Just So Stories Rudyard Kipling

“IN the days when everybody started fair, Best Beloved, the Leopard lived in a place called the High Veldt. „Member it wasn’t the Low Veldt, or the Bush Veldt, or the Sour Veldt, but the „sclusively bare, hot, shiny High Veldt, where there was sand and sandy-coloured rock and sclusively tufts of sandy yellowish grass.

The Giraffe and the Zebra and the Eland and the Koodoo and the Hartebeest lived there; and they were „sclusively sandy-yellow-brownish all over; but the Leopard, he was the „sclusivest sandiest-yellowish-brownest of them all a greyish-yellowish catty-shaped kind of beast, and he matched the „sclusively yellowish-greyish-brownish colour of the High Veldt to one hair.

This was very bad for the Giraffe and the Zebra and the rest of them; for he would lie down by a „sclusively yellowish-greyish-brownish stone or clump of grass, and when the Giraffe or the Zebra or the Eland or the Koodoo or the Bush- Buck or the Bonte-Buck came by he would surprise them out of their jumpsome lives.”
