All through the night that followed Sam Thayor slept soundly on his spring bed of fragrant balsam, oblivious to the Clown's snoring or the snapping logs burning briskly in the stove, his head pillowed on his boots wound in his blanket. Beneath the canopy of stars the torrent roared and the great trees whined and creaked, their shaggy tops whistling in the stiff breeze.
They're wanted for these crooked jobs." Those addressed started on a chase, pursuant to directions of their leader who had seen Murdock and Tapp run away as he came up to the prostrate Andy. The man himself helped Andy to the clown's tent. Their entrance aroused Billy Blow, who sprang up quickly as he noticed that Andy walked in a pained, disabled fashion.
And, when the whim changes, it is most easy and delightfully disconcerting to play with the respectable and cowardly bourgeois fetishes and to laugh and epigram at the flitting god-ghosts and the debaucheries and follies of wisdom. The clown's the thing! The clown! If one must be a philosopher, let him be Aristophanes. And no one at the table thinks I am jingled. I am in fine fettle, that is all.
'How comes he wounded? He was but one to a score. 'My lord, he would else have killed us all. 'He was armed then? Eccles was silent. 'Was he armed? repeated the marquis. 'He had a heavy whip, my lord. 'H'm! said the marquis, and turned to the prisoner. 'Is thy name Heywood, sirrah? he asked.

"Bowe, you take your wife and child into the dressing tent, so the circus can go on.
Whatever he said, the result was an expression of benignity and condescension on the clown's face as far as paint would allow of such expression. "Glad to meet you, Master Willders," he said. "Proud to know anyone connected with T. Tippet, Esquire, who's a trump. Give us your flipper.
"I'll bring her, sir, if you'll only go now. I'll bring her I will, as true as I stand here!" "If you don't!" cried Valentine, still distrustful, and trembling all over with agitation "If you don't!"

Willie might have received an answer if he had waited for one, but he was too impatient, and went rattling on. "And who d'ye think, mother, came to see old Tippet the other day, but little Cattley, the clown's boy.
"He'll give a cent, eh? to any one who keeps the boys from crawling in the tent. Now, if that isn't a bear or a fox or a wolf maybe I can work for him, and earn that money. I'll try." So he peeped out of the bushes, and there he saw a nice monkey, all dressed up in a clown's suit, spotted red, white and blue. And the monkey was playing a tune on a fiddle.
