EDNOTE REPLY. I, alas, am not the party to officiate on matters of German translation. I beg the assistance of native speakers.

Subject: help with translation?

Dear Don,

I don't understand the second part of this sentence from the German Lolita. It follows the apparent seduction scene.

Can you help?


Tage und Nächte kamen und gingen vorbei - das Mysterium der Schönheit hielt sie in ewig gleichbleibender, singender Gelassenheit umsponnen.



thanks,
Carolyn
