knotted brow and a gait that grew slower and slower. He was
perplexed and his forehead knitted more and more in a comical
assumption of dignity. Père Boutin thought that he was
dignified, but when one weighs two hundred pounds, and is short
and rolls in one's gait, is it reasonable to expect that the world will
be impressed by one's magnificence? | | | Similar Items: | Find |
