(* THE IDEA of her living with someone, BARBED AS A FISH HOOK, TWISTED IN HIS MIND.*)
[[Text: source, p.261]]
{NB: mixing with IDEAS AS PHYSICAL OBJECTS}
Never previously had he had such thoughts. Now {* THEY flocked to
him like a crowd of strange birds, BUILT THEMSELVES NESTS IN HIS BRAIN,
AND THERE FLUTTERED ABOUT RESTLESSLY.*) Now he heard all the [p.220:]
bewildering clamour of the big wide world.

But this evening the first sips [of white wine] were delicious -- (* a high
green note like a bell AT THE FRONT OF MY MIND.*)

Jane (* sought IN THE RECESSES OF HER CONSCIOUSNESS the remorse *..)
that she knew ought to be lying in wait -- that poor honest shopkeeper,
struggling to make a living! But (..* it was as if ALL RECESSES HAD
FLATTENED OUT for the moment, into a balmy infinite present *..) amid
the sunshine and the gusts and swirls of wind as the MGC [sports car]
swerved around bends. (..* HER CONSCIOUSNESS WAS FILLED TO THE BRIM WITH

THE EDGES OF MY THOUGHTS.*)

{Mixed with IDEAS AS PERSONS or other ANIMATE BEINGS}
For (* IN A SMALL POCKET OF MY MIND *) a collection of motley incidents
-- no, not so much as that -- a collection of motley observations was
forming.
[[Text: source, p.264]]
[NP] My heart jolts as (* an impossible idea begins to TAKE SHAPE IN MY
MIND. I TRY TO PUSH IT DOWN but it won't go away; it advances from the
shadows slowly, gradually, like a figure emerging from a dark cave.*)

Thinking is impossible. I try (* TO POINT A SPOTLIGHT AT MY BRAIN AND FIND IT EMPTY.*)

[The teenage schoolgirls] [s]louched and fidgeted in their chairs,
batted looks, eyebrow-lifts, whispers back and forth. They thought we
[the detectives] were done with them, (* HAD DUMPED US OUT OF THEIR
MINDS.}
[[Text: source, p.142]]
{NB The subject of "had dumped" is "They" the girls, not "we" the detectives.
Also: note use of metonymy of OBJECT FOR IDEA OF IT (in using "us" to refer to
a mental representation of the detectives).}
(* She hears all the voices from when she was little, soothing, strengthening.
Don't be scared, not of monsters, not of witches, not of big dogs.
And now, snapping loud from every
direction: Be scared, you have to be scared, ordering like this is
your one absolute duty. Be scared you're fat, ... Be scared of strangers. ... Be scared you won't do well
enough in your examinations, ... Be scared terrified petrified that
everything you are is every kind of wrong. Good girl.*)
At the same time, (* IN A COOL UNTOUCHED PART OF HER MIND, she sees the moon. She feels the shimmer of what it might look like in their own private midnight.*)

{First paragraph uses IDEAS AS INTERNAL UTTERANCES.
Second switches immediately to a mix of COGNIZING AS SEEING and MIND AS PHYSICAL SPACE.}
The long day had (* MY MIND MOVING LIKE PORRIDGE, BITS OF THOUGHT
TAKING FOREVER TO FIND EACH OTHER.*) The corrdidor stretching away in
front of us looked unreal, tiles too red, lines too long, something we'd
never be able to stop seeing.

OBJECT - MISCELLANEOUS (as well as IDEAS AS PHYSICAL OBJECTS).}
She dabs her own tears away and takes a deep breath, ready to finally
(* grasp the thought that has been trying to whisper ITS WAY IN FROM THE
VERY EDGES OF HER CONSCIOUSNESS.*..) She has been only half-concentrating
on Emily, (..* the thought growing until it takes up all the space in her
head.*)

Of course, she was devastated [on hearing that her husband Alex had
slept with her best friend Lydia]. But (* SHE FLOATED ABOVE THAT IN HER
MIND, observing it wryly.*)

Dovid drew breath to speak, but (* A SMOKY YELLOW THOUGHT BEGAN TO CURL AT

(* My memories of them [two childood friends] had (* RUBBED THIN WITH
OVERUSE, WORN TO FRAIL COLOUR TRANSPARENCIES FLICKERING ON THE WALLS OF
MY MIND:*..) Jamie scrambling intent and surefooted up to a high
branch, Peter's laugh arcing out of the _trompe-l'oeil_ dazzle of green
ahead. Through some slow sea-change (..* they had become children OUT OF
A HAUNTING STORYBOOK, bright myths from a lost civilisation;*) it was
hard to believe they had once been real and my friends.

I went for long walks ... wandering through the city for hours in

Behind the newspaper (* Julian WAS WITHDRAWING INTO THE INNER COMPARTMENT
OF HIS MIND WHERE HE SPENT MOST OF HIS TIME. THIS WAS A KIND OF MENTAL
BUBBLE IN WHICH HE ESTABLISHED HIMSELF when he could not bear to be
A PART OF WHAT WAS GOING ON AROUND HIM. FROM IT HE COULD SEE OUT and
judge but in it he was SAFE FROM ANY KIND OF PENETRATION FROM
WITHOUT. IT WAS THE ONLY PLACE WHERE HE FELT FREE of the general idiocy
of his fellows. His mother HAD NEVER ENTERED IT BUT FROM IT HE COULD
SEE HER WITH ABSOLUTE CLARITY.*)
[[Text:

{Several interesting complications:
(1) The compartment/bubble is not only a subregion of the mind-space but
is also felt as a subregion of real physical space.
(2) Provisionally, there is mixing with MIND PARTS AS PERSONS [OR OTHER
ANIMATE BEINGS], in that what's in the bubble is really his conscious
self, viewed as a person in a compartment. However, there is no other
mind-part viewed as a person, so perhaps the mixing is better analysed
as being with MIND AS ANIMATE BEING [OR LIVING BODY], the animate being in this case being a
person.
(3) The visual aspect is probably partly metaphorical - Julian can "see"
his mother and other aspects of his environment from within the bubble
in the sense of understanding them, not (or not just) literally seeing them.

