the piano hurled across the parlor, the
groaning and straining of the building
itself, broken glass and falling plaster,
made such a roar that no one noise
could be distinguished.
We never knew when the chimney
came tearing through; we never knew
when a great marine picture weighing
one hundred and twenty-five pounds
crashed down, not eight feet away from
US: we were frequently shaken loose
from our hold on the door, and only
kept our feet by mutual help and our
