"Gopher-wood"

The Ark is a room. A bearded man is in the Ark.

Instead of examining the bearded man for the first time:
now the printed name of the bearded man is "Japheth";
now the bearded man is proper-named;
say "You peer at him a bit more closely and realize that it's Japheth."


Understand "Japheth" as the bearded man when the bearded man is proper-named.

Test me with "x japheth / x man / look / x japheth".
