though

holding

reappear
elsewhere

was
discernible
through

semicircular
glass
fanlight
over
the
halldoor
.
The
halldoor
turned
gradually
on
its
hinges
.
In

the

reappeared
without
his
hat
,
with
his
candle
.
Did
Stephen
obey
his
sign
?
Yes
,
entering
softly
,
he
helped
to
close
and
chain
the
door
and
followed
softly
along
the
hallway
the
man
’
s
back
and
listed
feet
and
lighted
candle
past
a
lighted
crevice
of
doorway
on
the
left
and
carefully
down
a
turning
staircase
of
more
than
five
steps
into
the
kitchen
of
Bloom
’
s
house
.
