Question

I stayed by it to load my gun, and then coming away, I could easily see the thieves sitting upon all the trees about me, as if they only waited till I was gone away, and the event proved it to be so; for as I walked off, as if I was gone, I was no sooner out of their sight than they dropped down one by one into the corn again.

Accepted Answer

Me detuve a cargar mi escopeta y pude ver a los ladrones posados en los árboles que estaban a mi alrededor, como esperando a que me marchara, lo que en efecto ocurrió pues, apenas me alejé de su vista, bajaron al sembrado, uno a uno, nuevamente.
