The camel is eating a twig of acacia, and hehas just finished saying humph once too often (the Djinn told him hewould), and so the Humph is coming. The long towelly-thing growingout of the thing like an onion is the Magic, and you can see the Humphon its shoulder. The Humph fits on the flat part of the Camels Camel is too busy looking at his own beautiful self in the pool ofwater to know what is going to happen to him. Underneath the truly picture is a picture of the are two smoky volcanoes in it, some other mountains and somestones and a lake and a black island and a twisty river and a lot of otherthings, as well as a Noahs Ark.

How can I, said the Camel, with thishumph on my back ? Thats made a-purpose, said the Djinn, allbecause you missed those three days. You willbe able to work now for three days withouteating, because you can live on your humph ;and dont you ever say I never did anything foryou. Come out of the Desert and go to theThree, and behave. Humph yourself! And the Camel humphed himself, humphand all, and went away to join the Three.
