It was some time before Snowball could recover his exact equilibrium; for, of all sorts of climate, that least endurable to the Coromantee negro is a cold one.
While passing the Catamaran towards the wake, Snowball had caught sight of its fan-like fin, which apprised him of the direction it was taking, at the same time revealing to him its design.
It was also presently noised in the town how the Recorder's house was possessed, his rooms taken up, and his palace made the seat of the war; and no sooner was it noised abroad, but they took the alarm as warmly, and gave it out to others of his friends, and you know, as a snowball loses nothing by rolling, so in little time the whole town was possessed that they must expect nothing from the Prince but destruction; and the ground of the business was this, the Recorder was afraid, the Recorder trembled, and the captains carried it strangely to the Recorder.
And this thought rolled and grew like a snowball, until it seemed to crush him. "I can confide my griefs to none. I may speak to none of the gnawing worm within. My secret is my prisoner; if I let the captive escape, I shall be his!" And the godlike power that dwelt within him suffered and strove. "O Lord, my Lord!" he cried, in his despair, "be merciful and grant me faith.
We wouldn't break any windows." "I don't see any reason why you shouldn't have a snowball fight," said Mr. Carter promptly.

"I'm glad you came over, Jennie," said Joe, as he opened the door for the little girl. "What have you?" "My new China Cat, named Snowball. I brought her over so she could play with your Nodding Donkey." "I guess maybe they know one another," said Joe.
The adventures of Snowball and his protege, from the blowing up of the Pandora until six suns had risen and gone down over the ocean, if not so varied as those of Ben Brace and his protege, were nevertheless of sufficient interest to deserve a brief narration.
Plash into the water went the two baited hooks, both at once; and, almost before the ripples caused by the plunge had ceased to circle upon the surface, a still louder plashing could be heard, and a much rougher ripple seen, in short, a large space of the surface agitated into foam, where a brace of albacores were fluking and struggling on the respective hooks of Snowball and the sailor.
Snowball began to snore almost as soon as he had closed his eyelids, and as if the shutting of his eyes had either occasioned or strengthened the current of breath through his nostrils. And such a sound as the snore of the Coromantee was rarely heard upon the ocean, except in the "spouting" of a whale or the "blowing" of a porpoise. It did not wake the little Lalee.
