The narrator of "The Refusal" is a villager in the small town where the ceremony takes place. This allows the reader to hear his thoughts and description of the day’s events. Imagine you are one of the soldiers guarding the tax-collector. In a narrative of at least 300 words, retell the events of the story from the soldier’s perspective. Include your thoughts and feelings about the tax-collector, the ceremony, and the townspeople. Your narrative should contain details from the text as well as your own descriptive language.