"Yes, I remember now," said Sorrel distantly, as if busy trying to
(* coax the whole memory OUT OF A DARK AND COBWEBBY CORNER OF HER MIND.*)

I said all these things [to my son Charlie] - ... - but (* only a tiny
part of me was there with my son. MY BRAIN WAS LIKE A WELL-OCCUPIED
HOUSEHOLD, ACTIVITY TAKING PLACE SIMULTANEOUSLY IN EACH OF ITS MANY
ROOMS.*)

{First sentence tentatively categorized as based on MIND PARTS AS
PERSONS. See entry in the page for that metaphorical view.}
My sudden pulse of terror that passed so quickly brought his name with
it -- his false name. (* THE KNOWLEDGE IS THERE, LIKE SOMETHING DARK
SWELLING INSIDE ME. I can feel the answer tapping at the back of my
brain, trying to get in.*)

She had had no thought since she grew up for anybody but her
father. There was (* NO ROOM FOR ANY OTHER THOUGHT, SO COMPLETELY DID HE
FILL HER HEART.*)
How dreadful thoughts could be, Lucy said to herself, overcome that such
a one at such a moment should (* THRUST ITSELF INTO HER MIND.*)
She hung on to the gate while (* HER THOUGHTS FLEW ABOUT IN CONFUSION
WITHIN HER.*)
Then (* THE THOUGHT CREPT INTO HER MIND *) that it was she who had done
this, ...
(* IT WENT ROUND AND ROUND IN HER HEAD *) as a thing she was
unable, by herself, to understand.
before (* IT SLOWLY OOZED INTO AND PERVADED HIS MIND THAT *) there was
his little girl
Whenever (* HER THOUGHTS REACHED THAT HOUSE THEY GAVE A LITTLE JUMP AND
TRIED TO SLINK AWAY.*..) ...[several sentences]... (..* HER THOUGHTS
SLUNK AWAY; but not before one of them had sent a curdling whisper
through her mind, `_The tea would taste of blood._'*)
(* HER MIND WAS A CHALICE FILLED ONLY WITH LOVE, AND SO CLEAR AND BRIGHT
WAS THE LOVE THAT EVEN AT THE BOTTOM, WHEN SHE STIRRED IT UP TO LOOK,
THERE WASN'T A TRACE OF SEDIMENT.*..) [NP] But marriage -- or was it
sleeplessness? -- completely changed this, and (..* THERE WERE PERFECT
CROWDS OF THOUGHTS IN HER MIND *) that she was thoroughly ashamed of.
She soon learned that (* A DOUBT IN HER MIND WAS BETTER KEPT THERE. IF
SHE BROUGHT IT OUT TO AIR IT *) and dispel it by talking it over with
him, ...
(* AT THE BACK OF HER MIND,*..) quite uncontrollable, quite
unauthorised, (..* RAN BENEATH THESE OTHER THOUGHTS this thought: `I am
certainly abject.' *)
... (* LIKE A FLAME THE THOUGHT WAS LEAPING IN HER BRAIN, `Now what
shall I do if when I look into this [a mirror] I don't see myself but
Vera? It's _accustomed_ to Vera ... [dots in original]' *)
... [H]e felt so exactly as he used to that he wouldn't have remembered
Lucy at all if it hadn't been for (* THAT LAYER OF INDIGNATION AT THE
BOTTOM OF HIS MIND.*..) ... [H]e was conscious of a sense of hard usage,
and (..* SEARCHING FOR ITS CAUSE REMEMBERED Lucy.*)
(* Why should a thing like that (* [a rhyming couplet] RISE NOW TO THE
SURFACE OF HER MIND AND FLOAT ROUND ON IT, while all the noble verse she
had read and enjoyed, ... , was NOWHERE TO BE FOUND, not a shred of it,
IN ANY CORNER OF HER BRAIN?*) [NP] What a brain, thought Miss
Entwhistle, disgusted, ..., her eyes shut; what a contemptible, anaemic
brain, deserting her like this, only able to (* THROW UP TO THE SURFACE
when stirred, OUT OF ALL THE STORE of splendid stuff put so assiduously
into it during years and years of life, couplets.*) *) ... (* A last
couplet FLOATED THROUGH HER BRAIN *) -- her brain seemed to clutch at
it[.] (* Now where did that (* COME FROM?*) she ASKED HERSELF
distractedly,*)
Random, senseless (* thoughts FLITTED AROUND IN HIS HEAD.*..) ... Like
a man who has lost his sense of direction, Tsukuru's thoughts (..*
ENDLESSLY CIRCLED THE SAME PLACE.*) By the time he became aware of what
his mind was doing, (* he found himself BACK WHERE HE'D STARTED.*) Finally,
his thinking process (* got stuck, as if the folds of his brain were a
broken screw.*)
Did that really happen? No, that's impossible. (* It all took place IN
THE DARK INTERIOR OF MY MIND.*..) No matter how you look at it. (..* So
where did all that semen gush out to? Did it all vanish, too, IN THE
INNER RECESSES OF MY MIND?*)
(* He placed his doubt INSIDE A DRAWER IN HIS MIND LABELED `Pending'
*..) and postponed any further consideration. (..* HE HAD MANY SUCH
DRAWERS INSIDE HIM, with numerous doubts and questions tucked away.*)
Finally, (* as if lured in by the melody [of some music playing] *..),
images flashed behind his eyelids, one after the next, appearing, then
disappearing. A series of images without concrete form or meaning, (..*
rising up from THE DARK MARGINS OF CONSCIOUSNESS, soundlessly crossing
INTO THE VISIBLE REALM, only to be sucked back into THE MARGINS on the
other side and vanish once again. Like the mysterious outline of
microorganisms swimming (* ACROSS THE CIRCULAR FIELD OF VISION OF A
MICROSCOPE.*)
(* THOUGHTS, unoccasioned and FAINT, DRIFTED VAGUELY INTO HIS MIND AND
OUT.*..) He half remembered the comforts of his home in Boston; but that
seemed unreal and far away, and (..* OF THOSE THOUGHTS THERE REMAINED IN HIS
MIND ONLY THIN GHOSTS OF REMEMBERED SENSATION *) -- the feel of a feather
bed at night, [etc.].
And was it not (but here (* THE THOUGHT FLOATED ONLY IN THE REMOTER REGIONS
OF THE DEAN'S BRAIN *) )---was it not the capacity for energetic action that
was called in question when ...
"... (* I shut down and just drift away into a world of my own,*)" he
says. "(* I keep things IN MY HEAD *) and appear relaxed, but (* I
dissociate myself from things. I CAN GO OFF INTO A ROOM OF MY OWN IN MY
HEAD *) and not hear a thing anyone is saying."
there's (* SOMETHING TUGGING AWAY AT THE BACK OF MY MIND that *) ...
Of all the ugly things I have to tell, (* STORED UP ripe and rotting
IN MY MEMORY,*) being expelled from that school is in a way the most
shameful.
... but when I could read what she had written, (* CREEP AND CRAWL AND
SNUGGLE INSIDE HER BRAIN,*..) ... You who've never read the secret words
of the familiar, domesticated people you love, you who've never (..*
SNUGGLED INTO THEIR BRAINS and LOOKED OUT THROUGH THEIR EYES,*..) how
can you understand what I felt? It's as if (..* I HAD OPENED A DOOR *)
and saw Nada not as she wanted to seem to us, but Nada as she really
was, a stranger, a person Father and I did not know and had no
