His dreams are shallow, furtive¹ things. His legs switch. His lips move a little against the pillow. The skin of his eyelids² shudders³ as his eyeballs turn, surveying the inner wall of vision. Otherwise he is as dead, beyond harm. The slash⁴ of sun on the wall above him slowly knifes down, cuts across his chest, becomes a coin on the floor, and vanishes. In shadow he suddenly awakes, his ghostly blue irises⁵ searching the unfamiliar⁶ planes for the source of men's voices. These voices are downstairs, and a rumble⁷ suggests that they are moving the furniture, tramping in circles, hunting him. But a familiar bulbous basso rings out, it is Tothero, and around this firm center the noises downstairs crystallize as the sounds of card?playing, drinking, horseplay, companionship. Rabbit rolls in his hot hollow and turns his face to his cool companion, the wall, and through a red cone⁸ of consciousness falls asleep again.

"Harry⁹! Harry!" The voice is plucking at his shoulder, rumpling¹⁰ his hair. He rolls away from the wall, squinting¹¹ upward into vanished sunshine. Tothero sits in the shadows, a hulk of darkness dense¹² with some anxiousness. His dirty?milk face leans forward, scarred by a lopsided smile. There is a smell of whisky. "Harry, I've got a girl for you!"
