A caution to writers: a celestial globe is like spell-checking software, in that once you grow accustomed to having it, dependency grows. A celestial globe is one of the many tools we use for writing our lesser-known works of esoterica.

Here's a great justification for varnishing the truth, which I'll summarize for your convenience (though of course the original passage is superior):
1. varnish brings out veins of beauty that were otherwise invisible
2. it doesn't actually hide the sober facts of life since it's transparent
3. having penetrated the artifice, the observer's powers of insight are flattered and attention is better secured
4. even the coarsest mundanity has moods in which it's gilded by the light of romance
5. if the storyteller believes in the true gold of those fairy minarets, the story benefits
From Idolatry by Julian Hawthorne, 1874.

we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |
