[2273] Yes of course it was there. ^{[place = margin top] X C above xxx.} [2274] Do you not remember?
[2275] We nearly hanged ourselves from it. [2278] But you
wouldn't. [2279] Do you not remember?

[2280] You dreamt it.

[2281] Is it possible that you've forgotten already?

[2282] That's the way I am. [2283] Either I forget immediately
or I never forget.

[2284] And Pozzo and Lucky, have you forgotten them too?

in the mud! [2304] And you talk to me about scenery!

[2307] I've never stirred from it!

[2308] Calm yourself, calm yourself.
