atddta:32 when rising from the bed of death

[grladams at teleport.com]

'Third Psalter Tune' / Tallis is the basis for music that Vaughn Williams
wrote. The principle of this tune is 'when rising from the bed of death'
and this has various echoes in this chapter. Pert's soul rises from her
vegetable body and has a spiritual event. Dally rises from the bed of
Crouchmas.

Ruperta attends a Vaughn Williams debut and somehow corrects her path in
life/ is uplifted, spiritually because of it, -read it again. p896 I'll
provide a side reading on it. 

Dally ascends insanely quick to successful performing artist status on all
the major stages in town, and plateus, horizontal, for TWIT Clive Crouchmas
as a kept woman. A turning point comes at a party, where the star card of
the major arcana is invoked, Lew hires her to a dangerous mission, to
unveil some secrets on Crouchmas, while also needling his own fraying
assumptions on the TWIT threat. Lots of probable Tarot breadcrumb trails
and beautiful text. p. 900

There are hats hats hats: Phrygian (somewhere a certificate or bill in a
wallet or desk drawer has got to have an allegory wearing one! in my mind
maybe only..) a Veil (Dally), Panama (Crouchmas), Fedora (Naunt), Infantry
Helmet (naked soldier model), Trilby (Irmi and Erno) no hat only Pomade
(Viktor Mulciber) 

Crouchmas stalls only a moment at news of his betrayal before meeting with
another TWIT, Spokeshave, to discuss marketing to 'rugriders' the most
dangerous weapon of all, the Q-Weapon. Expressions or visual gazes from
public art andsculpture seemed to be important to note.
