I stand at the window and see a house, trees, sky.

And yet even though such droll calculation were possible and implied, say, for the house 120, the trees 90, the sky 117 -- I should at least have this arrangement and division of the total, and not, say, 127 and 100 and 100; or 150 and 177.

Just watch me catch him all alive, this man from Ironbark."
