The gloom of the night was funereal; all nature seemed clothed in crape.
There was I, straight as a young poplar, wi' my firelock, and my bagnet, and my spatterdashes, and my stock sawing my jaws off, and my accoutrements sheening like the seven stars! Yes, neighbours, I was a pretty sight in my soldiering days. You ought to have seen me in four!" "'Tis his mother's side where Master Clym's figure comes from, bless ye," said Timothy. "I know'd her brothers well.
