The pew is worn from many years of being sat on during services.  It looks fairly basic upon first glance.  But there is something just under the surface, something moving.

priest
alter boy
A am an alter boy of the street. I am doing different things all rhe time. I like to change places and visit new places.
Um, no Father. I was busy scrubbing the floors. I'm sorry. Oh, that explains it. My eyesight is not so great any more, it must have been your shadow I saw under the pew. But, I was cleaning over by the pulpit...are you alright Father? Too much reading perhaps. I came here from the nearby abbey to consult a most ponderous tome. What have you been studying? Can I see? Tell me my child, are you literate? No Father, I'm already 10! And ancient greek, can you read that as well? I don't think I know anyone from Greece... I only know those who have been dead for 1000 years. Shall I tell you the tale of Hypatia? Of course Father! I'll sit on the pew and listen. Hypatia taught in the library in Alexandra. She was a Patron Saint of Science.
