First vaguely contemptful of his 'all the time in the world' for reveries at the 'Jardin des Plantes' - I believe Gaston Bachelard is big on reverie, and like the words in Aplhaville, its probably another vital one now disappeared - which I suppose the 'work' here is all categorical evidence of; second taken in (-in reverie-) by one. Going in again having met someone at a volunteer gig who explained having given up being rugby player to re/turn to Art, who - and to whom I explained I was only visting to see one painting again for a while - I caught up with sitting infront of that one painting, I explained to with light mirth that the one painting I'd come to see I'd just realised had 'rugby' as its subjects.[Laughter] Then I left, the other still on the bench with it it view. So, go to 'Room 9', visit 'The Footballers, 1908' and be[come] a player (again?); 'play' Rousseau's *game*; throw the ball; etcetera...
