The opening
How “Mrs Dalloway” begins
Mrs. Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself.
For Lucy had her work cut out for her.
The doors would be taken off their hinges; Rumpelmayer’s men were coming.
And then, thought Clarissa Dalloway, what a morning—fresh as if issued to children on a beach.
