marks of prolonged and sordid negligence
the door which was equipped with neither bell nor knocker was blistered and disdained
great field of lamps of a nocturnal city
wider labyrinths of a lamp lighted city
a great chocolate coloured pall lowered over heaven
the fog lifted a little and showed him a dingy street
light falling dimly through the foggy cupola
the fog still slept on the wing above the drowned city where lamps glittered like carbuncles
red baize of the cabinet door
