Airs of Parabola | Third paragraph |
---|---|
1 - 18 | the Chessboard is one of many game-boards in Parabola. There are other games: some skill, some chance, some of daring and bluff. There are other kingdoms, and some of these do not consider it merit when they prevail, but only Fortune. |
20 - 28 | devils hunt now in the Forgotten Quarter. Time was when their silver hunting-horns rang out over Parabola instead […] Perhaps that is even where they got a taste for the sport – though one can't be sure. |
32 - 49 | there are dreamers who have slept for centuries, holding fast their corner of Parabola, in the dream-company of spouses and children long since passed into dust: a private Waswood for a singular past. But when they wake, Parabola will wash all clean. |
50 - 66 | there are pyramids and ziggurats […] There are cenotes[…], and hanging gardens, and ball-courts, all thriving as though newly built.[…] these districts conceal themselves from Londoners, so that you will not commit the effrontery of finding them antique. |
70 - 88 | spiders dream in Parabola, whole citadels of silk. If you could find that place, you could walk in those same palaces, though you would soon lose your way. |
91 - 96 | even Polythreme has dreams. Sometimes, its resting denizens will shed a sentient harpsichord or a disgruntled tuba into some adjacent sleeper's field. |
