`` Thou hast been with the Monkey People -- the gray apes -- the people without a law -- the eaters of everything . That is great shame . '' `` When Baloo hurt my head , '' said Mowgli -LRB- he was still on his back -RRB- , `` I went away , and the gray apes came down from the trees and had pity on me . No one else cared . '' He snuffled a little . `` The pity of the Monkey People ! '' Baloo snorted . `` The stillness of the mountain stream ! The cool of the summer sun ! And then , man-cub ? '' `` And then , and then , they gave me nuts and pleasant things to eat , and they -- they carried me in their arms up to the top of the trees and said I was their blood brother except that I had no tail , and should be their leader some day . '' `` They have no leader , '' said Bagheera . `` They lie . They have always lied . '' `` They were very kind and bade me come again . Why have I never been taken among the Monkey People ? They stand on their feet as I do . They do not hit me with their hard paws . They play all day . Let me get up !
