The Jungle Book. Rudyard Kipling

      The dawn was beginning to break when Mowgli went down the hillside alone, to meet those mysterious things that are called men.

      Hunting-Song of the Seeonee Pack

      As the dawn was breaking the Sambhur belled

      Once, twice and again!

      And a doe leaped up, and a doe leaped up

      From the pond in the wood where the wild deer sup.

      This I, scouting alone, beheld,

      Once, twice and again!

      As the dawn was breaking the Sambhur belled

      Once, twice and again!

      And a wolf stole back, and a wolf stole back

      To carry the word to the waiting pack,

      And we sought and we found and we bayed on his track

      Once, twice and again!

      As the dawn was breaking the Wolf Pack yelled

      Once, twice and again!

      Feet in the jungle that leave no mark!

      Eyes that can see in the dark–the dark!

      Tongue–give tongue to it! Hark! O hark!

      Once, twice and again!
