The woman behind shakes it! Sometimes I think there are a great many women behind, and sometimes only one, and she crawls around fast, and her crawling shakes it all over. THE WOMAN BEHIND SHAKES IT SOMETIMES I THINK THERE ARE A GREAT MANY WOMEN BEHIND AND SOMETIMES ONLY ONE AND SHE CRAWLS AROUND FAST AND HER CRAWLING SHAKES IT ALL OVER
 have spent hours in trying to analyze it, to find what it smelled like. It is not bad—at first, and very gentle, but quite the subtlest, most enduring odor I ever met. In this damp weather it is awful. I wake up in the night and find it hanging over me. It used to disturb me at first. I thought seriously of burning the house—to reach the smell. But now I am used to it. The only thing I can think of that it is like is the color of the paper! A yellow smell. There is a very funny mark on this wall, low down, near the mopboard. A streak that runs round the room. It goes behind every piece of furniture, except the bed, a long, straight, even smooch, as if it had been rubbed over and over. I wonder how it was done and who did it, and what they did it for. Round and round and round—round and round and round—it makes me dizzy! I really have discovered something at last. Through watching so much at night, when it changes so, I have finally found out. The front pattern does move—and no wonder! MELL SUCH A PECULIAR ODOUR TOO I'VE SPENT HOURS IN TRYING TO ANALYZE IT TO FIND WHAT IT SMELLED LIKE IT IS NOT BAD AT FIRST AND VERY GENTLE BUT QUITE THE SUBTLEST MOST ENDURING ODOR I EVER MET IN THIS DAMP WEATHER IT IS AWFUL I WAKE UP IN THE NIGHT AND FIND IT HANGING OVER ME IT USED TO DISTURB ME AT FIRST I THOUGHT SERIOUSLY OF BURNING THE HOUSE TO REACH THE SMELL BUT NOW I AM USED TO IT THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF THAT IT IS LIKE IS THE COLOR OF THE PAPER A YELLOW SMELL THERE IS A VERY FUNNY MARK ON THIS WALL LOW DOWN NEAR THE MOP BOARD A STREAK THAT RUNS ROUND THE ROOM IT GOES BEHIND EVERY PIECE OF FURNITURE EXCEPT THE BED A LONG STRAIGHT EVEN SMOUCH AS IF IT HAD BEEN RUBBED OVER AND OVER I WONDER HOW IT WAS DONE AND WHO DID IT AND WHAT THEY DID IT FOR ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND IT MAKES ME DIZZY I REALLY HAVE DISCOVERED SOMETHING AT LAST THROUGH WATCHING SO MUCH AT NIGHT WHEN IT CHANGES SO I HAVE FINALLY FOUND OUT THE FRONT PATTERN DOES MOVE AND NO WONDER
