Clemens, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (up to Ch 10)

"There warn't no color in his face, where his face showed; it was white; not like another man's white, but a white to make a body sick, a white to make a body's flesh crawl--a tree-toad white, a fish-belly white."
~page 85

"Two months or more run along, and my clothes got to be all rags and dirt, and I didn't see how I'd ever got to like it so well at the widow's..." (90).

"You don't know about me, without you have read a book by the name of "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," but that ain't no matter."

" 'Look at it, gentlemen, and ladies all; take behold of it; shake it. There's a hand that was the hand of a hog; but it ain't so no more; it's the hand of a man that's started in on a new life, and I'll die before he'll go back.' " (Twain) p.34

"All I wanted was to go somewheres; all I wanted was a change, I warn't particular"

"There is ways to keep off some kinds of bad luck, but this wasn't one of them kind; so I never tried to do anything, but just poked along low-spirited and on the watch-out." (pg: 83)

Poe's Irony and My Sympathy

That title was obviously supposed to be TWAIN'S IRONY. I guess I had Poe on the brain.

This will be my third comment. I actually left my copy of Huck Finn at school over break (the one we are supposed to use) so I had to go to the local library and sign out a different version so I would not get behind in the reading. The page numbers will be way off as this story is actually combined with The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Sorry about that.

Okay that link didn't seem to work...

"six times seven is thirty-five" (82).

"You're educated, too, they say; can read and write. You think you're better'n your father, now, don't you, because he can't? I'll take it out of you." (Twain 86)

"It swore every boy to stick to the band and never tell any of the secrets; and if anybody done anything to any boy in the band, whichever boy was ordered to kill that person and his family must do it, and he mustn't eat and he mustn't sleep till he had killed them and hacked a cross in their breasts, which was the sign of the band." (p.9)

"I had been to school most of the time, and could spell, and read and write just a little, and could say the multiplication table up to six times seven is thirty five, and I don't reckon i could get no further if i was to live forever. I don't take no stock in mathematics, anyway." (Twain 82)
