will break the locks, I will kick down the doors, I will run my sword
through the body of any one who bars my passage. I should like to see
who shall stop me. I have a wife, and she is Dea. I have a father, who
is Ursus. My house is a palace, and I give it to Ursus. My name is a
diadem, and I give it to Dea. Quick, directly, Dea, I am coming; yes,
you may be sure that I shall soon stride across the intervening space!"
And raising the first piece of tapestry he came to, he rushed from the
chamber impetuously.
He found himself in a corridor.

A second corridor opened out before him.
All the doors were open.
He walked on at random, from chamber to chamber, from passage to
passage, seeking an exit.
