Una tremenda patacada caigué damunt les espatlles de Tom, i una que hi feia joc damunt les de Joe; i per espai de dos minuts la pols seguí brollant dels dos gecs, i tota l'escola va gaudir-se'n.
A tremendous whack came down on Tom's shoulders, and its duplicate on Joe's; and for the space of two minutes the dust continued to fly from the two jackets and the whole school to enjoy it.
