Torn page! Please help?

Hello!

I'm currently reading through Maskerade, and I've gotten to the bottom of page 201 only to find that a chunk of the middle of the page at the bottom is missing. It looks as though it possibly happened during printing, and I've had the book long enough that I probably can't manage to return it.

Would someone be so kind as to type out the full of a few sentences for me, so that I can jot them down in the sidelines on either side of the page? I've put up the area around the torn bit, with ----- in place of what's missing out of my copy. Thanks very much!

Page 201:

"I don't think he minds. It's hard to ------------

long-drawn-out clatter that begins when a pile of (end of page)

Page 202:

    "What does he think about it?"
    "I don't think he minds. It's hard to tell, isn't it?"
    There was a crash from the direction of the kitchen, although it was really more of a crashendo- the long drawn out clatter that begins when a pile of plates begins to slip, continues when someone tries to grab at them, develops a desperate counter-theme when the person realises they don't have three hands, and ends with the <i>roinroinroin</i> of the one miraculously intact plate spinning round and round on the floor.
