(246) ch. 30 "Casting my eyes along the street at a certain point in my progress, I beheld Trabb's boy approaching, lashing himself with an empty blue bag. Deeming that a serene and unconscious contemplation of him would be best beseen me, I advanced with the expression of countenance, and was rather congratulating myself on my seccess, when suddently the knees of Trabb's boy smote together, his hair uprose, his cap fell off, he trembled violently in every limb, staggered out into the rod and crying to the populace, "Hold me! I'm so frightened!" feigned to be in paroxysm of terror and contrition, occasioned by the dignity of my appereance. As I every mark of extreme humiliation, he prostrated himself in the dust." The Trabb boy continues to follow Pip and do the same with, but next time he yells out, "Don't know yah, don't know yah, 'pon my soul, don't know yah."
Why was Trabb's boy making fun of Pip?
