[speaking to Billy Fish in Kafiri]
Billy Fish:
Ootah say take your pick. He have twenty three daughters.
Danny:
Those are his daughters? Why the dirty old beggar!
Peachy Carnehan:
Now, now Danny. Different countries, different ways. He's only being hospitable according to his lights. Billy, tell him one's as pretty as the next and we cannot choose.
[Billy translates; Ootah replies in Kafiri]
Billy Fish:
Ootah say he also have thirty-two sons if you are liking boys.
Peachy Carnehan:
[angrily]
Tell him he makes my gorge rise; tell him!
Danny:
Now Peachy, different countries, different ways. Tell Ootah we have vowed not to take a woman until all his enemies are vanquished.
