Том Сойер - обыкновенный американский мальчишка, увлекающийся и, по мнению взрослых, непослушный, неугомонный выдумщик, но и верный друг. Герой Марка Твена подкупает находчивостью и простодушием, предприимчивостью и любопытством. Приключения Тома помогают увидеть врожденную доброту мальчика, неподдельную жажду свободы и справедливости.

1812She was as simple-hearted and honest as the day was long, and so she was an easy victim.
1813She gathered together her quack periodicals and her quack medicines, and thus armed with death, went about on her pale horse, metaphorically speaking, with "hell following after."
1814But she never suspected that she was not an angel of healing and the balm of Gilead in disguise, to the suffering neighbors.
1815The water treatment was new, now, and Tom's low condition was a windfall to her.
1816She had him out at daylight every morning, stood him up in the woodshed and drowned him with a deluge of cold water; then she scrubbed him down with a towel like a file, and so brought him to; then she rolled him up in a wet sheet and put him away under blankets till she sweated his soul clean and "the yellow stains of it came through his pores"--as Tom said.
1817Yet notwithstanding all this, the boy grew more and more melancholy and pale and dejected.
1818She added hot baths, sitz baths, shower baths, and plunges.
1819The boy remained as dismal as a hearse.
1820She began to assist the water with a slim oatmeal diet and blister-plasters.
1821She calculated his capacity as she would a jug's, and filled him up every day with quack cure-alls.
1822Tom had become indifferent to persecution by this time.
1823This phase filled the old lady's heart with consternation.
1824This indifference must be broken up at any cost.
1825Now she heard of Pain-killer for the first time.
1826She ordered a lot at once.
1827She tasted it and was filled with gratitude.
1828It was simply fire in a liquid form.
1829She dropped the water treatment and everything else, and pinned her faith to Pain-killer.
1830She gave Tom a teaspoonful and watched with the deepest anxiety for the result.
1831Her troubles were instantly at rest, her soul at peace again; for the "indifference" was broken up.
1832The boy could not have shown a wilder, heartier interest, if she had built a fire under him.
1833Tom felt that it was time to wake up; this sort of life might be romantic enough, in his blighted condition, but it was getting to have too little sentiment and too much distracting variety about it.
1834So he thought over various plans for relief, and finally hit pon that of professing to be fond of Pain-killer.
1835He asked for it so often that he became a nuisance, and his aunt ended by telling him to help himself and quit bothering her.
1836If it had been Sid, she would have had no misgivings to alloy her delight; but since it was Tom, she watched the bottle clandestinely.
1837She found that the medicine did really diminish, but it did not occur to her that the boy was mending the health of a crack in the sitting-room floor with it.
1838One day Tom was in the act of dosing the crack when his aunt's yellow cat came along, purring, eying the teaspoon avariciously, and begging for a taste.
1839Tom said:
1840"Don't ask for it unless you want it, Peter."
1841But Peter signified that he did want it.
1842"You better make sure."
1843Peter was sure.
1844"Now you've asked for it, and I'll give it to you, because there ain't anything mean about me; but if you find you don't like it, you mustn't blame anybody but your own self."
1845Peter was agreeable.
1846So Tom pried his mouth open and poured down the Pain-killer.
1847Peter sprang a couple of yards in the air, and then delivered a war-whoop and set off round and round the room, banging against furniture, upsetting flower-pots, and making general havoc.
1848Next he rose on his hind feet and pranced around, in a frenzy of enjoyment, with his head over his shoulder and his voice proclaiming his unappeasable happiness.
1849