connection with.
... this man who spent his best hours alone, (* TRAFFICKING IN THE
BIZARRE MERCHANDISE THAT HE SMUGGLED THROUGH FROM THE DARKER PLACES OF
HIS OWN MIND.*)
Frédéric watched Madame Arnoux as he listened to these words. (* they
sank into his mind like metals INTO A FURNACE, adding to his passion and
FILLING HIM WITH LOVE.*)
... he felt (* something inexhaustible welling up FROM THE DEPTHS OF
HIS BEING, a surge of tenderness *) which made him giddy, like the motion
of the waves under his eyes.
The quiet of this spacious room ... (* FILLED HIM at first with a sense
*) of intellectual well-being.
The news of Arnoux's departure had (* FILLED HIM with joy.*)
But gradually (* his hopes and memories, Nogent, the rue de Choiseul,
Madame Arnoux, his mother, all merged together IN HIS MIND.*)
[NP] But now, lying in mild post-coital exhaustion, (* THERE CAME AGAIN THE
INRUSH OF ANXIETY. FEARS, HOPES, PLANS JOSTLED IN HIS MIND LIKE LOTTERY
BALLS.*) He knew what Miranda wanted: marriage, a home of her own, and
children.
He closed his eyes. (* A dream remained, TRAILING FAINT TATTERS OF
MEMORY, LIKE SOILED RAGS ACROSS HIS MIND, HALF-DISSOLVING but still
clear enough *) to leave (* a legacy of unease.*)
At night, with your ear jammed to the radio [listening to cricket game],
(* DARK FORCES [standing for cricketers] PROWL THE PERIMETERS OF YOUR
MIND,*..) the [cricket] catches that they take the very proof that (..*
EVIL reigns. *..) But in the daylight they are just men, running hard.
[NP] I like to think it's a sign of my maturity that I have now factored
in, as they say, real as opposed to (..* PHANTOM *) cricket.
(* THE THOUGHT *) of his wife, of his boy Ved, of their neat new house in
Government Quarters (* CAME INTO HIS MIND WITH THE SUDDENESS OF A CLANGING BELL.
METHODICALLY HE PUSHED THE THOUGHT DOWN AGAIN. *)
I forced myself not to think about him, (* AS IF I COULD WALK INTO A
DIFFERENT ROOM IN MY MIND AND LOCK HIM OUT.*)
... (* YOUR MIND HAS INTERIOR WALLS that allow you to PARTITION different times
in which to stop or flow, to concentrate alternately on PARALLEL
CHANNELS.*)
These sayings were prepared (* IN THE INNER LABORATORY OF HIS MIND *) in a
(* portable *) form as if intentionally, so that insignificant society people
might (* carry *) them from drawing-room to drawing-room.
The whole of my childhood (* RUSHED THROUGH MY HEAD LIKE AN ELECTRIC
TRAIN *)
I tried to sleep, but (* THE PAIN IN MY SHOULDERS HAD MOVED TO THE
FOREGROUND OF MY MIND.*)
(* Her words triggered an elusive memory.*) Something someone had said
to me in the last few weeks about Xerxes and insurance. I frowned,
trying to (* DRAG IT TO THE SURFACE, but I couldn't get hold of it. *)
We went at it like a couple of six-year-olds, (* BOTH VENTING OUR FURY *)
over the threats and humiliations of the past few weeks.
(* THE ELUSIVE MEMORY I'D BEEN TRYING TO FORCE SINCE SATURDAY SWAM
ACROSS THE SURFACE OF MY MIND AGAIN AND DISAPPEARED.*..) [NP] "What?"
Murray demanded suspiciously. [NP] "Nothing. I thought I remembered
something but (..* I can't quite get it."*)
(* HOPING THAT IF I KEPT THE FRONT OF MY MIND OCCUPIED, THE BACK WOULD
BEGIN TO SPROUT IDEAS.*)
(* AS I LAY STILL, LETTING IMAGES FLOW THROUGH MY MIND,*)
(* ONCE I'D LET THAT LITTLE PIECE OF SELF-KNOWLEDGE FLOAT TO THE TOP OF
MY MIND, a terrible rage began to seize hold of me.*)
I had slept badly, (* WITH DREAMS THAT HOVERED NEAR THE FRONTIER OF
NIGHTMARE BUT DID NOT ACTUALLY CROSS IT.*)
Vanessa had unsettled me, (* BREACHED THE DEFENCES I HAD BUILT UP SO
LABORIOUSLY. (AND I HAD BEEN ALL TOO WILLING TO HAVE THEM BREACHED.) *)
(* IT WAS THEN THAT THE IDEA SLITHERED LIKE A SNAKE INTO MY MIND,
SHOWING ITSELF OPENLY FOR THE FIRST TIME*): if anyone was going to marry
Vanessa Forde, why shouldn't it be me?
(* I PUSHED ASIDE THE MEMORY.*)
(* IN SOME REMOTE PART OF MY MIND I KNEW *) I should think of a
way to take the initiative with Humboldt, ...
The whole prospect of action seemed so impossible that just thinking
about it made my eyelids feel leaden, (* MY BRAIN FOGGED OVER.*)
(*I FELT AS THOUGH MY MIND WERE ENCASED IN LEAD SHIELDING---PROTECTIVE
COVERING TO KEEP ANY IDEAS FROM ENTERING. THE RESIDUE OF MY FEAR.*)
But now that my brain was so stressed out, the injury was throbbing in
a dull way, (* THE POUNDING DRUM IN THE JUNGLE OF MY MIND.*)
(* ATTICS. ALWAYS THE PLACES WHERE THE SECRETS ARE KEPT, LIKE THE DARK
BITS OF THE MIND. EXCEPT THE CONTENTS OF THIS PARTICULAR ATTIC WOULD
SURPRISE NO ONE,*) she thought scornfully.
(* HE REACHED INTO THE BACK OF HIS MIND. PRYING FINGERTIPS JUST TOUCHING A TINY
NEGLECTED NUGGET OF INFORMATION. And suddenly he had it. It had been given to
him when his attention had been concentrated on the perfect case *) and he had
contrived for that reason to ignore it. *)
you don't study because you are told to, (* BUT THAT YOU HAVE INTERESTS WHICH
GENERATE FROM INSIDE YOU *)
Be prepared to look your interviewer in the eye and stand up for your
viewpoint without being aggressive or ( * NARROW-MINDED *).
(* FIRMLY HE PUSHED THE IMPULSE TO THE BACK OF HIS MIND *)
(* THE THOUGHT *) of his wife, of his boy Ved, of their neat new house in
Government Quarters (* CAME INTO HIS MIND WITH THE SUDDENESS OF A CLANGING BELL.
METHODICALLY HE PUSHED THE THOUGHT DOWN AGAIN. *)
Inspector Ghote listened to the tirade (* WITH LITTLE GUSHES OF HOT ANGER
SHOOTING OUT INSIDE HIM TILL HE FELT ON THE POINT OF BURSTING. *)
The third he did catch, by now (* FUMING WITH BAD TEMPER. *)
(* HE GROPED ROUND IN THE HEAVY STICKINESS OF HIS MIND FOR A CLUE. *)
(* AN IDEA HOVERED FOR A MOMENT NEAR THE EDGE OF HIS MIND, AND WITHOUT HAVING
TIME TO WEIGH ITS MERITS HE SEIZED ON IT. *)
(* THERE WAS SOMETHING ELSE TEASING AWAY AT THE BACK OF HIS MIND,*) something else
which he had to deal with
(* HE WENT OVER IN HIS MIND EVERYTHING HE HAD LEARNT ABOUT IT, AND AT THE END OF
IT HE FOUND HIMSELF BACK WHERE HE HAD BEGUN. *)
(* A WILD IDEA BEGAN TO GROW, LIKE THE RAIN-RESTORED PLANTS, IN THE INSPECTOR'S
BRAIN. *)
(* THE THOUGHTS SWAM IN THE INSPECTOR'S HEAD *) like the debris twisting and
whirling in the roaring runnels of the house. (* AND THE LAST PIECE FELL INTO
PLACE. *)

