Who is that man ?" "He's a Creole; his name is Dubrosc." It was a face purely Norman, and one that would halt the wandering eye in any collection.

Of oval outline, framed by a profusion of black hair, wavy and perfumed.

A round black eye, spanned by brows arching and glossy.

Whiskers that belonged rather to the chin, leaving bare the jawbone, expressive of firmness and resolve.

Firm thin lips, handsomely moustached; when parted, displaying teeth well set and of dazzling whiteness.
