Francis entered the room alone . There were the decorations on the walls and the ceiling , exactly as they had been described to him ! He had just time to perceive this at a glance , before his attention was diverted to himself and his own sensations , by a grotesquely disagreeable occurrence which took him completely by surprise .
Фрэнсис вошел в комнату один. На стенах и потолке были украшения, именно такие, как ему описали! Он успел только заметить это с первого взгляда, как внимание его было отвлечено на него самого и на его собственные ощущения каким-то гротескно-неприятным происшествием, застигшим его совершенно врасплох.