I may have made this up, but (* I HAVE IT IN MY MIND *) that ...
... (* REACHING BACK INTO MY MEMORY *) ...
(* I DISMISSED [the apartment address] FROM MY MIND, AND NOW IT'S GONE.*)
This time, (* THE IMAGE THAT FLOATED INTO HER MIND AND FASTENED THERE *) was of
herself and Susan, axed to pieces, in the bathroom, in the kitchen.
Even while (* ROLLING THESE DESIRES THROUGH HER MIND,*) she recognized them as her habitual response to trouble.
(* SHE CARRIED A LITTLE CLOUD OF THOUGHT IN HER HEAD *) ...
(* THE IMPOSSIBILITY *..) of turning the corner [of the ledge on the
building-side] immobilized her, (..* EXPANDED IN HER MIND LIKE A BALLOON,
PUSHING EVERY OTHER MORE REASONABLE THOUGHT AWAY.*)[NP]
The fears she had had of Susan earlier in the week, the glimpse she had
seemed to see of Susan in her apartment, were (* HER KNOWLEDGE OF THE MURDER
RISING TO THE SURFACE,*) ...
After the love-making (* TAMAR'S STATE OF MIND, WHICH HAD BEEN CLEAR AND
SINGLE, EVEN A KIND OF PEACE OF MIND, BECAME A DARK BATTLEFIELD OF INCOMPATIBLE
EMOTIONS.*)
It was always like this---(* PULLING HIS FACE BACK INTO HER MIND; IT
DISAPPEARED SO EASILY SOMETIMES. OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND *)...
(* THE [memory of the] RAPE KEPT CLAWING AT HER, SCREAMING IN THE
DEEPEST RECESSES OF HER PSYCHE. SHE'D SEEN IT FOLLOWING HER, TRACKING HER
THROUGH THE DAYS.*)
She could still feel Anthony inside her [after their sexual intercourse], but
(* IT WAS Belinda's FACE THAT CROWDED INTO HER MIND, PUSHING EVERYTHING ELSE
OUT.*)
Sara read the letter over, (* knew that it would (* BE FILED IN
ONE OF THE BOTTOM DRAWERS OF HER PSYCHE---AND HOPEFULLY IN God's TOP DRAWER
*)...
... and (* SEARCHED HER MIND *) for whatever Cliffs Notes might be jotted
there---just in case.
She was too (* confused *) to judge anything. If he'd done nothing
else, he'd at least (* INVADED HER THOUGHTS AND TOSSED THEM AROUND UNTIL THERE
WAS ONLY CHAOS IN HER HEAD.*)
These (* thoughts occurred *) to Belinda as she sat in the Holiday Inn
ballroom, but not for the first time. (* Philippe (* HAD GOTTEN IN THERE
*)---that much she knew.*..) (..* SHE KEPT BUMPING INTO HIM IN HER MIND; AT
EVERY TURN OF HER THOUGHTS SHE SAW HIM STANDING THERE, ARMS OUTSTRETCHED,
BECKONING HER.*)
She tried to (* PUT ROADBLOCKS UP ALONG HER IMAGINATION'S MORE MORBID
DETOURS.*)
She paced around her dark living room for nearly an hour, trying to (* FORCE
HIM AWAY, TO WILL HIM OUT OF HER MIND.*) ... She'd gotten it down to a
formula---(* SENDING A MAN DOWN A LONG ROAD IN HER MIND, OVER SOME HILLS, INTO
THE NEXT COUNTY,*) ... But with Anthony, she couldn't remember the formula. (*
EVERY WAY SHE TURNED, HE WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER.*)
... were (* QUESTIONS OCCUPYING MY MIND SO BUSILY, THAT ONE MIGHT HAVE SUPPOSED
THERE COULD BE NO MORE ROOM IN IT *) for any other theme. Even when I thought
of Estella ... --- even then (* I WAS PURSUING, HERE, THERE AND EVERYWHERE, THE
CAUTION *) Don't go home.
... and its disappointments, dangers, disgraces, consequences of all kinds, (*
RUSHED IN IN SUCH A MULTITUDE *) that I was borne down by them and had to
struggle for every breath I drew.
[Picasso] wants you to (* REMEMBER SOMEWHERE IN YOUR MIND *) that [the shapes
have been used as breasts in other pictures].
A (* FLOOD OF WILD SURMISES *) as to the part Commander Haydock had played in
Tommy's disappearance (* SURGED THROUGH TUPPENCE'S BRAIN,*) but she (* THRUST THEM
RESOLUTELY ASIDE.*) This was a moment for (* keeping all her wits about her.*)
....[some paragraphs of Tommy's thoughts in third-person implicit IDEAS AS
INTERNAL UTTERANCES]...
(* ALL THIS PASSED THROUGH TOMMY'S MIND IN A FEW SECONDS.*)
The Commander's voice had ceased. He appeared suddenly in the doorway. And
(* WITH A CLICK, SEVERAL THINGS FELL INTO PLACE IN TOMMY'S BRAIN.*)
Had he been blind up to now? .....
`I don't quite know. When you said that (* SOMETHING TWANGED IN MY BRAIN,*) and
now it's gone again!'
A (* FAINT MEMORY FLICKERED THROUGH Tuppence's MIND.*) A shop filled with
glass, through which it was difficult to move, a rich persuasive voice, a
compelling massive woman. Yes, surely, she had been into that shop.
For the next few weeks, (* I OPENED MYSELF TO THE UNIVERSE.*) If I saw a
handsome man, I sat for ten seconds and imagined him kissing my neck.
`Men have had a strategy for eons, (* KEEPING THE BACK OF THEIR MIND
