Philip rose, and, for the first time since his illness, walked, but with feeble steps, to and fro the room.

Poor, petty interests of a day, how slight! Again the noise, a little stir, a sort of quiet moan, or something that he could not quite define; but it seemed, whenever he heard it, as if some fact thrust itself through the dream-work with which he was circumfused; something alien to his fantasies, yet not powerful enough to dispel them.
