She was tall, well formed, and beautiful her eyes, especially, were fine and expressive even her dress was not neglected, and a simple white dishabille added to the charms of this self-devoted victim. On the whole, it is not possible to ascertain precisely the motives which determined her to assassinate Marat.
Jack burst out into a laughter not to be controlled for some minutes, and then acknowledged that she had discovered him. "At all events, Donna Agnes," said he at last, "acknowledge that, ragged as I am, I have seen you in a much greater dishabille."
In such a moment of soul dishabille and her own dishabille of bosom bulging above the tight lacing of her corset-line as she lay prone, her mouth sagging and wet with tears, her lips blowing outward in bubbles, a picture, in fact, to gloss over, Mae Munroe dragged herself closer, flinging her arms about the knees of Mr. Zincas, sobbing through her raw throat. "Just a month, Max! Don't ditch me!
With a sickening feeling of horror at his heart Shock strode to the red-light door, turned the handle, and walked in. In the room were a number of men, and two or three women in all the shameless dishabille of their profession.
