The choir…The creature was a party of boys, marching approximately in step in two
parallel lines and dressed in strangely eccentric clothing. Shorts, shirts,
and different garments they carried in their hands; but each boy wore
a square black cap with a silver badge on it. Their bodies, from throat
to ankle, were hidden by black cloaks which bore a long silver cross on
the left breast and each neck was finished off with a ham-bone frill. The
heat of the tropics, the descent, the search for food, and now this sweaty
march along the blazing beach had given them the complexions of newly
washed plums.
