The man was of fine figure, dark skinned, and stern in aspect; and he showed in profile a
facial angle so slightly inclined as to be almost at an angle. He wore a short jacket of brown
corduroy, newer than the remainder of his suit, which was a thick waist coat with white horn
buttons, pants of the same, tanned leggings, and a straw hat over laid with black glazed
canvas. At his back he carried by a circle strap a rush basket, from which sticking out at one
end the crutch of a hay knife, a wimble for hay bonds being also visible in the hole. His
measured, springless walk was the walk of the skilled countryman as distinct from the
enthusiasm shamble of the general labourer; while in the turn and plant of each foot there
was, further, a dogged and cynical in difference, personal to himself, showing its presence
even in the regularly interchanging thick folds, now in the left leg, now in the right, as he
paced along.

Andrew entered the room had watched him with glad, affectionate eyes, now came up and
took his arm. before he looked around, Prince Andrew frowned again, expressing his

“I knew you would be here” replied Pierre. “I will come to supper with you, may I?” he
added in low voice so as not to disturb vicomte who was continuing his story.
