She was clasping the new-comer's hands now, and shaking them excitedly up and down, her eyes searching his face the while. "How is my lad?" she repeated. "He mun be a gradely mon now a gradely mon! Tis what he said hisself when he wur breeched. Dear o' me, I mind it well.
The dwarf, unkempt weeds cloak a meek, weak, shrinking crab, whose frail claws and tufted legs are breeched with muddy moss, and whose oddly-shaped body is obscured by parasitic vegetation and realistic counterfeits thereof.
