He would go back to the Road again , as I said . Not knowing yet thy trade -- ' ' I am not at all sure of that , ' the Colonel muttered . ` He turns to me to make a peace between you . Is he not wise ? He says he will return . He is but perfecting his knowledge . Think , Sahib ! He has been three months at the school . And he is not mouthed to that bit . For my part , I rejoice . The pony learns the game . ' ` Ay , but another time he must not go alone . ' ` Why ? He went alone before he came under the Colonel Sahib 's protection . When he comes to the Great Game he must go alone -- alone , and at peril of his head . Then , if he spits , or sneezes , or sits down other than as the people do whom he watches , he may be slain . Why hinder him now ? Remember how the Persians say : The jackal that lives in the wilds of Mazanderan can only be caught by the hounds of Mazanderan . ' ` True . It is true , Mahbub Ali .
And if he XXXXX to no harm , I do not desire anything better .
Remember Think comes go hinder lives mouthed perfecting rejoice turns
