Not as the plants and flowers of Earth, growing peacefully Coiling and uncoiling in double dawns tossing tumultuously under vast suns of jade green and balas-ruby orange swaying and weltering in rich twilights, in aurora-curtained nights, they resembled fields of rooted servants that dance eternally to an other-worldly music. Not as the plants and flowers of Earth, growing peacefully beneath a simple sun, were the blossoms of the planet Lophai. The first is written in the usual way, the second is written boustrophedon: To see what that means, examine two versions of the first paragraph of Clark Ashton Smith’s story “ The Demon of the Flower” (1933). The word is used of writing that runs down the page in the same way.

Boustrophedon (pronounced “bough-stra-FEE-dun” or “boo-stra-FEE-dun”) is an ancient Greek word literally meaning “as the ox turns (in ploughing)”, that is, moving left-right, right-left, and so on.
