The Rulers of the Lakes

CHAPTER XI
28/42

Be sure that you wait on me well.

It is the first rest that I have had in a long time, and it is my purpose to enjoy it.

If I should be fretful, humor me; if I should be hungry, feed me; if I should be sleepy, let me sleep, and see that I am not disturbed while I do sleep; if my bed is hard, make me a better, and through it all, O Dagaeoga, be thou the finest medicine man that ever breathed in these woods." "Come, now, Tayoga, you lay too great a burden upon me.

I'm not all the excellencies melted into one, and I've never pretended to be.

But I can see that you're getting well, because the spirit of rulership is upon you as strong as ever, and, since you're so much improved, I may take it into my mind to obey your commands, though only when I feel like it." The two lads looked at each other and laughed, and there was immense relief in Robert's laugh.
