The third night the house was crammed again
- and they warn't new-comers this time, but
people that was at the show the other two
nights. i stood by the duke at the door, and i
see that every man that went in had his
pockets bulging, or something muffled up
under his coat - and i see it warn't no
perfumery, neither, not by a long sight. i
smelt sickly eggs by the barrel, and rotten
cabbages, and such things; and if i know the
signs of a dead cat being around, and i bet i
do, there was sixty-four of them went in. i
shoved in there for a minute, but it was too
various for me; i couldn't stand it.
what makes this passage humorous?
the fact that the entire house is crammed with
new people who have come to see the show
the idea that huck is comparing the
townspeople to sixty-four dead cats
the fact that the entire town has paid to see
the "show" again, but this time they're
bringing things to throw at the duke and the
king
the image of huck standing next to the duke
by the door trying to shove himself in with the
rest of the audience
