espiral

EN He received it with a smile, one of those large smiles which goes all around over, and has folds in it, and wrinkles, and spirals, and looks like the place where you have thrown a brick in a pond; and then in the act of his taking a glimpse of the bill this smile froze solid, and turned yellow, and looked like those wavy, wormy spreads of lava which you find hardened on little levels on the side of Vesuvius.
GL Recibiuno cun sorriso, un deses sorrisos grandes que se estende por todas partes e que ten engurras, e pregamentos, e espirais e que se parece á parte dunha poza na que un acaba de guindar un ladrillo. E logo xusto cando lle botaba unha ollada ó billete, aquel sorriso de seu xeouse por completo e volveuse amarelo, parecía un deses abanicos ondulados e verminosos que forman as larvas e que se atopan solidificados en niveis baixos ó lado do Vesubio.
