Prologue. Neurology's favourite term
Traffic. Street sounds
(That's why) I'm here
Can I help?
And yet
You can see very clearly
What do you see now?
Where was his hat?
...(mistake his) wife for a hat?
Bösendorfer!
Ich grolle nicht (Robert Schumann's Dichterlieder, Op. 48/7)
But what of the parietal regions?
What's the time?
What is this?... It's a square
What is this?... Six inches in length
Now, what is this?
Pawn to King 4
From our end, high up there
Your husband's a painter, I see
Ach! Tea from China, lovely fragrance
I cannot tell you what is wrong
