaa!’ ‘The Bandar-log,’ said Bagheera cleverly, ‘are very much afraid of you, Kaa. But they say bad things about you, and call you “old yellow fish”, I hear.’ ‘Tss!

Up! Look up, Baloo!’ Baloo looked up and saw Chil the kite, high in the sky. “What is it?’ called Baloo. ‘I have seen Mowgli the man-cub with the Bandar- log. He knew the Master-Word. They have taken him to the monkey-city, the Lost City.’ Baloo and Bagheera knew of the monkey-city. Men lived there once, but they left hundreds of years ago. Nobody went there now, only the Bandar-log. ‘We must leave at once,’ said Baghcera. ‘It is a long way.’ ‘I will come as fast as I can,’ said Baloo, ‘but you and Kaa can go faster. I will follow you.’ _—_— The Lost City was very old. There were many beautiful buildings, but the walls were broken and full of holes, and there were tall trees in houses that were now open to the sky. The Monkey-People called the place their city, and ran around everywhere, in and out of the empty houses, up and down the fruit trees in the old gardens. Now Mowgli was in their city, and the Monkey- People were very pleased with themselves. ‘This boy can help us,’ they said. ‘He can teach us how to make things, because men are clever with their hands.’ But monkeys make many plans, and always forget them five minutes later. When Mowsili arrived in the city, he was tired and hungry. ‘Bring me food,’ he said, and twenty or thirty 26 The Jungle Bookmonkeys ran to bring him fruit. But they started fighting and forgot to take any fruit back to Mowgli. Mowgli knew that he was in a bad place. ‘Baloo was right,’ he thought. “The Bandar-log have no Law and their ways are not our ways. I must try to get away. Baloo will surely be angry with me, but that is better than life with the Bandar-log.’ But when Mowgli went to the walls of the city, the monkeys pulled him back. ‘You are very happy here with us.

He looked up at the sky. ‘There’s a cloud coming over the moon. Perhaps I can run away when it’s dark. But I am tired.” 3 Kaa’s hunting Bagheera and Kaa were also watching that cloud. They were now outside the city walls, but they knew they had to be careful. There were only two of them, and there were hundreds of monkeys. ‘They are over there by that house, talking about the boy,’ said Bagheera. ‘When the cloud hides the moon, I will attack them.” ‘I will go to the higher ground at the west wall,’ Kaa said, ‘and come down the hill very fast. Good hunting!’ The black panther ran quickly to the crowds of monkeys and started hitting, right and left, as hard as he could. The monkeys screamed angrily, but then one of them shouted, ‘There is only one here! Kill him! Kill!’ And a crowd of monkeys jumped on Bagheera, biting and pulling. Another group pulled Mowgli up a wall and pushed him over. He fell down into a dark room which had no doors or windows, and he could not get out. ‘Stay there,’ shouted the monkeys, ‘until we have killed your friend. And then we will play with you, if the snakes leave you alive.’ 28 The Jungle BookMowgli heard hissing sounds in the darkness around him. ‘We are of one blood, you and I,’ he said, quickly giving the Snakes’ Call. ‘Sssss,’ the snakes replied. ‘We will not bite you, but stand still, Little Brother, because your feet can hurt us.” Mowgli stood very still and listened to the fight around Bagheera. For the first time ever, the big panther was fighting for his life. Then Mowgli remembered something. There was a big tank of water near one of the buildings. ‘Go to the tank, Bagheera! Get to the water!” Bagheera heard and he knew that Mowgli was safe. Suddenly he felt stronger and he pulled himself slowly to the tank, fighting against the crowds of monkeys. Then Baloo came running in from the jungle, shouting, ‘Bagheera, I am here!’ At once the monkeys jumped on him, and the bear started to hit them with his great strong arms. Mowgli heard a splash when Bagheera jumped into the tank. The monkeys were afraid of water and could not follow him there. But they stood all round the sides, ready to jump on him if he tried to get out and help Baloo. And where was Kaa all this time? It was a hard climb up to the west wall, and Kaa moved carefully over the stones. Now he came down the hill very quickly, hungry and wanting to kill. Kaa was ten metres long, heavy and strong. He went silently into the crowd of monkeys around Baloo, and he did not need to hit twice. hissing sound (n) Rusyyle 9 darkness (n) a7naiin call (n) usiiun, Gusios replied (pt 209 reply) emu bite (vy) Ain still (adv) fis brother (n) tiaom feet (p/ 199 foot) vv hurt () vivid for the first time ever durdunltin fight for one’s life dogitowttimen remember (v) il tank (7) vavfusin building (n) men heard (pt vos heer) ‘Wem safe (adj) Useniit | felt (pt 201 fees) 34 stronger (ad) Suxs er himsetf (pon) davmus slowly (adv) ative 9 fight against (v) itu crowd (n) eo at once vila splash (0) ust mea stood (pt vay stand) iw round (prep) fax side (n) érins ready (adj) wien hard (adj) #n, aun | Stone (n) fawiw silently (adv) otis dew need (v) duiution twice (adv) cosnis The Jungle Book 29tank (7) riaxfinnlr young (adj) wr3, ain told (op 02 tell) yan. ia silent (adj) qpusens thiet (n) souls who (pron) #29 strongest (adj) wioundofiga Mowgli heard a splash when Bagheera jumped into the tank. afraid of (ad) nia ran (pt v9 run) 49 Im | shout (n) \fusmeinu When they are very young, monkeys are told run (vy) Soni open (v) 4) (in) about Kaa, the silent thief who can kill the strongest frex:teod monkey.

We could not do it without you,’ said Baloo. ‘Iam happy to help. Where is the man-cub?’ said Kaa. ‘Here! In this room, but I cannot get out.’ ‘Take him away,’ called the snakes around Mowgli. ‘He dances around too much and he will stand on us.’ ‘Stand back, man-cub,’ said Kaa. ‘I will break the wall.’ With two metres of his heavy body off the ground, Kaa hit the wall very hard, five or six times. A hole opened, and Mowgli jumped quickly through it. He ran and put his arms around Baloo and Bagheera.

He has done much for you tonight.’ Mowsli turned and saw the head of the great python. “So this is the man-cub,’ said Kaa. ‘He is like the Bandar-log, but not the same. Be careful, man-cub, that I do not make a mistake when I am hunting monkeys.’ “We are of one blood, you and I,’ Mowgli answered. “You have given me my life tonight. When I kill, it will be for you if you are hungry.’ ‘Well spoken,’ said Baloo. ‘You are brave, young man,” said Kaa, ‘and you speak well. Now go with your friends. The moon is going down. You must not see what will happen here next.” Kaa went softly out in front of the lines of sitting monkeys and began to dance. His head moved from right to left, and his long body turned this way and that way, making circles that changed every second. Slowly, never hurrying, Kaa danced in front of the monkeys. Baloo and Bagheera stood and could not move. Mowgli watched, and did not understand. ‘Bandar-log,’ said the deep voice of Kaa at last. ‘Can you move?’ ‘Without a word from you, Kaa, we cannot move.’ ‘Come nearer to me,’ said Kaa. The lines of monkeys came nearer, and Baloo and Bagheera walked forward, too. 52 The Jungle Book‘Nearer,’ hissed Kaa, and they all moved forward again. Mowgli put his hands on Baloo and Bagheera to get them away, and the two animals woke up. ‘Keep your hand on me, Mowgli,’ whispered Bagheera, ‘or I will go back to Kaa, and walk into his mouth.” ‘It’s only old Kaa dancing,’ said Mowgli. ‘Let us go.’ And the three of them went away into the jungle. ‘A python’s dance is dangerous to watch,’ said Baloo, ‘even for us.

