sullen, inquiring cynicism on his
irregular but expressive features.
He was rejecting in his own crude

was a homeless, irreclaimable pa

veritable gods and goddesses-
All at once the discomfort vanish

irradiated with an appreciative in

footman's calves, incased in flesh
colored hose, would have made the

jealousy could he have seen them.
