Here you are, David. No italics etc. I wish you luck.
In Mexico City they somehow wandered into an exhibition of paintings by
the beautiful Spanish exile Remedies Varo: in the central painting of a
triptych, titled "Bordando el Manto Terrestre," were a number of frail
girls with heart-shaped faces, huge eyes, spun-gold hair, prisoners in the
top room of a circular tower, embroidering a kind of tapestry which
spilled out the slit windows and into a void, seeking hopelessly to fill
the void: for all the other buildings and creatures, all the waves, ships
and forests of the earth were contained in this tapestry, and the tapestry
was the world.