The monkeys have bitten us and pulled us and hit us. And all this, man- cub, was because you played with the Bandar-log.’ “It is true,” said Mowgli sadly. ‘I am a bad man-cub.’ ‘The Law of the Jungle says we must punish you,’ said Bagheera. Baloo was happy that Mowgli was safe and with them again, but he could not speak against the Law. ‘It is right to punish me,’ said Mowgli. ‘I did wrong.’ Bagheera hit him, very softly for a panther, but very heavily for a little boy. Mowgli did not cry. ‘Now,’ said Bagheera, ‘jump on my back, Little Brother, and we will go home.’ ‘Jump on my back, Little Brother.’ One of the good things about Jungle Law is that, after you are punished, the matter is finished. 34 The Jungle Book4 The fight at the rock Mowgli always went to the meetings of the Wolf-Pack, and there he learnt something new one day. If he looked hard at any wolf, the wolf could not meet his eyes and looked away. Mowgli thought this was funny; he did not understand that he was different from the wolves. All the Jungle-People were his friends — but not Shere Khan, of course. Mother Wolf told him that the tiger wanted to kill him, ‘One day you must kill Shere Khan. If you don’t kill him, he will kill you.’ But Mowgli forgot. He was only a boy, not a wolf. Shere Khan still came often to that part of the jungle. Akela was older now and not so strong, and Shere Khan made friends with some of the younger wolves. Akela could not stop them, and Shere Khan began to make trouble for Mowgli. ‘I hear you can’t look into the man-cub’s eyes,’ he said, laughing, to the young wolves. And the young wolves began to get angry. Bagheera, who had eyes and ears everywhere, knew something of this and told Mowgli. Mowgli laughed, but Bagheera went on, ‘Open your eyes, Little Brother. Remember that Akela is old and he will not always be the leader of the Pack. Shere Khan has taught the younger wolves that a man-cub has no place with them.

Why will they want to send me away?’ ‘Look at me,” said Bagheera, and Mowgli looked at him hard between the eyes. The big black cat turned his head away quickly. ‘That is why,’ he said. ‘Not even / can look in your eyes. That is why they want to kill you. You are clever. You are a man.” ‘I did not know these things,’ said Mowgli quietly. ‘Now listen. The day will soon come when Akela cannot kill his deer in the hunt. Then at the next meeting of the Pack the younger wolves will be against Akela and against you. When that time comes, go to the men’s houses in the village and take some of their Red Flower. That will be a stronger friend to you than I or Baloo.’ The Red Flower was fire. All animals are afraid of it and do not call it by its name. ‘I will get some,’ said Mowgli. ‘I will go and get it now, and keep it ready,” and he ran through the jungle to the village. On his way he heard the sounds of the Wolf-Pack hunting a big deer. ‘Show us that you are strong, Akela,” came the voices of the young wolves. ‘Kill it!” Mowgli stopped and listened, and he could hear that Akela did not kill the deer. ‘So the time has come already,” he thought, and hurried to the village. He watched and waited, and soon he saw a child who was carrying a fire-pot. Mowgli jumped up, took the pot from him, and quickly ran away, back to the jungle. All that day he kept his fire alive with leaves and pieces of wood. 56 The Jungle BookMowgli jumped up and took the fire-pot from him. In the evening Tabaqui came and told him that the wolves wanted him at the meeting. Mowgli laughed, and went. When he arrived, he saw that Akela was not in his special place, on top of the rock, but beside it. That meant that another wolf could try to take Akela’s place. Shere Khan was there, too, with all the younger wolves around him. Mowgli sat down, with the fire-pot between his legs. Bagheera lay beside him. Shere Khan began to speak and Mowgli jumped up. ‘Free People, is Shere Khan your leader? Does a tiger belong in the Wolf-Pack?’ ‘There is no wolf on the rock,’ began Shere Khan, but the other wolves said, ‘Let Akela speak.’ Akela looked up, old and tired. ‘Free People, I have been your leader for many years.

