THE LAW OF THE JUNGLE

Just to give you an idea of the immense variety of the Jungle Law, I have translated into verse (Baloo always recited them in a sort of sing-song) a few of the laws that apply to the wolves. There are, of course, hundreds and hundreds more, but these will do for specimens of the simpler rulings.

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as

the sky;

And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf

that shall break it must die.

As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk the Law runneth

forward and back—

For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength

of the Wolf is the Pack.
