One party (the young and giddy portion of the crowd) held that it was a wedding, and pointed out Harris as the bridegroom; while the elder and more thoughtful among the populace inclined to the idea that it was a funeral, and that I was probably the corpse's brother.
Alcuni (la parte giovanile e fantasiosa della folla) sostenevano che si trattava d’un matrimonio e indicavano Harris come lo sposo; mentre i più attempati e sagaci della plebaglia eran tratti a credere che si trattasse d’un funerale, dicendo che probabilmente ero io il fratello del morto.
