My five-year-old daughter Mini cannot live without chattering
believe that in all her life she has not wasted a minute in silence. Her
mother is often vexed at this, and would
like to stop her prattle, but I would not.
For Mini to be quiet is unnatural, and I
cannot bear it long. And so my own talk
with her is always lively.
One morning, for instance, when I was in
the midst of the seventeenth
chapter of my new novel, my little
Mini stole into the room, and
putting her hand into mine, said:
'Father! Ramdayal, the doorkeeper,
calls a 'crow a krow'! He doesn't
know anything, does he?
Before I could explain to her the
difference between one language
and another in this world, she had embarked on the full tide of another
subject. 'What do you think, Father? Bhola says there is an elephant in the
cloud, blowing water out of his trunk, and that is why it rains!
And then, darting off anew, while I sat still, trying to think of some reply
to this: 'Father! What relation is Mother to you?'
embarked started something, especially something new and difficult that will take a
long time
