About two o'clock
The Festival -- The Gypsy Song -- Piramus of Rome -- The Scotchman -- Gypsy Names . On the following day there was much feasting amongst the Romany chals of Mr. Petulengro 's party . Throughout the forenoon the Romany chies did scarcely anything but cook flesh , and the flesh which they cooked was swine 's flesh . About two o'clock , the chals dividing themselves into various parties , sat down and partook of the fare , which was partly roasted , partly sodden . I dined that day with Mr. Petulengro and his wife and family , Ursula , Mr. and Mrs. Chikno , and Sylvester and his two children . Sylvester , it will be as well to say , was a widower , and had consequently no one to cook his victuals for him , supposing he had any , which was not always the case , Sylvester 's affairs being seldom in a prosperous state . He was noted for his bad success in trafficking , notwithstanding the many hints which he received from Jasper , under whose protection he had placed himself , even as Tawno Chikno had done , who himself , as the reader has heard on a former occasion , was anything but a wealthy subject , though he was at all times better off than Sylvester , the Lazarus of the Romany tribe .
