seine of leafshadow

Robot on his knees, the Abbé sat in the red rain of light that trembled through the shelved leaves of the great tree in the place. Ravidat sat at his feet in a seine of leafshadow. Monsieur le Maire in his high collar and the tricolor across his breast rolled the wine in his glass. Agnel and Estreguil stood on each side of Maurice Thaon, whose hands rested on their shoulders.

Guy Davenport, "Robot"
