1 Roger remained, watching the littluns.
2 He licked his lips and remained standing.
3 He was uncertain whether to stand up or remain sitting.
4 Simon remained, looking out of the hole in the shelter.
5 He wore the remains of shorts and his feet were bare like Jack's.
6 Piggy took off his damaged glasses and cleaned the remaining lens.
7 Even if he shut his eyes the sow's head still remained like an after-image.
8 The two that remained seemed nothing more than a dark extension of the rock.
9 Ralph wiped the salt water off his lips and tried again, but the shell remained silent.
10 The head remained there, dim-eyed, grinning faintly, blood blackening between the teeth.
11 Then Simon stood up and took the conch from Piggy, who was so astonished that he remained on his feet.
12 Ralph was kneeling by the remains of the fire like a sprinter at his mark and his face was half-hidden by hair and smut.
13 Each of them wore the remains of a black cap and ages ago they had stood in two demure rows and their voices had been the song of angels.
14 Instead of remaining and playing, he swam with steady strokes under Simon and crawled out of the other side of the pool to lie there, sleek and streaming like a seal.
15 A little boy who wore the remains of an extraordinary black cap on his red hair and who carried the remains of a pair of spectacles at his waist, started forward, then changed his mind and stood still.
16 Nowadays he sometimes found that he saw more clearly if he removed his glasses and shifted the one lens to the other eye; but even through the good eye, after what had happened, Ralph remained unmistakably Ralph.
