Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Cupid of Campion" by Francis J. Finn is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young boy named Clarence Esmond, who yearns for adventure and finds himself on an unexpected journey as he seeks to meet the enchanting "Bright-eyed Goddess of Adventure." Throughout his escapades, Clarence encounters a range of characters, including a mischievous butcher's boy named Abe Thompson and a group of gypsies that adds to the narrative's whimsical elements. The opening of the novel introduces Clarence as he engages in a lively conversation with Abe, setting the stage for their subsequent adventures. Following a series of humorous exchanges, Clarence decides to explore the nearby river. However, events soon take a turn when Abe's trickery leaves Clarence stranded in the boat without any means of rowing back. The plot quickly escalates as Clarence faces the challenges of being alone on the river, ultimately leading him to a group of gypsies who have captured him. With vivid descriptions of the settings and a playful tone, the beginning of the novel promises a humorous and adventurous journey filled with unpredictable encounters and the quest for self-discovery amidst the whimsical elements of youth.