ALWAYS ON SEX,*)' Dr. Zilbergeld explained.
(* IN THE BACK OF MY MIND, a question still burned: How come it's so easy for
men to stay aroused?*)
It was at that moment, as Tryfan gazed on their love together, and perhaps (*
WITH THEIR WORDS DURING THEIR LONG CONVERSATIONS ABOUT the Stillstone STILL IN
HIS MIND, that the FIRST DEFINITE MEMORIES of the Midsummer Night when he had
got lost BEGAN TO STIR IN HIS MIND.*) [NP] ... as (* THOSE MEMORIES BECAME
CLEARER AND HE SAW AGAIN, IN HIS MIND, THE GLIMMER OF the Stillstone.*)
(* THE FACT THAT SHE WAS WITH LITTER MADE HIM ANGRY AND TURNED AND TWISTED IN
HIS MIND AND PUT A BARRIER OF SUSPICION AND JEALOUSY BEFORE HIS EYES.*)
In his nightmares he did, when he remembered the power in the mole who had
faced him contemptuously somewhere among these slate tips. He knew where. (*
SLOWLY HE ADMITTED THE MEMORY TO HIS MIND *) and (* saw again the great mole *) ...
(* THE IMAGES she had invoked of age, and of quest, and of Mandrake, to whom
she spoke as if he were still alive, MELDED IN HIS MIND AND SOARED TO THE
Stones of Siabod *) where he knew he must go.
(* SOME THINGS STICK IN THE MIND.*)
I may have (* PLANTED THAT IDEA IN MARK'S HEAD.*)
... (* THE CRITICAL ISSUE IN THEIR MINDS WAS *) ...[description of issue]
(* IN THE MINDS OF THE YOUNG, his leadership against Rune and Mandrake was more
legend than contemporary history,*) and though many a youngster crouched by the
Stone and gazed towards the west just as Bracken was said to have done, few
could really believe he still existed, or could now come back.
... (* AN IDEA CAME TO HIM, A SUGGESTION, A POSSIBILITY, THAT GREW IN HIS MIND ONLY
SLOWLY AS LIGHT GROWS AT DAWN ON A WINTER'S MORNING.*..) He broke the silence
around him with it, speaking it out almost (..* BEFORE THE THOUGHT WAS CLEARLY
INTO HIS MIND:*) ...
(* ISN'T THERE IN YOU SOMEWHERE A FEELING THAT *) ...
(* HE HAD A DOZEN THINGS IN HIS MIND TO SAY, BUT THEY ALL FELL AWAY BEFORE HER
STILL GAZE *) ...
Bracken found that Stonecrop, on the other hand, had a very hard and
powerful spirit, though one that was inflexible and therefore, in Medlar's
terms, fairly easy to get round. (* IN HIS OWN MIND, Bracken came to
understand this by thinking of Stonecrop as a series of burrows and tunnels,
not unlike the Barrow Vale, where, if a mole kept his head and spirit firm, he
would eventually find a way through.*)
They talked about a thousand things, but (* WHAT Rose MOST PUT INTO REBECCA'S
MIND WERE SEEDS OF THOUGHT TO GROW RATHER THAN FINISHED PLANTS TO FADE.*)
He turned his back to it and snouted out again, seeing if he could feel any
other pulls. Well, of course, there was Uffington; he could feel that. Deep and
distant but always strong. He crouched silent and still, letting his mind
wander out of his body and around the horizon in the circle.*) It was hard not
to be continually pulled by Duncton and Uffington, the two Stone pulls with
which he was familiar, (* BUT SLOWLY HE FORGOT THEM, PUTTING THEM IN THE
BACKGROUND OF HIS BODY AND MIND AND SEEING WHAT ELSE HE COULD FEEL.*)
(* FROM THE LIGHT-FILLED RECESSES OF HIS SOUL, WHERE THE CHERISHED THINGS OF
THE HEART LIE STILL AND WAITING, THERE CAME A MEMORY OF THE Stone.*)
With each word that Rune now spoke (* A PICTURE OF HIS [Mandrake's] REBECCA,
HIS DAUGHTER REBECCA, HIS UNTOUCHED CHILD, HARDENED ON THE EDGE OF HIS MIND
WHERE NOMOLE [sic] AT FIRST LIKES TO LOOK, BUT TO WHICH A JEALOUS MOLE MAY
EASILY BE DRAWN.*)
But Hulver himself didn't know what he was going to say,
since (* IT ALL CAME INTO HIS MIND AND OUT AS WORDS *) without him
seeming to have too much to do with it.
The boys sat silent for a moment with their eyes shut. Jennifer couldn't
wish herself. There were too many (* PRIORITIES CLASHING IN HER HEAD, TOO
MANY PEOPLE CLAMOURING *) for good fortune ...
(* ALL THE THINGS SHE HAD ACHED TO SAY WERE DAMMED UP TIGHT INSIDE HER.*)
He had hardly thought at all whilst he was drawing --- needed all his
concentration to get it right. But (* THE THOUGHTS HAD BEEN JAMMING UP INSIDE
HIS HEAD, READY TO FLOOD OVER *) when he laid his chalks and paper down.
It was difficult to (* concentrate.*) Someone had turned the dials up and the
whole room was writhing with (* CLOUDS OF STEAM, SWIRLING IN HIS EYES, HIS
MIND.*)
Meanwhile, (* HE WOULD LOCK LYN AWAY WITH THE NOTEBOOKS *) and
get down to a little planning on the book itself.
Every time he tried, (* his mind glazed over *) or

