" she told him , by no means that there were many folks very unlike a harmless girl and boy , such as they were , who lived in a certain other quarter of the earth , who had killed off all of their kinsfolk . that if he would live blameless and not endanger his life , he must never go where they were . this only served to inflame the boy 's curiosity . he soon after took his bow and arrows and went in that direction . after walking a long time and meeting no one , he became tired , and stretched himself upon a high green knoll where the day 's warmth had melted off the snow .
to see the world .
