Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 459.1 Hz, 74 cents sharp of A4, the nearest tine on the comb. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
The Taj Mahal is a white marble tomb in Agra, in India. The emperor Shah Jahan had it built in memory of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal; the work took from about 1632 to 1653, and about 20,000 workers built it. Its white marble is inlaid with patterns of colored stone, and it stands in a garden with a long reflecting pool.
Tap it for moonlight: night falls over the garden and the buildings, the moon rises behind the Taj, the great dome glows white against the night sky, and moonlight shimmers on the rippling pool; then the day comes back.
