But it was in many ways a lucky escape ... I think the situation and the many unkindnesses were beginning to bring him down ... it was too hard for him to bear any more really ... and once he was out he found his true and happy voice again ... any more time would have been beyond enduring for him ... imho ... the fact that he managed to get through so many weeks without cracking is a real testament to his strength of character ... but in many ways enough really was enough ... his lightness and wit was being extinguished by the heaviness which surrounded him at that point ... he was freed to do lovely things on the outside ... but you are right ... the light went out once he had left ... that much is true ...
