EN CARNAVAL. - Allons-nous rire et gigotter!.... moi j'serai déguisé en malin!..... - Fameux!... on ne pourras pas te reconnaître!..
Trustman, Benjamin A., Trustman, Julia M. · 1845
Two men preparing to go to the carnival are holding their disguises in their hands. The humor here stems from the word "malin" - which can mean "the devil" (the 1st man's disguise), or "clever" (what the 2nd man is referring to, calling his friend stupid).
