Nice pleasant afternoon. Man goes walking. In this field he sees a tall, rounded, stone tower. Decides to investigate. Inside he starts climbing the winding staircase, counting as he does so, 50, 75, 100, 150, and finally on the 250 th step he reaches the top and, catching his breath, he takes in the magnificent sunny views, the river, fields and woods.
He dallies for a while, enjoying the scenery, breathing in a warm air. Then, with a start, his reverie is broken by a shadow breaking over the stone and he suddenly realizes that the sun is starting to set.
He reluctantly begins his way downwards, into the musky gloom of the tower, counting as he does so. 50, 75, 100, 200. Ah, nearly there. 220, 230, oh, the light has completely gone now, but not long now. A bit more hurriedly now his steps count 240, 245, 255, 260........................