Then Shere Khan spoke. ‘Bah! This old wolf is not important. He will die soon. It is the man-cub who has lived too long. Give him to me.’ ‘A man! A man!’ cried most of the younger wolves angrily. ‘A man does not belong in the Wolf-Pack.’ ‘Mowgli is our brother,’ said Akela. ‘He has eaten our food. He has slept with us. He has done nothing wrong. Let him go to his own place.’ ‘He is a man,’ cried Shere Khan and most of the wolves. ‘This time I did not kill my deer,’ said Akela. 38 The Jungle BookMowgli stood up, the fire-pot in his hands. He was very angry, and very sad. “You have said many times that I am a man. I was your brother, but I will not call you my brothers again. T will decide on my life or my death, not you. I am a man, and to show you, I have brought the Red Flower with me.” He dropped the fire-pot on the ground and some of the fire fell out. The wolves were very afraid and moved back. Mowgli held a long piece of wood in the fire and the end began to burn brightly. “You are the leader now,” said Bagheera softly. ‘Help Akela. He was always your friend.’ ‘Good,’ said Mowgli. He looked at the frightened wolves. ‘I go from you to my people — the world of men. But first . . .” and Mowgli went to Shere Khan. ‘This killer of cows wanted to kill me. This is what men do to killers of cows,’ and he hit Shere Khan on the head with the burning stick. The tiger was very frightened. ‘Go now,” said Mowgli to Shere Khan. ‘The next time I come to this rock, it will be with your dead body. I tell you this also, my brothers, you will not kill Akela — because J do not want that. Akela is free to live.’ And Mowgli jumped at the young wolves with his burning stick and they all ran away. In the end there were only Akela, Bagheera, and a few older wolves left. Then something began to hurt Mowgli inside him and, for the first time in his life, tears ran down his face. stood up (pt 109 stand) dutta fire-pot (n) nxms ‘w time (0) iis decide (v) fituls life (n) Ha death (n) emuene! brought (pp 103 bring) van drop (v) fas ground (7) fell out (pt vv fall) newdimaanwn held (pt 99 noig) fia piece (0) viow wood (0) ‘ii end (n) uauqn began (pt 203 begin) Gu burn.(v) qniflulw brightly (acy) laéiaos leader (n) sis softly (adv) an) frightened (adj) néa worid (7) lan first (acv) Killer (n) ash, Sinai burning (adj) anhalt stick (n) Fall, venti dead body (7) free (adj) Save, i in the end gavne a few snquiiniiow inside (prep) ‘nal tear (n) tin ran down (pt ves run) toe The Jungle Book 39dying (pres part so die) Indones little (adj) #avian men (p! 203 man) sng, a tear (n) sh close (v) Ia ‘say goodbye vane) cave (r) th cried (ot 209 ery) Soolti coat (n) unsere 9 forget (v) Ax never (adv) ‘sift wolf-brother (n) Flamm foot (n) Bs, du (om) Mowgli hit Shere Khan on the head with his burning stick. ‘What is it?

But first I must say goodbye to my mother.’ And he went to the cave and cried on Mother Wolf's coat. “You will not forget me?’ Mowgli said to his wolf- family. ‘Never,’ said his wolf-brothers. ‘Come to the foot of the hill when you are a man, and we will talk with you.’ 40 The Jungle Book‘Come soon, little frog,’ said Father Wolf, ‘because your Mother and I are getting old.” ‘I will surely come,’ said Mowgli, ‘and I will bring the coat of Shere Khan and put it on the Meeting Rock.’ And in the morning Mowgli went down the hill alone to meet those strange things that are called men. _ 2 Tiger-Tiger Mowgli knew that he had enemies now and he went far away. He ran until he came to a village in a place with many rocks and narrow valleys. Everywhere Mowgli could see cows and buffaloes. Some little boys were looking after the cows, but when they saw Mowgli, they shouted and ran away. Mowgli walked on until he came to the village. He sat down by the gate. When a man came out of the village, Mowgli opened his mouth to show that he wanted food. The man ran back into the village and came back with a hundred other people. They all looked at Mowgli and saw the bite-marks on his arms and legs. ‘Look,’ said a man, ‘those are the bite-marks of wolves. He is a wolf-child who has run away from the jungle.’ ‘He is a good-looking boy,’ said one of the women. ‘Messua, he looks like your little boy that was taken by the tiger.’ get old urifa surely (adv) atin wiwou coat (n) Funiisdert Fito went down (p! ve 90) a alone (adv) avis ‘strange (acj) ‘biguinw, wlan knew (p! v0: know) j enemies (pi 201 enemy) #7 far away ‘naaen'ls! until (conj) sanisvis village (n) waitin place (r) anny with (prep) urenaudioe rock (n) 4 narrow (aq) wen valley (7) yur everywhere (adv) gremaypuss buffalo (n) ane look after (v) hy des fan away (pt s@: run) Amn walk on (v) if wot sat (pt 0s alt) sis by (prep) ths gate (n) usagi ‘open (v) & (hn) bite-mark (0) z0ur\9 wolf-child (n) infimamnhiaies good-looking (adj) mime like (prep) 9ae The Jungle Book 41thin (adj) nex look (v) Shwe like (prep) wnfiow villager (n) svat jungle (n) thi given back (pp vs give) iiAusn fone (pron) mrawita calll (v) Stan milk (0) 11 bread (n) muito like (v) vou felt (pt vos fee!)

