The roof herof is of solid jasper and a canopy of Tyrian awning arises and descends to it. A grapeclusterº of lights hangs there beneath the canopy and allº the house is filled with the breathings of her fairness, the fairness of mixed acidulateds & the fairness of milk and rhubarb and the fairness of roasted meats and unionmargrits and the fairness of promise and with consonantia and avowal.
