The old bell in the belfry. The light falls just so that you can see all the furrows on the metal, and all around is silence.

Sophia Scott That bell looks really old, the tower masonry around it must be at least a couple of centuries. The way the grooves catch the light shows how much the metal has worn down over time.
Veronika Dvořáková That bell must weigh several hundred kilos. I see the light catching on those deep furrows on the edge, just as if someone had scratched with a knife.
