We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

AIR RAID Sick Woman. — A day is longer. ... I was very young! Everyone coming and looking, and isn’t she young. . . . You sit in the dark and rest: you don’t say anything. . . . Announcer. — Listen! Motor throbbing! Probably one of their own. No one watching it anyway. Sick Woman. — The water cress between the crusts of water. . . . The wild iris in the water meadows : The roses like the closing of desire. . . . And rest : you don’t say anything. . . . Announcer. — There he is: we’ve got him: One of the home ships: He’s combing the hills in circles : Working heavily . . . laboring . . . Leveling now. He’s high enough. . . . Spark in the sky when he hangs and the Sun angles the fuselage: Gone when the sunlight loses him: Sound coming down out of nowhere: Eddying: floating down. No one noticing anyway: No one looking or listening: Only that sleepers waken. . . . Young Man. — {Close, low) O are you there? Are you still there? I dreamed you had gone. Never go! Girl. — {Close, low) Say we’re happy. Tell me that we’re happy. Young Man. — Stay as you are: do not move: Do not ever move: stay there: Stay with this sunlight on y'our shoulders. Announcer. — Still circling and wheeling, He’s working the air as a hawk would . . . Stalking with height for cover: Hovering lost in sight. We see him and lose him and see him. Girl. — Tell me we’re happy. No, but say we are. How can I know we are unless you tell me ? 533
