Explore "Hunting-Song of the Seeonee Pack" by Rudyard Kipling on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
As the dawn was breaking the Sambhur belled -- / Once, twice and again! / And a doe leaped up, and a doe leaped up / From the pond in the wood where the wild deer sup. / This I, scouting alone, beheld, / Once, twice and again!
As the dawn was breaking the Sambhur belled -- / Once, twice and again! / And a wolf stole back, and a wolf stole back / To carry the word to the waiting pack, / And we sought and we found and we bayed on his track / Once, twice and again!
As the dawn was breaking the Wolf Pack yelled / Once, twice and again! / Feet in the jungle that leave no mark! / Eyes that can see in the dark -- the dark! / Tongue -- give tongue to it! Hark! O hark! / Once, twice and again!
