I heard heavy footsteps outside and the rattle of the doorhandle. "You are very foolish!" she murmured. "Please let my father in." Mr. Parker returned in high good humor. He had met a host of acquaintances and declared that he had not had a dull moment. As for the performance he seemed to have forgotten there was one going on at all. "I am for supper," he suggested.
The dwarf acolytes, giggling, peeping, nudging, ogling, Easterkissing, zigzag behind him. Shall carry my heart to thee, Shall carry my heart to thee, And the breath of the balmy night Shall carry my heart to thee! THE DOORHANDLE: Theeee! ZOE: The devil is in that door. Thank your mother for the rabbits. I'm very fond of what I like. After? Or because not? Or the double event?
Well, I thought, Nimfodora Semyonovna will regale me now with bilberry water and other cooling drinks and I had already taken hold of the doorhandle when all at once there was the tramping of feet and shrieking, and shouting of boys from round the corner of a hut in the courtyard.... I looked round. Good heavens!

Count Victor stepped into darkness, thrust lightly as he went by the servant's hand, and the door closed with a click behind him. He was a prisoner! He had the humour to laugh softly at the conventionality of the deception as he vainly felt in an empty room for a non-existing doorhandle, and realised that Mungo had had his own way after all.
At last he took up the candle and again approached the door with the revolver held up in readiness; he put his left hand, in which he held the candle, on the doorhandle. But he managed awkwardly: the handle clanked, there was a rattle and a creak. "He will fire straightway," flashed through Pyotr Stepanovitch's mind.
The greenish light beat full on the sunken doorway, so that only the lowermost steps remained in shadow. However unattractive the temporary complexion of the sun, I was glad of his company as I descended the steps. The twisting dragons of the doorhandle attracted me as I drew near.
