There had evidently been recent entertainment, for on the far side of the square a little knot of women stood conversing by the town stocks, round which lay a mess of rotten fruit and vegetables.
Era evidente que había habido jolgorio hacía poco, porque en el otro extremo de la plaza se veía un grupo de mujeres parloteando junto al cepo municipal y el suelo estaba cubierto de frutas y verduras podridas.
