Els minyons tornaren al campament, força esporuguits; pero hi trobaren encara quelcom de plaent, perque el gran sicomor, l'abric de sos jaços, era convertit a ruina, enderrocat pel llamp, i ells no hi havien estat davall quan la catastrofe s'esdevingué.
The boys went back to camp, a good deal awed; but they found there was still something to be thankful for, because the great sycamore, the shelter of their beds, was a ruin, now, blasted by the lightnings, and they were not under it when the catastrophe happened.
