     summary: The behaviour of Belgian officers and their native soldiers was as correct and gentlemanly as that of officers should be, and, to their relief and surprise, those white women found the tables turned, and that their enemy could be as chivalrous to them as German soldiers--their own brothers--had been vile to the wretched people of Belgium. And if, at first, Hildegarde, of the sour and disapproving face, did little irregular things for wounded German soldiers, faked temperature charts, prepared little forbidden meals at night, and in other ways pretended to a degree of illness in her German soldiers that my clinical eye refused to see, I could not altogether blame her.

     summary: import and export tax, and in many other ways spend money which goes toward paying the expenses of government. In the early hours of morning, we stopped at Simba, the Place of Lions, where the station-master has many lion scares even now.

     summary: I explained our difficulties as those of great men in misfortune; and, after listening to our tale, he said he would tell Suwarora of the way we had been plundered, and impress upon him to deal lightly with us. It was not the custom of my country for great men to consort with servants, and until I saw him, and made friends, I should not be happy.

     summary: Said Mr. Soongoora, 'I'll bring enough meat to-morrow for both of us to have a great feast, but you'll have to do the killing.' 'All right, good friend,' exclaimed Simba, joyfully; 'you're very kind.' Well, said the lion, what is it this time? Said the rabbit: I'm thinking about that cave.

     summary: This Englishman, Patterson, is most brave, and is indeed the very essence of valour; Lions do not fear lions, yet one glance from Patterson Sahib cowed the bravest of them. Shortly afterwards one or two coolies mysteriously disappeared, and I was told that they had been carried off by night from their tents and devoured by lions.

     summary: And in the said Benamatapa, which is a very large town, the king is used to make his longest residence; and it is thence that the merchants bring to Sofala the gold which they sell to the Moors without weighing it, for coloured stuffs and beads of Cambay, which are much used and valued amongst them; and the people of this city of Benamatapa say that this gold comes from still further off towards the Cape of Good Hope, from another kingdom subject to this king of Benamatapa, who is a great lord, and holds many other kings as his subjects, and many other lands, which extend far inland, both towards the Cape of Good Hope and towards Mozambich. The Moors call him the great King of the Habeshys: he is Christian, and lord of many extensive countries and numerous people, with whom he makes subject many great kings.
