to suffer, from undue regard for the weak and persistent 

 pursuit of the strong. 



Hyajna-dogs kc-pt in captivity are extraordinarily 

 savage, yet show a decided predilection tor domesticated

 heterogeneous animals is hardly to be taken seriously, 

 apart from the improbability ot such a crossing being 

 effected. The sight of a troop of hya-na-dogs in lull 

 chase made me long tor a good hunter!