This was Mowsgli’s first time in a house, and he did not like it. It felt like a prison. ‘But I am a man now,’ he thought, ‘and I must do what men do. I must also learn to speak like men.’ He knew all the many languages of the jungle, and so it was easy for him to learn the sounds of men. That first evening he learnt many words from Messua. 42 The Jungle BookBut that night he did not want to sleep inside the house. So he climbed out of the window, and went to sleep in a field near the village. Before he went to sleep, a soft grey nose touched his face. It was Grey Brother, the eldest of Mother Wolf’s cubs. ‘Wake, Little Brother,’ he said. ‘I bring news. Shere Khan has gone away. You burnt his coat with the Red Flower. But he says that, when he comes back, he will kill you.” ‘I remember also what I said about Shere Khan,” said Mowgli. ‘But it is good to have news. Will you always bring me news, Grey Brother?’ “Yes, Little Brother. But you will not forget that you are a wolf? You will not forget us when you are with men?’ ‘Never,’ replied Mowgli. ‘I will always remember that I love you all.’ a For three months Mowgli learnt how to be like a man. He had to wear clothes, learn how to use money, and how to work in the fields. In the evenings he sat with the villagers under a great tree, while the men told stories about the jungle and the animals. Once, when Buldeo, the village hunter, told a story about a tiger, Mowgli had to hide his face because he was laughing. At the end he said, ‘Buldeo’s stories are stupid. He knows nothing about the jungle.” The villagers did not like this, and after that they sent Mowgli out every day with the other boys, to look after sleep (v) vent inside (prep) thst climb (v) th went (pt 109 go) ‘iu field (n) yisveifr before (con) riow soft (ad) ¥s grey (aqj) aim nose (n) 949 touch (v) daria the eldest (7) grela wake (v) 7% bring (v) van news (r) 177 gone away (pp = go) vinta burnt (pt 292 burn) un coat (n) wivinww remember (v) # replied (pt 25 reply) way learnt (pt v0. learn) Gem had to (pt vos have) dina wear (v) sald clothes (p!) arn use (v) Vi money (n) Gu told (pt 208 tell) 1s) stories (p/ x09 story) dorm once (adv) efisnts hunter (n) woewrm hide one's face dona laugh (v) Yarny stupid (adj) 4s nothing (pron) ‘aiflav/sinaehs after that vsjsviniia sent (pt x098end) sto look after (v) qus The Jungle Book 43herd (n) ssieri cow (n) wit buffalo (n) enw while (conj) waist ate (pt v0 eat) fiw enjoy (v) Saray usually (adv) Tneninfi alone (adv) iieneiniis hide (v) sou for a while ainvinwts river (0) us dhak-tree (0) guna golden (ad) sinos flower (n) oan'si watch for (v) hae day after day Saudrhash nobody (pron) ‘biffles at last luvign wait for (v) zanaH hope (v) wis forgotten (op nos forget) Hx In the evenings Mowgli sat with the villagers under a great tree. the herds of cows and buffaloes while they ate. Mowgli enjoyed this work, and usually went on alone, with a big group of cows and buffaloes. One day he saw Grey Brother under a tree near the jungle. ‘Shere Khan has come back, but he is hiding for a while. Then he is coming to kill you,’ said Grey Brother. “Very good,” said