Here they found a large chair, that seated with _rimpis_ in which the Baas Red-Beard sits, and lashed two poles to the chair.

Beneath the chair they tied the garments and other things of the Lady Sad-Eyes which they made Janee gather as Sad-Eyes directed her.

This done, very gently they sat Sad-Eyes herself in the chair, bowing while they made her fast.

After this eight of them set the poles upon their shoulders, and they all went away at a trot, heading for the bush-veld, driving with them a herd of goats which they had stolen from the farm, and making Janee run by the chair.

I saw everything, Baas, for they passed just beneath my tree.
Then I came to seek you, following the outward spoor of the waggons which I could not have done well at night.
