Mr John Tanner suddenly opens the door and enters. He is too
young to be described simply as a big man with a beard. But it is
already plain that middle life will find him in that category. He has
still some of the slimness of youth; but youthfulness is not the effect
he aims at: his frock coat would befit a prime minister; and a certain
chested carriage of the shoulders, a lofty pose of the head, and the
Olympian majesty with which a mane, or rather a huge whisp, of
hazel colored hair is thrown back from an imposing brow, suggest
Jupiter rather than Appolo. He is prodigiously fluent of speech,
restless, excitable (mark the snoring nostril and the restless blue eye,
just the thirty-secondth of an inch too wide open), possibly a little
mad. He is carefully dressed, not from the vanity that cannot resist
finery, but from a sense of the importance of everything he does
which leads him to make as much of paying a call as other men do of
getting married or laying a foundation stone. A sensitive, susceptible,
exaggerative, earnest man: a megol-maniac, who would be lost
without a sense of humor. Just at present the sense of honour is in
abeyance.

Інші ходитимуть люди,
Інші кохатимуть люди -
