THE SONG OF THE JUNGLE. _The tribes of the jungle are we--_ The men came among us one day, Enticed foolish monkeys away. But the monkeys crept out of the tree-tops-The birds and the beasts of the forest The birds and the beasts of the forest And I studied the ways of my master Yet often I longed for the jungle-And, dressed in a gaudy new suit, And the last tangled trace of the jungle Till at night I was changed from a monkey On the ladies he took me to call-And I took her out boating next morning, Then, ho, for the skill of the jungle! Yet often I dreamed of the jungle-With Tusky, our elephant king. With Tusky, our elephant king. The ways and the customs of men. For man did not spring from the monkey, But monkey _descended from man!_ ./cache/33629.txt ./txt/33629.txt