Mowgli. “Tell me when he comes. Meet me at the river, by the big dhak-tree with golden flowers. I will watch for you there every day.” Day after day Mowgli went out with the herds, but there was nobody at the dhak-tree. Then at last the day came when Grey Brother was waiting for him. ‘Shere Khan has waited for a month, and is hoping that you have now forgotten about him,’ said the wolf. 44 The Jungle Bock‘He’s going to wait for you at the village gate this evening. But now he is hiding in the big dry ravine of the Waingunga. I met Tabaqui this morning— here Grey Brother showed his teeth a little ‘—and before I broke his back, he told me all about Shere Khan’s plan.’ ‘Has Shere Khan eaten today, or does he hunt empty?’ The answer was life or death for Mowgli. ‘He killed and ate this morning. And he has drunk, too.” ‘How stupid he is!’ said Mowgli. ‘Does he think that I shall wait until he has slept?’ He stood and thought for a while. ‘The ravine of Waingunga! I can take the buffaloes round to the top end and chase Shere Khan down the ravine. After a meal, he cannot fight or climb easily. But I need a big group of cows at the bottom end of the ravine, to stop him escaping. Then we will catch him between the buffaloes and the cows. Can you help me, Grey Brother?’ ‘Not I alone,’ said Grey Brother, ‘but I have someone who will help me.’ And the big grey head of Akela came out from the trees. ‘Akela! Akela!’ said Mowgli. ‘I knew you would not forget me.’ The two wolves ran here and there among the herd, and soon the cows and buffaloes were in two groups. Already, they were getting excited and dangerous. The other herd-boys, who were watching a long way away, ran back to the village with the news. ‘Keep the cows together, Grey Brother,’ called Mowgli. ‘Drive them into the bottom end of the ravine gate (n) thug, mash hide (vy) qi dry (agi) whois ravine (n) yuimén the Waingunga yuarmisbadwadio met (pt 205 meet) 30 show one’s teeth usnginla broke (pt %@9 break) veh eaten (pp 10. eat) fiw empty (adj) Lultfiaxls life or death ernuduernmnes drunk (pp sas drink) oa stupid (aq) Wis slept (pp 109 sleep) wou take round (v) wigudaslh) top end qarnaimuu chase (v) laviaw bottom end gomatinasis escaping (n) manauni cateh (v) alone (aaj) sis would (pt 209 will): ran here and there (pivosrun) Ashisn among (prep) Ynwnens herd (n) ssdori already (adv) isiauda excited (ad) éu, Ads dangerous (adj) Suerny herd-boy (n) \in urn Jong (adj) ine keep (v) view together (adv) Livonia. drive (y ls The Jungle Book 45drove (pt 109 drive) ‘avion circle (n) 299m uphill (adv) Sun took time (p! x03 take) Vine Jong (adi) wi ready (ad) wiox shout down (v) aelmuassn ravine (n) yuanan it is time fom meeting (0) manu rode (pt t09 ride) @ the biggest (n) daingiiqn chase (v) teiviow herd (n) sot behind (prep) thowis, douvits faster (adv) int shook (pt 209 shake) aeafion heavy (adj) win, fudw feet (p! x09 foot) fh woke up (pt 209 wake) dita stand against (v) im look for (v) 3370 escape (v) vi narrow (adj) wens rocky (ad) fidhtn had to (pt 203 have) fas go on (v) tui bottom (n) fis (yn) turn (v) Sandu late (adj) # fell (pt v0» tau) Sx ‘Akela!

