An old priest walked to and fro at times looking up from his breviary to say a pleasant word or to check some threatening quarrel. Presently he paused beside the boy who was at the moment intently watching a bird on a branch overhead. As the priest turned the boy had thrown himself on the grass and was laughing heartily.
