Toby took the nuts offered and seated himself on a convenient stone to eat them, and at the same time to see all that was going on around him. The coming

was yet quite early in the morning, and the tents were just being erected by the
mer. Toby had followed, with eager eyes, everything that looked as if it belonged
to the circus, from the time the first wagon had entered the town until the street
parade had been made, and everything was being prepared for the afternoon's
performance
Which selection from this text, an excerpt from Toby Tyler, by James