It took a long time because they did not want Shere Khan to hear them. At last Mowgli was ready. He stopped and shouted down the ravine. ‘Shere Khan! It is I, Mowgli. It is time for our meeting!” Mowgli rode on the back of Rama, the biggest of the buffaloes, and Akela chased the herd from behind. | The buffaloes began to run down the ravine, faster and faster, and the ground shook under their heavy feet. Shere Khan heard the noise and woke up. He knew what it was, and he began to run down the ravine. No tiger can hope to stand against a herd of buffaloes when they are moving fast. He looked for a way to escape, but the ravine was narrow, with high rocky walls. He had to go on, heavy with his dinner and his drink. Then he saw the cows at the bottom of the ravine, and turned. But it was too late. He fell under the feet of the buffaloes, 46 The Jungle BookThe buffaloes ran down the ravine, faster and faster. and they ran over him like a river running down a ran over (pt 03 run) mountain. 4s, ondiens m : , like (prep) TAH The buffaloes did not stop until they crashed into | pun down the herd of cows.

After an hour Mowgli was still working when suddenly he felt a hand on his back. It was Buldeo, the village hunter. ‘Go and look after your buffaloes,’ he cried angrily. ‘I will take this tiger’s coat. I can sell it for a hundred rupees, and you can have one rupee for yourself.’ ‘No,’ said Mowgli. ‘I need this coat.’ ‘Listen, boy!’ shouted Buldeo. ‘J am the village hunter, and I will take the coat, and keep all the money.’ Then Mowgli spoke to Akela in the wolf-language, and suddenly Buldeo was lying on his back on the ground with a big grey wolf standing over him. ‘Buldeo,’ said Mowgli, ‘for a long time this tiger has wanted to kill me. But I have killed him.” Buldeo was very afraid. Who was this boy, who could talk to wolves and kill tigers? ‘Great King,” he said to Mowgli, ‘I am an old man. I thought you were just a herd-boy. Let me go now, and I will go away.’ ‘Go, and peace go with you,’ replied Mowgli, and he went on with his work. It was nearly dark when at last he and the wolves pulled the great coat away from the tiger’s body. ‘Now we must hide this and take the cows and the buffaloes back to the village,’ said Mowgli. 48 The Jungle BookBut when Mowgli came near the village, there was a crowd of people waiting for him at the gate. ‘Go away, wolf-child!’ they shouted. ‘Go away, or we will kill you!’ Mowgli did not understand. Shere Khan — the tiger who killed cows and stole children — was dead, but people were angry with him. He turned away and looked up at the stars in the sky. ‘No more sleeping in houses for me, Akela. Let us get Shere Khan's coat and go away.” The moon climbed high in the sky, and the frightened villagers watched while Mowgli began to run across the fields, with the two grey wolves running at his side. —_Oo The moon was going down when Mowgli and the two wolves came to Mother Wolf’s cave. ‘The men do not want me, Mother,’ called Mowgli. ‘I have come home, and I have brought the coat of Shere Khan.’ Mother Wolf came out of the cave, very happy to see Mowgli again, and to know that Shere Khan was dead. From the jungle came the deep voice of Bagheera. ‘Little Brother, we are pleased to see you.’ Then Mowgli took the coat of Shere Khan and put it on the great rock at the wolves’ meeting place.

And Mowgli went away into the jungle and lived and hunted with his brothers, the wolves. 50 The Jungle Book° © a mewnainsas above (prep) infla adutt (adj) Tada afew dmoudniian afraid (adj) naa afraid of (adj) naa after (conj) vaavin after that wSsvini again (adv) Snaswtts against (prep) wisi ago (adv) wnanuda alive (adj) qnlwu, santa all this Font alone (adj) avis alone (adv) drs, éaiien along (prep) saan already (adv) ud, aSaudr also (adv) iuiiu, aemiiouiin always (adv) Wino, agen among (prep) Yasinaw angrily (adv) atinsinsninfen, atislnsn Vlas angry (adj) Ins animal (n) avi another (det) Snwiis answer (v) #au any more Anuui2 anyone (pron) ‘lesdinew anything (pron) a: laiile anywhere (adv) #luuiilé arrive (v) sntio as (prep) fu as...as wo 9 fu ate (pt vo eat) Au at last nowt, lufign at once visa, rhelenin at one’s side Wot attack (v) land, vive at the end unawyne bad (adj) Goanéu, yal badly (adv) avid Baht (inter) #31!
