He had been educated partly in England, and spoke English without difficulty and almost without accent, as Logotheti did.

He came forward to meet Margaret as she entered the room, and he greeted her warmly, thanking her for being so good as to come at short notice.
Logotheti was the next to take her hand, and she looked at him attentively when her eyes met his, wondering whether he, too, would think her changed.

He himself was not, at all events.

Mustapha Pasha, a born Musalman and a genuine Turk, never arrested attention in an English drawing-room by his appearance; but Constantino Logotheti, the Greek, was an Oriental in looks as well as in character.

His beautiful eyes were almond-shaped, his lips were broad and rather flat, and the small black moustache grew upwards and away from them so as not to hide his mouth at all.
