Excerpt from The Crow's-Nest
And curtains. Chairs and sofas and the mantelpiece, which is hard to explain and harder to resist. I feel it in all its insidious power this morning as I am bidding them farewell for a considerable time; I would not have believed that a venerable Axminster and an arm-chair on three castors could absorb and hold so much affection; verily I think,-standing in the door, it was these things that made Lot's wife turn her unlucky head. Dear me, how they enter.
