00:00:01.440 --> 00:00:07.620 align:middle line:84%
The last poem, which it
covers pages 250 to 300,

00:00:07.620 --> 00:00:09.510 align:middle line:90%
has the title "There She Was."

00:00:09.510 --> 00:00:13.380 align:middle line:84%
And you might remember that
that's the last sentence of Mrs

00:00:13.380 --> 00:00:15.990 align:middle line:90%
Dalloway.

00:00:15.990 --> 00:00:18.210 align:middle line:84%
Mrs. Dalloway's first
name's Clarissa.

00:00:18.210 --> 00:00:19.980 align:middle line:90%
Someone says, "Where's Clarissa?

00:00:19.980 --> 00:00:21.270 align:middle line:90%
There she was."

00:00:21.270 --> 00:00:24.420 align:middle line:84%
So this is called
"There She Was."

00:00:24.420 --> 00:00:25.710 align:middle line:90%
The house stood.

00:00:25.710 --> 00:00:27.480 align:middle line:90%
The cars were standing.

00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:31.170 align:middle line:84%
She was walking over to the
dog, which had to be remembered.

00:00:31.170 --> 00:00:33.000 align:middle line:90%
"Shake hands," she said.

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:35.730 align:middle line:84%
He straightened,
bent, straightened.

00:00:35.730 --> 00:00:39.900 align:middle line:84%
His manner was irreproachable,
that being with a tail.

00:00:39.900 --> 00:00:43.920 align:middle line:84%
It was extraordinary, life
was, furs being petted,

00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:49.470 align:middle line:84%
people standing upright, panic,
fear, tight skirts, ankles,

00:00:49.470 --> 00:00:50.520 align:middle line:90%
thought.

00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.640 align:middle line:84%
The creature standing,
her giving little pats,

00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:55.860 align:middle line:90%
she was enjoying standing there.

00:00:55.860 --> 00:01:00.480 align:middle line:84%
She had forgotten this feeling,
ordinary things, curtains,

00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:04.200 align:middle line:84%
biscuits, bones, a creature
raising one foreleg,

00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:05.670 align:middle line:90%
the movies.

00:01:05.670 --> 00:01:08.430 align:middle line:84%
She stood looking as
if she would solidify,

00:01:08.430 --> 00:01:13.650 align:middle line:84%
Darwin draped in black,
remembering the flora or fauna.

00:01:13.650 --> 00:01:18.420 align:middle line:84%
Of course, she would really only
be remembering a garden, trees,

00:01:18.420 --> 00:01:22.830 align:middle line:84%
wallpaper, a sea lion
barking, a doctor of misery

00:01:22.830 --> 00:01:27.030 align:middle line:84%
on the verge of difficulty,
a boy gone, death,

00:01:27.030 --> 00:01:32.400 align:middle line:84%
death without life, terror,
fear, disaster, punishment,

00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:35.160 align:middle line:90%
profound darkness, evening.

00:01:35.160 --> 00:01:40.080 align:middle line:84%
She walked to the window, sky,
clouds coming into the room.

00:01:40.080 --> 00:01:43.280 align:middle line:90%
How odd, she thought, to be.

00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:46.000 align:middle line:90%