For three kindly years he had let this landscape dwindle, (* SHUT OUT ALL THE
MEMORIES,*) built new ones with his wife.
... and (* THERE FLOWED INTO HIM, AS INTO A CLEAR VESSEL, A SUDDEN SENSE OF *)
all the agony and helpless suffering of created things.
Gerard allowed himself to be moved by this and (* STOWED IT AWAY IN
HIS MIND FOR LATER INSPECTION.*)
... the script somehow, like a sinister hieroglyph revealed by torchlight in a
tomb, (* TOOK HIM *..) back many more years, to Oxford, (..* TO SOMETHING,
SOME EVENT, SOME FEELING, TOO DEEP NOW TO BE UNCOVERED, FAR AWAY IN THE DARK
DEPTHS OF HIS MIND, ... Even as GERARD WAS RETURNED TO HIS PRESENT SELF *) he
felt a sick terror at the sight, ...
It was the writing on the envelope which, (* DARTING ITS MESSAGE INTO HIS
UNCONSCIOUS MIND,*) had produced this strange shock,
He had not intended to speak to Rose of a house, though
(* THE IDEA HAD BEEN FOR A SHORT TIME IN HIS HEAD.*)
(* WHAT WAS NOW SEEPING INTO HER TROUBLED CONSCIOUSNESS LIKE A DARK DYE WAS THE
THOUGHT THAT *) Crimond could not thus belong to the past.
He also, in the presence of these images, asked himself, (* RETRIEVING IT NOW
FROM THE DEPTHS OF MEMORY,*) whether ...
(* VAST TRACTS OF HIS SOUL NO LONGER EXISTED, HIS SOUL WAS DEVASTATED AND LAID

