Translation examples
Like the horsemen they had met, the faces were more Turkish than Oriental, nut-brown in the desert sun, but for the heavily veiled Mahommedan women of whom only their hands and feet could be seen; other women did not cover their faces, but wore only the same four-cornered caps as the men, embroidered lavishly in dyed silks, and watched them with open curious dark eyes: interest returned in at least full measure by the men.
Tenían la piel morena por efecto del sol del desierto, aunque las mujeres mahometanas iban cubiertas de arriba abajo, dejando ver únicamente los pies y las manos, y las mujeres sin velo lucían tocados cuadrangulares como los hombres, aunque magníficamente bordados con sedas de colores, y observaban a los aviadores con sus oscuros ojos redondos como platos a causa de la sorpresa, un interés al que correspondieron la mitad de los hombres.
