Their cousin gathered up the threads from Monkey's hair and Jimbo's eyes, and held them in one hand like reins. He sang to them a moment while they recovered their breath and forces:—

The stars in their courses

Are runaway horses

That gallop with Thoughts from the Earth;

They collect them, and race

Back through wireless space,

Bringing word of the tiniest birth;

Past old Saturn and Mars,

And the hosts of big stars,

Who strain at their leashes for joy.

Bind sweetly together

So, beware what you think;

It is written in ink

That is golden, and read by His Stars!

'Yes,' echoed Jimbo. 'Look at the sky. The "rapide" from Paris comes past at six o'clock.'