In fact, in spite of his self-laceration, a ritual in which
he indulged at intervals, the priest (* FELT, IN A YET DEEPER DEEP SELF, A

Where one could see no way to mend matters, (* ONE MUST JUST KEEP

She had been, with him, self-absorbed, looking after herself, learning a
religious mythology (* AS SHE DISCOVERED HITHERTO UNKNOWN REGIONS OF HER OWN
SOUL.*)
The priest had talked much to her about prayer, how it was simply a quietness,
an attentive waiting, (* A SPACE MADE FOR THE PRESENCE OF GOD. Tamar felt that

Here however (* ROSE'S DEEP BASE OF SANITY *) eventually prevailed, ...
(* HOWEVER ALL THESE TEMPTING AND BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS, THESE DEEP TENDER

necessity of an absolute departure; ...
Then (* A TERRIBLE THOUGHT APPEARED IN GULLIVER'S MIND. He ought to give this

(* THIS DETAIL,*..) utterly revolting to Duncan, had with the years (..*

GIVING IT MORE power and FORM BY PUTTING IT INTO JEAN'S MIND.*)
(* THE CONDENSED MASS OF ALL HER RECENT THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS WAS
EXPLODING INSIDE HER HEAD.*) She was beyond logic and contradictory things
could be true.
(* THE EXCITEMENTS, PLEASANT, UNPLEASANT, INTERESTING, STIRRED UP IN
GERARD'S MIND BY CRIMOND'S ANTICS, WERE CURIOUSLY MIXING WITH HIS THOUGHTS, OR
MORE EVIDENTLY HIS FEELINGS, ABOUT JENKIN.*)
Jean allowed all sorts of (* ORDINARY HAPPY THOUGHTS,*..) which she had
carefully and dutifully inhibited, (..* TO COME OUT OF THEIR SECLUSION AND

(* THIS POSSIBILITY OF A DAMAGING BREACH WAS INSTANTLY TRANSFORMED IN HIS MIND

Gunnar was being objective again. `This much I suppose I learnt from analysis,

When I telephoned her on Thursday evening I had heard that (* LONELY ECHO FROM
THE PRIVATE INWARDNESS *) of her sad existence.
Wegner and his colleagues aren't certain why this [persistent return of
unwanted thoughts] occurs. He suspects that in suppressing a thought, (* THE MIND
IS STILL ``MONITORING'' THE ``CONTENTS OF CONSCIOUSNESS''*..) for any (..* VESTIGE OF
THE PAINFUL THOUGHT,*) and is thus more sensitive to that thought.
Much research has focused on the process of (* THOUGHT SUPPRESSION---that
is, on the the ways we try to BANISH UNWANTED THOUGHTS *)---and on the
consequences of suppression.
I wish Mrs James wouldn't come to the house. Whenever she does she always
(* INTRODUCES SOME NEW-FANGLED RUBBISH INTO CARRIE'S HEAD.*)
... It's like, (* IN THE BACK OF MIND SOMEWHERE I THINK I KNEW
THAT,*) but I didn't want to cop to it in the moment. ...
I shouldn't even have allowed (* THE THOUGHT TO ENTER MY HEAD,*) because the

(* HIS MIND WAS FULL OF CHERYL AND HER DESPERATE DEFENCE.*)
... [the statue] no longer resembled Senta. Perhaps she never had and the
likeness (* LAY IN HIS ALL TOO WILLING IMAGINATION.*)

