-
and this, remember, is told by Tobin, the ex-priest:
-
In all this time,
-
[as they were riding across the plain without gunpowder]
-
In all this time the judge had spoke hardly a word.
-
So at dawn we were on the edge of a vast malpais
-
and his honor takes up a position on some lava rocks there
-
and he commences to give us an address.
-
See, there is that same structural position.
-
The judge occupies the place that
-
Satan does in Paradise Lost
-
and gives a speech: It was like a sermon but it
-
was no such sermon as any man of us had ever heard before.
