Cadascú d'ells portaria hams i cordills, i les provisions que pogués robar de la manera més ombrívola i misteriosa, com escau als bandejats: i abans que la tarda fos passada s'havien enginyat per gaudir la dolça ufana d'escampar que ben tost la ciutat «sabria alguna cosa».
Each would bring hooks and lines, and such provision as he could steal in the most dark and mysterious way--as became outlaws. And before the afternoon was done, they had all managed to enjoy the sweet glory of spreading the fact that pretty soon the town would "hear something."