He hadn't asked her [what she meant] because what she said (* HAD TAKEN A WHILE
TO SINK IN. IT SURFACED STARKLY NOW.*)
But returning to his car, he thought what confusion deception causes, what
(* A MUDDLE IN THE MIND, so that FACTS ARE MIXED UP WITH TRUTH and TRUTH
DISTORTED.*)
(* WITH THESE IDEAS UNPLEASANTLY OCCUPYING HIS MIND,*) ...
He had to (* RID HIS MIND OF THESE SEVERAL OBSESSIONS, THESE PEGS FROM WHICH
TERRORS HUNG: the sight of a dog, a knife, a tube station even.*) He had to (*
DISPEL ALL THAT AND THINK *) of their future, ...
(* HE SHUT OUT THE AWFUL THOUGHTS.*)
Wasn't it rather that he wasn't sure she hadn't done it that (* THERE STILL
LINGERED SOMEWHERE THE GERM OF A FEAR THAT *) she actually had done it?
(* Philip said to himself, it's obviously not Arnham, you know it's not,
... The only thing to do now was to (* PUT IT ALL OUT OF YOUR HEAD *) *) ...
... he lay thinking about Senta, relieved and happy because (* IN THE REGION OF
HIS MIND WHICH WAS THE PLACE FOR SENTA AND HIMSELF HE HAD AT THIS MOMENT NO
WORRIES AND NO FEARS.*) But (* as if his consciousness didn't want him to be
without anxieties, it allowed CHERYL TO CREEP INTO IT.*)
(* SECOND THOUGHTS, SURFACING as he drove *) ... made him confront
this proposition again.
... and (* into the deep peace *..) of the aftermath of love-making, when he
should have been most free of care, (..* INTRUDED this silent staring threat.
For it did seem to stare at him, it did seem almost a living thing, which
ENTERED HIS CONSCIOUSNESS when least welcome and stood there, arms folded,
exercising its menace.*)
(* HE KNEW THAT THIS WAS TRUE ON ONE LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS, BUT ON ANOTHER
which seemed most to affect his emotions, he had solved his problems, put an
end to misery, won her.*)
[Philip] had lost interest in everything and everybody but Senta. (* SHE
OCCUPIED HIS MIND, SHE HAD MOVED INTO HIS MIND AND LAIN DOWN ON THE BED FROM
WHERE SHE STARED INTO HIS INNER EYES.*)
And he thought of her all the time. (* SHE OCCUPIED HIS THOUGHTS *) on his long
drives, ... Sometimes, (* INSIDE HIS HEAD, HE TALKED TO HER.*)
... but nevertheless, (* DEEP IN HIS OWN MIND, HE DOUBTED.*)
the niggling (* CONCERN which now wormed back INTO HIS MIND:*)
(* [Cheryl's] name and a kind of vague picture of her HAD BEEN IN HIS MIND,*)
The name [Rebecca Neave] for a second meant nothing to Philip, so securely had
he (* BANISHED IT FROM HIS MIND,*) hating to dwell on these things. (* THE
IDENTITY OF ITS POSSESSOR CAME BACK TO HIM *) uneasily ... [NP] ...But this
phobia of his was real enough and sometimes it extended to the human beings (*
WHO ALLOWED VIOLENCE TO OCCUPY THEIR MINDS.*)
I conclude then that these expression or symbolic words get their feeling
of being peculiarly fitting from the (* OTHER WORDS sharing the morpheme which

[O]ur words commonly take meaning through the influence of (*

`We'll get married,' I longed to hear him say, but (* IT STAYED IN MY
IMAGINATION.*
He had shaken his head, to (* DISMISS THE DOUBTS I HAD ATTEMPTED TO PUT

`There's Cassie,' he reminded us both, as if I should feel as bad as he
did about betraying her. How I longed to (* KISS SUCH THOUGHTS RIGHT OUT OF HIS

She smiled back through the intensifying pain [of childbirth], (* HER HEAD FULL

[Sharon] was aware of how they felt: she tried to appease them, persuade
them she was completely happy, but was met with a wall of stony faced silence.
They were not prepared to discuss the situation: (* THEIR EYES --- AND MINDS

[NP] One day (..* THEY WOULD OPEN *) and he would be gone: back to the hole
from which he had crawled.
[NP] (* DEEP DOWN SHARON UNDERSTOOD.*)

She fumbled nervously; (..* if only she could (* FIND THE KEY TO OPEN THE DOOR

incomprehensible change. What was it really about? Stop panicking and think
rationally.*)
(* MY MIND AVOIDED THE KNOWLEDGE THAT LAY DEEP INSIDE ME.*) It would be easy
... to fall in love with this lovely man.
As soon as (* THAT THOUGHT SURFACED *) I attempted to reject it. It was
too daring, and yet (* I recaptured that moment when *) our eyes locked, and I
felt weak, silly, happy.

But my mother (* GOT IT IN HER MIND *) that we had to have a better

then (* THEY LEFT.*) Her own feelings were unhinged and terrible, (* TUFTS OF

We sat at the kitchen table with the night quiet and the highway outside and my

I believed her that day and nothing exactly changed. She watched, waiting.
I willed myself absolutely still but what had been natural (* I NOW FORCED FROM

It is possible to imagine (* A MIND WHICH CONTAINS CONTRARIES: IN WHICH THE

Two incidents particularly have (* STAYED IN MY MIND,*) this week, and lead me
to puzzle over his beliefs and intentions.
I could not sleep that night, although there were no thoughts that kept me

It is the apprehension of these two, not easily reconciled, (* CONCEPTS, HELD

These unconscious activities (* UNDERLIE OUR CONSCIOUS THOUGHTS,*..) and the
