ALT Italicised text reading: but in the minutes before dawn there is peace in the Tower and this moment is all that there is, with a Traitors’ Gate view over the dead city and the river at rush and the ravens, the ravens splitting the fog on dark wings while the two goats bleat in the stable and Thane’s lamp is lit, a will-o-the-wisp at Lanthorn which rises through the wet air and grows, grows in my mind to become a beacon of roaring fire and a candle for the dead, the dead who walk and are sleepless and are everywhere and nowhere, and now when the sun rises over London the fog burns away slowly, slowly, and then all at once, raising the curtain on my holy moment and a day that smiles with its teeth
