After he'd followed Roger's example and trampled the sand castle of the three littluns Maurice hurried away and to quote from the book... 'In his other life Maurice had received chastisement for filling a younger eye with sand. Now, though there was no parent to let fall a heavy hand, Maurice still felt the unease of wrong-doing.
