We of the Never-Never Chapter 1 - The Unknown Woman : To begin somewhere near the beginning, the Maluka - better known at that time as the new Boss for the Elsey - and I, his "missus", were at Darwin in the Northern Territory, waiting for the train that was to take us just as far as it could - one hundred and fifty miles - on our way to the Never-Never.
The little black princess Chapter 1 - Bett-Bett : Bett-Bett must have been a princess, for she was a king's neice; and, if that does not make a princess of anyone, it ought to do so. | |

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. We of the Never-Never Full of bright hopes, we rested in that Land of Wait-a-while, speaking of the years to come, when the bush-folk will have conquered the the Never-Never and lain it at the feet of great cities; and, waiting, and resting, we made merry and planned plans, all unconscious of the great Shadow that was even then hovering over us.
The little black princess I walked back to the homestead, feeling strangely lonely, for I had grown accustomed to the little black shadow that was always chattering at my heels, but, when I looked at the little pearl shell, as it lay in my hand, I knew that, in a little while, Bett-Bett would need her Missus, and come back bright and happy again.
