Low down—low down! Where the liddle green lanterns shine— Oh! maids, I’ve done with ‘ee all but one, And she can never be mine! Rewards and Fairies THE KNIFE AND THE NAKED CHALK 72 The Run of the Downs THE WEALD is good, the Downs are best— I’ll give you the run of ‘em, East to West. Beachy Head and Winddoor Hill, They were once and they are still. Firle, Mount Caburn and Mount Harry Go back as far as sums’ll carry. Ditchling Beacon and Chanctonbury Ring, They have looked on many a thing; And what those two have missed between ‘em I reckon Truleigh Hill has seen ‘em. Highden, Bignor and Duncton Down Knew Old England before the Crown. Linch Down, Treyford and Sunwood Knew Old England before the Flood. And when you end on the Hampshire side— Butser’s old as Time and Tide. The Downs are sheep, the Weald is corn, You be glad you are Sussex born!
The Knife and the Naked Chalk THE CHILDREN went to the seaside for a month, and lived in a flint village on the bare windy chalk Downs, quite thirty miles away from home. They made friends with an old shepherd, called Mr Dudeney, who had known their Father when their Father was little. He did not talk like their own people in the Weald of Sussex, and he used different names for farm things, but he understood how they felt, and let them go with him. He had a tiny cottage about half a mile from the village, where his wife made mead from thyme honey, and nursed sick lambs in front of a coal fire, while Old Jim, who was Mr Dudeney’s sheep-dog’s father, lay at the door. They brought up beef bones for Old Jim (you must never give a sheep-dog mutton bones), and if Mr Dudeney happened to be far in the Downs, Mrs Dudeney would tell the dog to take them to him, and he did. One August afternoon when the village water-cart had made the street smell specially townified, they went to look for their shepherd as usual, and, as usual, Old Jim crawled over the doorstep and took them in charge. The sun was hot, the dry grass was very slippery, and the distances were very distant. Rudyard Kipling 73 ‘It’s Just like the sea,’ said Una, when Old Jim halted in the shade of a lonely flint barn on a bare rise. ‘You see where you’re going, and - you go there, and there’s nothing between.’ Dan slipped off his shoes. ‘When we get home I shall sit in the woods all day,’ he said. ‘Whuff!’ said Old Jim, to show he was ready, and struck across a long rolling stretch of turf. Presently he asked for his beefbone. ‘Not yet,’ said Dan. ‘Where’s Mr Dudeney? Where’s Master?’ Old Jim looked as if he thought they were mad, and asked again. ‘Don’t you give it him,’ Una cried. ‘I’m not going to be left howling in a desert.’ ‘Show, boy! Show!’ said Dan, for the Downs seemed as bare as the palm of your hand. Old Jim sighed, and trotted forward. Soon they spied the blob of Mr Dudeney’s hat against the sky a long way off. ‘Right! All right!’ said Dan. Old Jim wheeled round, took his bone carefully between his blunted teeth, and returned to the shadow of the old barn, looking just like a wolf. The children went on. Two kestrels hung bivvering and squealing
