King Solomon’s Mines

CHAPTER I
4/21

Stop, though! there is Gagaoola, if she was a woman, and not a fiend.

But she was a hundred at least, and therefore not marriageable, so I don't count her.
At any rate, I can safely say that there is not a _petticoat_ in the whole history.
Well, I had better come to the yoke.

It is a stiff place, and I feel as though I were bogged up to the axle.

But, "_sutjes, sutjes_," as the Boers say--I am sure I don't know how they spell it--softly does it.

A strong team will come through at last, that is, if they are not too poor.
