چکیده

Consciousness was upon him before he could get out of the way; not for him the slow, gracious wandering from the halls of sleep, but a summary, forcible ejection. . . .

A dusty thudding in his head made the scene before him beat like a pulse. . . . he sat up a little, and what met his bursting eyes roused to a frenzy the timpanist in his head.”
