A diamond box would neither absorb much of the light nor reflect much from the general surface, but just here and there where the surfaces were favourable the light would be reflected and refracted, so that you would get a brilliant appearance of flashing reflections and translucencies-a sort of skeleton of light.
Diamantezko kutxa batek gainalde arruntetan ez du argi kopuru handirik bereganatzen, ezta islatzen ere, baina han-hemeka, gainalde jakin batzuetan, argia islatzen eta errefraktatzen da; eta horrela isla eta gardentasun distiratsua ikusiko zenuke, argizko hezurdura moduko bat.
