This is, however, only the opening of the orchestra. The cocks wake up if there is the faintest moonshine and begin an antiphonal service between responsive barn-yards.
Brooks groaned in the next room and called Rose, who went in to minister to her real needs, or to condole with her fancied ones, whichever course of action appeared to be the more agreeable at the moment. Mrs. Brooks desired conversation, it seemed, or at least she desired an audience for a monologue, for she recognized no antiphonal obligations on the part of her listeners.
Then, if you like, we can chant confidences in an antiphonal chorus. Just now your er son is not enjoying himself apparently, and ... the attention of the police had best not be called to this house too often in one night." His levity seemed to displease and perturb the woman; she turned from him with an impatient movement of her shoulders. "Freddie, dear, do you feel able to walk?" "Eh?

In the gypsy camp beside us insomnia reigns. A little forge is clinking and clanking. Donkeys raise their antiphonal lament. Dogs salute the stars in chorus.
