Some rather lovely lines, taken from the ceiling of the Alhambra

The hands of the Pleiades will spend the night invoking
God's protection in their favour and they will awaken to
the gentle blowing of the breeze.
In here is a cupola which by its height becomes lost from
sight...

Apparently, someone's been translating and collating all the writing on the walls of the Alhambra, which I think is extremely cool. Thanks to mirabilis.ca for the link.
