| The walls were free of torches, and yet a filmy light seeped in from an unknown source. |
| But when I walked through and under them, the fabric looked heavy and inert, more like drapes than filmy wind-yielding robes. |
| The room was lined with windows, and filmy white curtains fluttered in the breeze. |
| Actually, I do like the delicate, filmy white square edged in yellow with an M embroidered in one corner. |
| When the powdered something hit the water, a filmy silver light hovered over the rim of the smooth darkened wood of the cup. |
| Last week, I slurped down filmy, translucent rice noodles and sang a song of fish sauce, but today I'm trading Southeast Asia for China. |
