Looking through the case, then upstairs, another glass case, and now I'm finding expensive fountain pens, Mont Blancs, all sorts of designs, new, in the box, I can't keep up with all the treasures, and as quickly as I'm piling them up they're disappearing, and I'm getting a little panic-stricken, can I afford them all? And where are they going to?
My father, he's had enough, he wants us to hurry, get out of here, time to continue onwards to our destination, ...
