7/27 In the printed book the chapter ends more abruptly as we see. The second reference is even more dramatic. It occurs when Lavengro has a conversation with his friend the gypsy Petulengro in a thunderstorm--when all are hurrying to the prize-fight. Here let Borrow tell his story: 'Look up there, brother!' I looked up. Connected with this tempest there was one feature to which I have already alluded--the wonderful colours of the clouds. |
