hello!
trying to make a pattern and want to delete everything that exists outside of a chosen section of a shape/mask.

sorry if this is a really nooby question i just cant quite figure it out! so far i'm just having to go line by line cutting it at the right point, which is just rather time consuming.
file attatched :)
basically i have this:
and need to turn it into this:
