Susan goes and selects three rugs to unroll. One, a medium-sized rectangle, has a blue background, with trailing vines and birds woven in greens and yellows. One is clearly meant for children: it's small and tufted, in the shape of a flower itself, done in shades of blue yarns. The last is large and looks like Delftware in rug form: intricate blue flowers curl around each other on an ivory base. Once they're laid out, she looks at Galahad, wondering if they'll speak for themselves.
