Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance, that was
19
-
never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in
20
-
discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and
21
-
yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to
22
-
his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye;
23
-
something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which
24
-
spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but
25
-
more often and loudly in the acts of his life...
