night table

It’s the red blinking light atop the phone on his night table.

I laid down and, as usual, took a book from my night-table to read myself to sleep.

My first attempt was to work a hole through the wall, seven feet thick behind, and concealed by the night-table.

On the night-table, covered with a white cloth, three wax-tapers were burning.

So long as the medicines had littered the night-table she still had entertained hopes of a miraculous recovery.

On the night-table lay a tea-tray in disorder, and on the turned-down sheet some crumbs of toast.
