The Delight Makers

CHAPTER VI
25/51

On the disappearance of the last of their number, including the jesters, whoops and shouts fill the air again from without, and a second procession similar to the former marches into the court-yard.

It is composed of different persons similarly costumed, except that their paint is bluish instead of white.

No clowns accompany them.

They go through a similar performance, and sing the same songs; but everything is done with gravity and even solemnity.

This band is more numerous by at least ten couples, and as a consequence the spectacle is more striking on account of a greater variety of dress and finery.
