Why is the angel described as speaking like a Norweigan sailor?
everbody else speaks Latin.

Other than the Old Man, the other characters speak Spanish, thus, the townspeople cannot understand his foreign dialect. His voice is was said to be "strong" like a sailors.... I take that to mean commanding. The angel's dialect is uncomprehensible.... possibly Norwegian from what we're told. None-the-less, we can't be sure of that because no one could understand him anyway. All we know is that he's a foreigner.
