Garlandry
Translation examples
the lavished garlandry of woven brown hair amazed me--I feared it was not all my own, and it required several convincing pulls to give assurance to the contrary.
la profusión de cabellos castaños trenzados como guirnaldas me dejó boquiabierta… temí que no fueran todos míos, y tuve que darme varios tirones para cerciorarme de lo contrario.
I hardly noticed by what magic these doors were made to roll back--Dr. John managed these points; roll back they did, however, and within was disclosed a hall--grand, wide, and high, whose sweeping circular walls, and domed hollow ceiling, seemed to me all dead gold (thus with nice art was it stained), relieved by cornicing, fluting, and garlandry, either bright, like gold burnished, or snow-white, like alabaster, or white and gold mingled in wreaths of gilded leaves and spotless lilies: wherever drapery hung, wherever carpets were spread, or cushions placed, the sole colour employed was deep crimson.
No sé qué clase de magia conseguía abrir aquellas puertas… el doctor John se ocupaba de esos asuntos; se abrieron, sin embargo, y apareció ante nosotros una sala, de gran tamaño, cuyas paredes circulares y techo en forma de cúpula me parecieron de oro (por la destreza con que habían sido realizados); tenían en relieve toda clase de molduras y guirnaldas, brillantes como el oro pulido o níveas como el alabastro, y el color blanco y el color áureo se fundían en hermosas coronas de hojas doradas y lirios inmaculados; tanto los cortinajes como las alfombras y los cojines eran de un vivo color carmesí.
