उत्तर
They were dressed in strangely eccentric clothing: shorts, shirts and different garments they carried in their hands. Then- bodies from throat to ankle were hidden by black cloaks which bore a long silver cross on the left breast.
The boy who controlled them came forward, vaulted on to the platform with his cloak flying and peered into what was almost complete darkness.
“Where’s the man with the trumpet?” Ralph, sensing his sun blindness, answered him,
“There’s no man with a trumpet only me.” The boy came close and peered down at Ralph screwing up his face. As he did so, he turned quickly,
“Isn’t there a ship then?”
He was tall, thin and bony. His face was crumpled aad freckled out. Out of his face stared two light blue eyes which were frustrated now and turning to anger,
“Isn’t there a man here?
Ralph spoke back to him, “No, we’re having a meeting. Come and join us.”
