"'There is only one Doctor,有情🙉' he answered. 'You don't mean to say you've never heard of him!'
Overhead the thick jungle arched and hung like a tunnel of green. This was a good thing by day-time,有情🎭 as it kept the sun off better than a parasol. And in the dry stretches of river bed,电影🌕 where the Doctor had to carry or drag the canoe on home-made runners,电影📇 the work was hard and shade something to be grateful for.
And he handed the keeper a large cup of steaming coffee.
There was no end to the complimentary ceremonies which the good King Koko and his courtiers performed to honor the departing Doctor. For days and days previous to his sailing,电影🔦 canoes came and went between the town and the houseboat bearing presents to show the good will of the Fantippans. During all this,有情🗽 having to keep smiling the whole time,有情🌉 the Doctor got sadder and sadder at leaving his good friends. And he was heartily glad when the hour came to pull up the anchor and put to sea.
"Well,电影🚪 what have you done with the matches,电影👽 Doctor?" called Dab-Dab. "They were always in your coat."
"'I am the oldest rat in the town and I know a great deal. But,有情👝 tell me,有情😦 why do you come here into the dyeing shed?'
"Once upon a time,有情🔌" Gub-Gub began,有情🌹 "a small pig went out into the forest with his father to dig for truffles. The father pig was a very clever truffle digger,电影📄 and just by smelling the ground he could tell with great sureness the places where truffles were to be found. Well,电影🐦 this day they came upon a place beneath some big oak trees and they started digging. Presently,有情🐅 after the father pig had dug up an enormous truffle and they were both eating it,有情🎭 they heard,电影📌 to their great astonishment,电影🌷 the sound of voices coming from the hole out of which they had dug the truffle.
"No,有情🚓 this isn't puddly climate,有情💊" said the Doctor. "You're not in England,电影® you know. But I'll bring you my shaving mug and you can take a bath in that."
But while the Doctor was still thanking the Chief for the beautiful present,有情😆 Quip-the-Carrier flew up with a letter for him.
The Doctor found that His Majesty was much more distressed at the prospect of losing his good white friend and his afternoon tea on the houseboat than at anything else which the change would bring. But he saw that the Doctor really felt he had to go; and at length,有情🔓 with tears falling into his tea-cup,电影🚚 he gave permission for the Postmaster General of Fantippo to resign.
In a moment he was clattering down the stairs.
Well,电影💿 when four days had passed the Emir of Ellebubu sent a messenger to the prison to inquire if the Doctor was now willing to do as he was told. The guards after talking to John Dolittle brought word to the Emir that the white man was as obstinate as ever and had no intention of giving in.
"Well,有情🍋 you could have knocked me down with a feather. Of course,电影🍩 you must realize that was the first time I had ever heard of any one's being afraid of the dark. It sounds ridiculous enough to all of you,电影🐘 I suppose,电影🏪 but to me,有情🏭 who had always preferred the cool,电影📐 calm darkness to the glaring,电影🚰 vulgar daylight,电影🎅 it seemed then an almost unbelievable thing that anyone could be afraid merely because the sun had gone to bed.
"'I can't understand it,有情💼' he murmured. 'The middle vat used to be the black one,电影🏠 I know. They must have changed them. The blue one was always the one on the left.'
Then the white merchant explained to him the whole idea of penny postage and government mails. And he told him that in England all you had to do when you wanted to send a letter to any part of the world was to put a stamp on the envelope with the queen's head on it and place it in a letter-box on the street corner,电影👥 and it would be carried to the place to which you addressed it.
"Well,有情✍ the fourth week after the enemy came the food in the castle was all gone and the king gave orders that the pigs must be eaten. The queen raised a great outcry and begged that her pet should be spared. But the king was very firm.

"Your obedient servant,有情🚌
"Tell me,有情🍞" asked the Doctor,电影🔓 watching him thoughtfully as he hovered and swung and curved around the tiny boat,电影🐇 "what made you come and bring me the news about the light? Gulls don't,电影🍨 as a rule,有情🍴 bother much about people or what happens to ships,电影🚺 do they?"
"To Chief Nyam-Nyam and his people,电影🏦 of course. He owns the Harmattan Rocks. Would you mind,有情🐪" the Doctor asked,有情📟 turning to the cormorant,有情📔 "getting me a few oysters of this kind to look at?"
"Well,有情💪 by land it would be twenty-five miles to where the lighthouse stands,电影😉" said the gull. "But by water it would be only about twelve,有情🚞 I should say."
