'Something rose from the dunes...angled like a toppled tree or marble column...it was blunted, crooked...Fifty men, hands linked, could not encircle the base.

The stone looked both creased and polished, dark grey under the colorless light of the moon...revealed the stone to be green...'Jade...That's not a coloumn...It's a finger' (DG, UK MMPB, p.273-5)

'The details of that carved jade finger...Swells and folds of skin, the whorls of the pad...' (DG, UK MMPB, p.275)
