The crashing of the brush and the yelping of the hound each time the briers tore his tender ears were borne to the two rabbits where they crouched in hiding.

Rag knew what it meant and it sent a shiver throtigh him, but he soon forgot that when all was over and rejoiced to be once more the master of the dear old Swamp. 133.
