lyrics

As the head-like structure approached the back of the curtains,
it gave quite a flat impression, not like a picture
but like the mask of a face on which the features of a face
were to be modelled by the sketchy insertion of small grey
and white patches of some kind of soft material.

This remarkable thing moved freely
and drew a long white veil after it
which suddenly detached itself and fell to the ground,
while the mask-like object disappeared backwards
into the darkness of the cabinet.

When on the medium’s left an oblong white mass was again
exposed, the author took another photograph (Figure 53).
After this the sitting had to be closed
on account of Eva’s fatigue.
