Question : 84 of 150

Marks: +1, -0

Given below are six sentences taken from a paragraph. The first and the last sentences are numbered S1 and S2 and are placed in the first and last positions respectively and are fixed in their positions. The other four sentences between the first and last sentences are jumbled up and are numbered A, B, C, and D. Rearrange the jumbled sentences in a logical sequence keeping the unity and coherence of the paragraph intact. Choose the correct alternative that best describes the sequence.

S1. Laurella kissed his hand, and let one farewell drop, for the padre and Antonio to divide between them.

A. But after they had turned their backs, he let his eyes travel but a short way with the padre, as he went toiling over the deep bed of small, loose stones; he soon sent them after the maiden, who, turning to the right, had begun to climb the heights, holding one hand above her eyes to protect them from the scorching sun.

B. At her feet lay the marina; the rugged rocks rose high around her; the sea was shining in the rarest of its deep blue splendour.

C. Just before the path disappeared behind high walls, she stopped, as if to gather breath, and looked behind her.

D. Antonio, however, appropriated no part of it to himself; he pulled off his cap exclusively to the padre, without even looking at Laurella.

S2. The scene was surely worth a moment's pause.
