Which excerpt from The Land contains descriptive narration? Early the following morning the Alabama man came to the stables where Mitchell and I were tending to a gelding.
O I put him through paces, first a trot followed by a gallop before slowing him down and taking him back to the cool
of a shade tree.

O I glanced again at Mitchell, who kept on grooming the gelding, but his eyes did meet mine, letting me know he
knew the same as I about this man Ray Sutcliffe.
