Failing to extract from Rickman any distinct promise, he withdrew; but not before he had pressed upon his immediate acceptance a box of his favourites, the Flor di Dindigul. By this time Rickman's heart was exceedingly uncomfortable inside him. He had hated Soper. He thought it was all over, and he was glad to escape from these really very trying interviews to the quiet of his own room.
He sat down, leant forward, picked a straw off the flor and twisted it round and round his finger, reflecting. Little Bill put his head on Mother's lap, and asked for a piece of bread...He asked a second time. "There IS no bread, child," she said. "But me wants some, mumma."

The church was hung with garlands of it, he says, and such emotions seized him at the view that he choked.
The monotone of la lluna la pruna came to an end, and peace settled over the moon-lit country-side. It was not long before the whole Cabañal, with that gift for rapid perception of important things that little places have, was aware that the Rector's new boat was to be christened Flor de mayo.
