He wasn’t so good, either. As far as I know he was what they called a clown, a barker in a carousel.

[Pleased.] Did he tell funny jokes?

LILIOM

Lots of ’em. And he sang funny songs, too.

LOUISE

In the carousel?

LILIOM

Yes—but he was something of a bully, too. He’d fight anyone. He even hit your dear little mother.
