A town and port in northwestern Israel in the eastern Mediterranean.
1The Pashalik of Gaza is at present annexed to that of Akka.
2The caravans coming from Akka generally halt for the night at Kanneytra.
3Away they flew, and Akka and the other wild geese followed them.
4Once again Akka and her flock had to take a night fly.
5Nils gave a cry of joy and took old Akka in his arms.
6When Akka, the leader-goose, talked in this way, the boy stepped briskly forward.
7When the fox yowled in this manner, old Akka, the leader-goose, was awakened.
8The Khan is on the great road from Akka to Damascus.
9A couple of moments later Akka stood in the storks' nest.
10But Akka had evidently made up her mind to help the black rats.
11When Akka said this, the stork raised his head and stared at her.
12He came right up to Akka, and looked sympathetic and serious.
13When Dunfin asked for anything not even Akka could say no.
14Now it was Akka's words to the fox that prevented him from sleeping.
15He heard Akka's calls, but did not understand what she said.
16This was not the first time that Akka had called on the aristocratic swans.
