Drenching the night: the delicious aroma of baking bread.Golden lamplight spending doubloons upon the pavement.The rush and rustle of the rain.Perhaps the signal light changed twice again or even three times Rome, reclining in midbacchanal, their togas scandalously disarranged, the nameless dead revealed here a smooth and creamy shoulder, here the pale curve of a breast, here a blue-veined thigh, here a hand with the fingers curled in a subtle obscene gesture, here a delicate foot and slender ankle, and here half a profile in which one open eye stared with milky lust.The least-superstitious witness to this grotesque display might be inclined to suspect that in the absence of a living observer, these unidentified vagrants and teenage before Ethan became aware of an aching in his left hand. The cramping pain had begun to spread into the muscles of his forearm.Tangled through the fiercely clenched fingers of his fist was the string of three small silvery bells clipped from the ambulance tinsel and given to him by a compassionate paramedic.
