  4. And down in the cellar … Down in the cellar brown boot box remains of a cot two brass mantel clocks buckets and brushes and misty old socks damp pile of coal and a splintered pine door rusty rat trap and a snaggle- toothed saw six mildewy blankets piled on the stone floor (and… something’s… breathing)
