Then Peter tried slow and distinct. 'What  are  you  quacking  about?' and so on. The Never bird became irritated; they have very short tempers. 'You dunderheaded little jay,' she screamed, 'why don't you do as I tell you?' THEN PETER TRIED SLOW AND DISTINCT WHAT ARE YOU QUACKING ABOUT AND SO ON THE NEUFF BIRD BECAME IRRITATED THEY ARE VERY SURE TEMPERS YOU DUNDER HEADED LITTLE JAY SHE SCREAMED WHY DON'T YOU DO AS I TELL YOU
her. I can suppose only that, like Mrs. Darling and the rest of them, she was melted because he had all his first teeth. She called out to him what she had come for, and he called out to her what was she doing there; but of course neither of them understood the other's language. In fanciful stories people can talk to the birds freely, and I wish for the moment I could pretend that this was such a story, and say that Peter replied intelligently to the Never bird; but truth is best, and I want to tell only what really happened. Well, not only could they not understand each other, but they forgot their manners. 'I--want--you--to--get--into--the--nest,' the bird called, speaking as slowly and distinctly as possible, 'and--then--you--can--drift--ashore, but--I--am--too--tired--to--bring--it--any--nearer--so--you--must-- try--to--swim--to--it.' 'What are you quacking about?' Peter answered. 'Why don't you let the nest drift as usual?' 'I--want--you--' the bird said, and repeated it all over. RD FOR THOUGH HE HAD BEEN NICE TO HER HE HAD ALSO SOMETIMES TORMENTED HER I CAN SUPPOSE ONLY THAT LIKE MISSUS DARLING AND THE REST OF THEM SHE WAS MELTED BECAUSE HE HAD ALL HIS FIRST TEETH SHE CALLED OUT TO HIM WHAT SHE HAD COME FOR AND HE CALLED OUT TO HER WHAT WAS SHE DOING THERE BUT OF COURSE NEITHER OF THEM UNDERSTOOD THE OTHER'S LANGUAGE IN FANCIFUL STORIES PEOPLE CAN TALK TO THE BIRDS FREELY AND I WISH FOR THE MOMENT I COULD PRETEND THAT THIS WAS SUCH A STORY AND SAY THAT PETER APPLIED INTELLIGENTLY TO THE NEVER BIRD BUT TRUTH IS BEST AND I WANT TO TELL ONLY WHAT REALLY HAPPENED WELL NOT ONLY COULD THEY NOT UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER BUT THEY FORGOT THEIR MANNERS I WANT YOU TO GET INTO THE NEST THE BIRD CALLED SPEAKING AS SLOWLY AND DISTINCTLY AS POSSIBLE AND THEN YOU CAN DRIFT ASHORE BUT I AM TOO TIRED TO BRING IT ANY NEARER SO YOU MUST TRY TO SWIM TO IT WHAT ARE YOU QUACKING ABOUT PETER ANSWERED WHY DON'T YOU LET THE NEST DRIFT AS USUAL I WANT YOU THE BIRD SAID AND REPEATED ALL OVER
