Gately, the wraith, and the figurants — "CERISE MONTCLAIR and then DE SICA…"

Carlisle's reading of the flood's buried last term, recorded not adopted: LEVIRATE MARRIAGE — marriage between a man and his brother's widow — is the wraith pointing straight at the Tavis/Avril (Claudius/Gertrude) architecture without saying so, and he cross-refs Hal reading the Riverside Hamlet under the Consummation of the Levirates mosaic print (p. 171). He also runs a delta on PIROUETTE: figurant is itself a term from ballet, and Gately had never once seen a ballet (p. 194) — the scene's own key word is part of the lexical signature. (The run-together and its term order are confirmed in print.)
