The young owner I'd like to be able to describe; I don't think I have ever seen such perfection of finish of dress, and even form; his complexion was palest coffee-colour, teeth perfectly white and symmetrical, cap and jacket of the most delicate finish, silk shoes and white socks, and baggy trousers, all as if split new and of perfection of workmanship, and he Totted up his accounts and did all the business with a polished self-possessed manner!

William G. Burn Murdoch

"A Prisoner in Fairyland"
Algernon Blackwood

"Hunger"
Knut Hamsun
