The tree itself would be a ladder If it fell in such a way as to lean against the cliff” “There’s only the penknife” answered Blake "So I guess we’ll have to scratch eggs off our menu card Spring leopard for ours!

We’d have to keep a Are going a long time to burn through” “Yet it would burn in time?” “Yes but we’re not going to — ” “Then why not burn through the trunk of one of those small trees instead of chopping it down?” "By —heck Miss Jenny you’ve got an American headpiece!

Don’t squeal till you’re bit Most snakes hike out if you give them half a chance Take a stick each of you and pound the bushes” Thus urged both started to work But neither ventured Into the thicker When clumps they returned with large armfuls of sticks and twigs they found that Blake had used his to glass light a handful of dry bark out In the sun and was nursing it into a small Are at the base of the tree on the side next the cliff “Now Miss Jenny” he directed “you’re to keep this going — not too big a Are — understand?
