Mir kommt es so vor, als ob einen Augenblick lang der Glanz meines Revolvers nachläßt, als ob ein Schatten auf ihn fällt, dann aber blinkt der Revolver wieder stählern wie vorher und ich höre die Totenuhr weiter entfernt.

It seems to me that the gleam of my revolver fades for a moment as if a shadow falls on it. But then the revolver flashes again, steely as before, and I hear the death watch beetle further away.
