Has this fellow no feeling of his business?
He sings at grave-making.
William Shakespeare
Often the sepulchre encloses, unawares,
Two hearts in the same coffin.
Alphonse De Lamartine
Pain when inside is stronger
It isn’t eased by sharing.
Alejandro Sanz, ‘ Si Hay Dios ’

Following the line traced by rainwater dripping from the eaves, the grave was easy to find. The figure knelt, fumbling among its clothes for a trowel and a small pick to scrape off the hard surface of the dark soil. It crumbled into soft, moist clods that gave off a rich smell of wood and moss.
A careful scraping of a few centimetres revealed blackened shreds of decayed cloth mixed with the earth.
The figure tugged away the cloth, still recognisable as a cot blanket, to reveal the oilskin enshrouding the body. Only fragments of the rope securing the bundle remained; where it had been pulled tight a deep mark was left on the canvas. Pushing aside the shreds of rope, the figure groped blindly for the edge of the cloth, and could feel it had been wrapped round several times. Tearing at the end of the bundle, the shroud fell open as though cut with a knife.
