I wasn't ever rill happy, though, them days, but in the dream oh, I was happy, like on a nice mornin', only more so." Calliope looked at me fleetingly, as if she were measuring my ability to understand. "The funny part of it was," she said, "that in the dream I wasn't me at all.
I have only seen him one time out of four and then fleetingly, at odd moment; I scarcely knew more of him than the color of his coat, the tone of his voice, and the way he has of thumping his breast.
