3. Michael managed to stand on top of the golden ball, holding on to the weather vane. This required much courage and therefore he showed that “he had a Cool head and iron nerves.”
4. The sight of people rushing out of their shops in the market place and crowding below to watch him standing on top of the church, made Michael extremely delighted.
