"In this room (the black room] stood a great clock of black wood. Gently it marked the seconds as they passed; and when it was time to mark the hour the clock spoke with a
loud, clear voice, a deep tone as beautiful as music, but so strange that the music and
the dancing stopped and the dancers stood still to listen. And then, after another sixty
minutes, after another three thousand and six hundred seconds of Time, of flying Time,
the clock struck again, and the dancers stopped as before."

development of the story's theme(s)?
