| This was once a great audience
chamber,
as shown by the tattered banners and tapestries on the walls, destroyed furniture, <sideboard, rushes, closet (wardrobe), closet (wardrobe), armchair, pillow> and heaps of rotting cloth thrown into corners. Once richly appointed, it has been thoroughly searched, sacked, and despoiled. Leaves and dirt cover the floor, and cobwebs hang from walls and the ceiling above. Looking up, you see that pieces of beams and chunks of stone poke through, indicating that the upper stories of the place are totally destroyed and likely to be impassable to anything larger than a rat. |
