dressed in a plaited robe with ample sleeves,
fastened at the waist with a broad sash and
cascading in undulous folds over his pointed
shoes, his right hand clutching a gnarled staff,
now fitted with a coral finial, the left grasping
knotted ribbons trailing in front of his robe, the
greenish-white stone with a fine smooth polish
