Herman Melville, The Paradise of Bachelors and the Tartarus of Maids, racconto, Harper's Magazine, 1885, New York, Stati Uniti d'America. Harper's Magazine.
Before my eyes – there, passing in slow procession along the wheeling cylinders, I seemed to see, glued to the pallid incipience of the pulp, the yet more pallid faces of all the pallid girls I had eyed that heavy day. Slowly, mournfully, beseechingly, yet unresistingly, they gleamed along, their agony dimly outlined on the imperfect paper, like the print of the tormented face on the handkerchief of Saint Veronica.
