El personaje narrador se detiene en un regodeo morboso al imaginar los pies de su amada en sandalias que compra para ella: "imagino el delicado pie de Aida, blanco y pequeno, para su estatura, calzando lentamente la rustica sandalia con hilos de cuero que debera anudar en la suave contorsion del tobillo" (143).
