Even as his frame was shrunken, so had the circle of his interests contracted; he could no longer speak or think on the subjects which had fired him through the better part of his life; if he was driven to try and utter himself on the broad questions of social wrong, of the people's cause, a senile stammering of incoherencies was the only result.
Then he had another inspiration, and went rambling off into fervent confusions and incoherencies, and I had to stop him again. I thought we had talked enough, so I told him to go to the bathroom and clean it up and remove the slops this to get rid of him. He went away, seeming to understand, and got out some of my clothes and began to brush them.
Fishing for compliments when I ought to be packing your bag! Me, sure, I'm young and handsome and a regular village cut-up and " He could not go on. He sobbed again; and in muttered incoherencies they found each other. As he packed, his brain was curiously clear and swift. He'd have no more wild evenings, he realized. He admitted that he would regret them.

He found himself, all at once, on the edge of the Wheat Pit.
