Las aventuras de Tom Sawyer
Capítulo 16, Página 4
“Tom,
I
wisht
you’d
come,
too.
Now
you
think
it
over.
We’ll
wait
for
you
when
we
get
to
shore.”
“Well,
you’ll
wait
a
blame
long
time,
that’s
all.”
Huck
started
sorrowfully
away,
and
Tom
stood
looking
after
him,
with
a
strong
desire
tugging
at
his
heart
to
yield
his
pride
and
go
along
too.
He
hoped
the
boys
would
stop,
but
they
still
waded
slowly
on.
It
suddenly
dawned
on
Tom
that
it
was
become
very
lonely
and
still.
He
made
one
final
struggle
with
his
pride,
and
then
darted
after
his
comrades,
yelling:
“Wait!
Wait!
I
want
to
tell
you
something!”
They
presently
stopped
and
turned
around.
When
he
got
to
where
they
were,
he
began
unfolding
his
secret,
and
they
listened
moodily
till
at
last
they
saw
the
“point”
he
was
driving
at,
and
then
they
set
up
a
warwhoop
of
applause
and
said
it
was
“splendid!”
and
said
if
he
had
told
them
at
first,
they
wouldn’t
have
started
away.
He
made
a
plausible
excuse;
but
his
real
reason
had
been
the
fear
that
not
even
the
secret
would
keep
them
with
him
any
very
great
length
of
time,
and
so
he
had
meant
to
hold
it
in
reserve
as
a
last
seduction.
The
lads
came
gayly
back
and
went
at
their
sports
again
with
a
will,
chattering
all
the
time
about
Tom’s
stupendous
plan
and
admiring
the
genius
of
it.
After
a
dainty
egg
and
fish
dinner,
Tom
said
he
wanted
to
learn
to
smoke,
now.
Joe
caught
at
the
idea
and
said
he
would
like
to
try,
too.
So
Huck
made
pipes
and
filled
them.
These
novices
had
never
smoked
anything
before
but
cigars
made
of
grapevine,
and
they
“bit”
the
tongue,
and
were
not
considered
manly
anyway.
Now
they
stretched
themselves
out
on
their
elbows
and
began
to
puff,
charily,
and
with
slender
confidence.
The
smoke
had
an
unpleasant
taste,
and
they
gagged
a
little,
but
Tom
said:
“Why,
it’s
just
as
easy!
If
I’d
a
knowed
this
was
all,
I’d
a
learnt
long
ago.”
