There
could
be
no
doubt
in
my
mind
that
all
this
had
taken
place
the
previous
evening
-
for
one
thing
,
Ishould
have
been
a
great
deal
hungrier
even
than
I
was
had
it
been
longer
ago
.
Very
well
,
what
was
this
,
then
?
Had
the
whole
hospital
,
the
whole
city
made
such
a
night
of
it
that
they
d
not
pulled
round
yet
?
52
About
which
point
I
was
interrupted
as
the
chorus
of
clocks
,
near
and
far
,
started
announcing
nine
.
53
For
the
third
time
I
played
hell
with
the
bell
.
As
I
lay
waiting
I
could
hear
a
sort
of
murmurousnessbeyond
the
door
.
It
seemed
composed
of
whimperings
,
slitherings
,
and
shufflings
,
punctuatedoccasionally
by
a
raised
voice
in
the
distance
.

But
still
no
one
came
to
my
room
.
55
By
this
time
I
was
slipping
back
once
more
.
The
nasty
,
childish
fancies
were
on
me
again
.
I
found
myselfwaiting
for
the
unseeable
door
to
open
and
horrible
things
to
come
padding
in
-
in
fact
,
I
wasn
t
perfectlysure
that
somebody
or
something
wasn
t
in
already
,
and
stealthily
prowling
round
the
room
.
.
.
.
56
Not
that
I
m
given
to
that
kind
of
thing
really
.
-
It
was
those
damned
bandages
over
my
eyes
,
the
medleyof
voices
that
had
shouted
back
at
me
down
the
corridor
.
But
I
certainly
was
getting
the
willies
-
and
onceyou
get
em
,
they
grow
.
Already
they
were
past
the
stage
where
you
can
shoo
them
off
by
whistling
orsinging
at
yourself
.
57
It
came
at
last
to
the
straight
question
:
was
I
more
scared
of
endangering
my
sight
by
taking
off
thebandages
or
of
staying
in
the
dark
with
the
willies
growing
every
minute
?

If
it
had
been
a
day
or
two
earlier
,
I
don
t
know
what
I
d
have
done
-
very
likely
the
same
in
the
end
-
butthis
day
I
could
at
least
tell
myself
:
59
"
Well
,
hang
it
,
there
can
t
be
a
lot
of
harm
if
I
use
common
sense
.
After
all
,
the
bandages
are
due
tocome
off
today
.
I
ll
risk
it
.
"
60
There
s
one
thing
II
put
to
my
credit
.
I
was
not
far
enough
gone
to
tear
them
off
wildly
.
I
had
the
sense
and
the
self
-
control
to
get
out
of
bed
and
pull
the
shade
down
before
I
started
on
the
safety
pins
.
