Two nights later, as the White Cobra sat mourning in the darkness of the vault, ashamed, and robbed, and alone, the turquoise ankus whirled through the hole in the wall, and clashed on the floor of golden coins.

‘Father of Cobras,’ said Mowgli (he was careful to keep the other side of the wall), ‘get thee a young and ripe one of thine own people to help thee guard the King’s Treasure, so that no man may come away alive any more.’

‘Ah-ha! It returns, then. I said the thing was Death. How comes it that thou art still alive?’ the old Cobra mumbled, twining lovingly round the ankus-haft.

‘By the Bull that bought me, I do not know! That thing has killed six times in a night. Let him go out no more.’
