 There was no light with him as he ran along the dark hall. He scooped 1 up the satchel 2, was out of the house and racing 3 down the thirty-six chapel 4 steps to the road, just running, cancelling the thought of exhaustion 5 from his body. There was out of the house and racing down the thirty-six chapel steps to the road, just running,Was it a sapper or was it a civilian 6?The sappers kept to themselves for the most part. They never became familiar with each other.When they talked they passed only information along, new devices, habits of the enemy. He would step into the town hall, where they were billeted, and his eyes would take in the three faces and be aware of the absence of the fourth. Or there would be four of them and in a field somewhere would be the body of an old man or a girl. The four of them in the villa 7 had celebrated 8 in this evening’s brief dance in the English patient’s room their own simple adventuresHana her sleep, Caravaggio his “finding” of the gramophone, and Kip a difficult defusing, though he had almost forgotten such a moment already. He was someone who felt uncomfortable in celebrations, in victories. Just fifty yards away, there had been no representation of them in the world, no sound or sight of them from the valley’s eye as Hana’s and Caravaggio’s shadows glided 9 across the walls and Kip sat comfortably encased in the alcove 10 and the English patient sipped 11 his wine.
