Annotated text:
It flashed through my mind that the place
between Eros and the Queens Hall had
horribly changed since Orpen painted it in 1912,
also that even if I took the warnings of the
Ming and got there instantaneously, my modest
Munich would have to bracket, at my expense,
with islands more correctly known as Efate.
BNut after all I was not going. Rather I
intended to finish what I had begun. The girl
would find it in the morning, franked, and all
ready to go upon its way. I had told all I knew,
and felt very tired. Would he ignore what I had
said, leaving me to do my worst? And if so,
what worst could I do? Or would he come to
me and cringe for silence, relying on our old
association, when he had babbled at me knee,
the arthritic one, that surely the cabbage
butterflies were fragments of a poem God had
written and, as being too good for us, torn up?
Or would he simply try to do me in?
