About

Within the pavilion are angels in postures of disarray. Some seek ineffectively to cut graceful arcs with their sleeves, some are twisting and writhing. They stretch their hands languorously over finite spaces but cannot touch, their robes are senselessly dirty, filth pours from their bodies.

What is happening? The five signs have come. The angels are princesses with no escape, caught by the plague in a close, tropical garden.
