ATDDTA (6) 182 - 184. 5 Th

[Keith]

M&D, p. 583: 'When Tom wakes next morning, only slowly recognizing  
the bed Mrs. Warford is charging him five shillings for, the first  
thing he notices is the wallpaper, pattern'd all over with identical  
small blue Flowers, upon a Ground of glowing Vermilion.'

GR, p. 25: 'the powdery wipe of Nothing's hand across wallpaper  
awhisper with peacocks spreading their fans'

fighting a duel to the death. One or other of us has to go.’ The  
wallpaper won.
