Quotation from: The Little Lady of the Big House

Written by: Jack London


Dick obediently ceased his chant of Mountain Lad, but shook his head
like a stubborn colt.


"I have a new song," he said solemnly. "It is about you and me, Paula.
I got it from the Nishinam."


"The Nishinam are the extinct aborigines of this part of California,"
Paula shot in a swift aside of explanation to Graham.


Dick danced half a dozen steps, stiff-legged, as Indians dance,
slapped his thighs with his palms, and began a new chant, still
retaining his hold on his wife.
