We must not be heard talking English here . ' ` That is all raight . I am only Babu showing off my English to you . All we Babus talk English to show off ; ' said Hurree , flinging his shoulder-cloth jauntily . ` As I was about to say , `` Son of the Charm '' means that you may be member of the Sat Bhai -- the Seven Brothers , which is Hindi and Tantric . It is popularly supposed to be extinct Society , but I have written notes to show it is still extant . You see , it is all my invention . Verree good . Sat Bhai has many members , and perhaps before they jolly-well-cut-your-throat they may give you just a chance of life . That is useful , anyhow . And moreover , these foolish natives -- if they are not too excited -- they always stop to think before they kill a man who says he belongs to any speecific organization . You see ? You say then when you are in tight place , `` I am Son of the Charm '' , and you get -- perhaps -- ah -- your second wind . That is only in extreme instances , or to open negotiations with a stranger . Can you quite see ? Verree good . But suppose now , I , or any one of the Department , come to you dressed quite different . You would not know me at all unless I choose , I bet you . Some day I will prove it . I come as Ladakhi trader -- oh , anything -- and I say to you : `` You want to buy precious stones ? ''
You XXXXX : `` Do I look like a man who buys precious stones ? ''
