"Ada gerakan di sepanjang pinggiran visi Chauncey, dan dia menjentikkan kepalanya ke kiri. Pada pandangan pertama, apa yang tampak seperti malaikat besar yang memuncaki monumen terdekat naik tinggi. Bukan batu atau marmer, bocah itu memiliki tangan dan kaki. Tubuhnya telanjang, kakinya telanjang, dan celana panjang petani menggantung rendah di pinggangnya. Dia melompat turun dari monumen, ujung rambutnya meneteskan hujan. Itu meluncur turun wajahnya, yang gelap seperti orang Spanyol."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

There was movement along the fringe of Chauncey's vision, and he snapped his head to the left. At first glance what appeared to be a large angel topping a nearby monument rose to full height. Neither stone nor marble, the boy had arms and legs. His torso was naked, his feet were bare, and peasant trousers hung low on his waist. He hopped down from the monument, the ends of his hair dripping rain. It slid down his face, which was dark as a Spaniard's.
