with a shining tin roof; a crimson house
with an emerald roof; a sky blue house

an olive roof; a house painted a bright
metallic green all over; a house diversified
with dark blue, light blue, red green
and chocolate brown; and, finally, a
most extraordinary building which dis¬
played the whole chromatio scalo within
the compass of three stories and an attic.
