~~[10 seconds]~~ unintelligible, 10 seconds, ceases as house lights
up.

Segment 3

[0037] Note 1
Movement: this consists of simple sideways raising of
hidden arms clear of sides and their falling back with if
possible just audible thud of hands on thighs. It lessens
with each recurrence till scarcely perceptible at third.
There is just enough pause to contain it as MOUTH recovers
from vehement refusal to relinquish third person.

Segment 4

[0038] Note 2
"Any": pronounce "anny".^{(for example)}
^{baby pronounce babby}
^{either pronounce eether}
