Bless Me Ultima Chapter VIII Outline Paraphrase: It's spring now, and Antonio's brother's are getting restless. They want to leave, and have no intention of following their father's dream of going to California. They jokingly asked Antonio if he was going to be a priest, and if he would bless them. He said he would bless them, and made the sign of the cross like he had done in his dream, but they just laughed. It must be their Márez blood. Antonio wonders that because they are leaving, will he ever know them. Techniques: · Foreshadowing I believe is used, again. The end of the chapter, after his brother's laughed at him, Antonio still wants to bless them. This is most definitely a sign that Antonio will grow up to be a priest if I ever saw one.
