I got out of the coach, gave a box I had into the ostler's charge, to be kept till I called for it; paid my fare; satisfied the coachman, and was going: the brightening day gleamed on the sign of the inn, and I read in gilt letters, "The Rochester Arms."
Me apeé, dejé mi equipaje en la posada, anunciando que volvería a buscarlo, pagué el pasaje, gratifiqué al cochero y el carruaje partió. El sol arrancaba destellos de la muestra de la posada, en cuyas doradas letras leí: A las armas de Rochester.
