Court Of Star Chamber LAW AND LEGAL
Definition:

This was an English court of very ancient origin, but new-modeled by St. 3 Hen. VII. c. 1, aud 21 Hen. VIII. c. 20, consisting of divers lords, spiritual and temporal, being prlvy councillors, together with two judges of the courts of common law, without the lnterveu-tion of any jury. The jurisdiction extended legally over riots, perjury, misbehavior of sheriffs, and other misdemeanors contrary to the laws of the land; yet It was after-wards stretched to the asserting of all proc-lamations and orders of state, to the vindi-cating of illegal commissions and grants of monopolies; holding for honorable that which it pleased, and for just that which it profited, and becoming both a court of law

He discovers that it's agreat job. He can sleep all he wants, play and make fun ofpeople and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime.However, eventually the crowds tire of him and he tires ofjust swinging on tires. He begins to notice that the people are paying moreattention to the lion in the cag e next to his. Not wanting tolose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top ofhis cage, crawls across a partition, and dangles from the topto the lion's cage. Of course, this makes the lion furious,but the crowd loves it. At the end of the day the zoo-keepercomes and gives the mime a raise for being such a goodattraction. Well, this goes on for some time, the mime keeps tauntingthe lion, the crowds grow larger, and his salary keeps goingup.
