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.

2037"No," assented Tom, "they don't kill the women--they're too noble.
2038And the women's always beautiful, too.
2039"And don't they wear the bulliest clothes!
2040Oh no!
2041All gold and silver and di'monds," said Joe, with enthusiasm.
2042"Who?" said Huck.
2043"Why, the pirates."
2044Huck scanned his own clothing forlornly.
2045"I reckon I ain't dressed fitten for a pirate," said he, with a regretful pathos in his voice; "but I ain't got none but these."
2046But the other boys told him the fine clothes would come fast enough, after they should have begun their adventures.
2047They made him understand that his poor rags would do to begin with, though it was customary for wealthy pirates to start with a proper wardrobe.
2048Gradually their talk died out and drowsiness began to steal upon the eyelids of the little waifs.
2049The pipe dropped from the fingers of the Red-Handed, and he slept the sleep of the conscience-free and the weary.
2050The Terror of the Seas and the Black Avenger of the Spanish Main had more difficulty in getting to sleep.
2051They said their prayers inwardly, and lying down, since there was nobody there with authority to make them kneel and recite aloud; in truth, they had a mind not to say them at all, but they were afraid to proceed to such lengths as that, lest they might call down a sudden and special thunderbolt from heaven.
2052Then at once they reached and hovered upon the imminent verge of sleep--but an intruder came, now, that would not "down." It was conscience.
2053They began to feel a vague fear that they had been doing wrong to run away; and next they thought of the stolen meat, and then the real torture came.
2054They tried to argue it away by reminding conscience that they had purloined sweetmeats and apples scores of times; but conscience was not to be appeased by such thin plausibilities; it seemed to them, in the end, that there was no getting around the stubborn fact that taking sweetmeats was only "hooking," while taking bacon and hams and such valuables was plain simple stealing--and there was a command against that in the Bible.
2055So they inwardly resolved that so long as they remained in the business, their piracies should not again be sullied with the crime of stealing.
2056Then conscience granted a truce, and these curiously inconsistent pirates fell peacefully to sleep.
2057CHAPTER XIV
2058WHEN Tom awoke in the morning, he wondered where he was.
2059He sat up and rubbed his eyes and looked around.
2060Then he comprehended.
2061It was the cool gray dawn, and there was a delicious sense of repose and peace in the deep pervading calm and silence of the woods.
2062Not a leaf stirred; not a sound obtruded upon great Nature's meditation.
2063Beaded dewdrops stood upon the leaves and grasses.
2064A white layer of ashes covered the fire, and a thin blue breath of smoke rose straight into the air.
2065Joe and Huck still slept.
2066Now, far away in the woods a bird called; another answered; presently the hammering of a woodpecker was heard.
2067Gradually the cool dim gray of the morning whitened, and as gradually sounds multiplied and life manifested itself.
2068The marvel of Nature shaking off sleep and going to work unfolded itself to the musing boy.
2069A little green worm came crawling over a dewy leaf, lifting two-thirds of his body into the air from time to time and "sniffing around," then proceeding again--for he was measuring, Tom said; and when the worm approached him, of its own accord, he sat as still as a stone, with his hopes rising and falling, by turns, as the creature still came toward him or seemed inclined to go elsewhere; and when at last it considered a painful moment with its curved body in the air and then came decisively down upon Tom's leg and began a journey over him, his whole heart was glad--for that meant that he was going to have a new suit of clothes--without the shadow of a doubt a gaudy piratical uniform.
2070Now a procession of ants appeared, from nowhere in particular, and went about their labors; one struggled manfully by with a dead spider five times as big as itself in its arms, and lugged it straight up a tree-trunk.
