I wanted to assure them, Don t fear, I am not out to trouble you. Eat your Tiffin in peace, don t mind me You, nearest to me, hugging the cash box, you are craven with fear, afraid even to breathe. Go on, count the cash, if that s your pleasure. I just want to watch, that s all If my tail trails down to the street, if I am blocking your threshold; it is because, I m told, I m eleven feet tip to tail. I can t help pt.

Won t need any for several days to come, won t stir, not until I feel hungry, unlike human beings who slaughter one another without purpose or hunger To the great delight of children, schools were being hurriedly closed. Children of all ages and size were running helter skelter screaming joyously. No school, no school. Tiger, tiger! They were shouting and; laughing and even enjoyed being scared. They seemed to welcome me.
