He'd been in the coasting trade all 'is life, while I've knocked about all over the world, but to hear 'im talk you'd think he knew more about things than I did.
Severence, pink-and-white, middle-aged, fattish and obviously futile, watched him with increasing nervousness. He would surely break something; or, being by a window when the impulse to depart seized him, would leap through, taking sash, curtains and all with him. "Perhaps we'd better go outdoors," suggested she. She felt very helpless, as usual.
Strangely moved, Soames looked at the Cook's pleasant fattish face, all little puckers from staring at fires. "That'll do him a world of good, sir," she said. A mutter came from Timothy, but he was clearly speaking to himself, and Soames went out with the cook. "I wish I could make you a pink cream, Mr. Soames, like in old days; you did so relish them.

We dined with Madame Gounsovski, who appeared fattish like her husband, and three or four men whom I had never seen anywhere. One servant waited on us. My word! "At dessert Gounsovski took me aside and told me I was unwise to 'argue that way. I asked him what he meant by that.

He won't bite, I don't reckon, and there ain't no use mussin' up two tables." There was no protesting against two such arguments; so Susan presently had opposite her a fattish man with long oily hair and a face like that of a fallen and dissipated preacher.

Why why, do you speak English? Little boys who steal are beaten. You know that? 'I do not I did not steal. Kim danced in agony like a terrier at a lifted stick. 'Oh, give it me. It is my charm. Do not thieve it from me. The Chaplain took no heed, but, going to the tent door, called aloud. A fattish, clean-shaven man appeared. 'I want your advice, Father Victor, said Bennett.
It had that look, peculiar to some men, of having been steeped in linseed oil, with its waxed dark moustaches and the little distinguished commencements of side whiskers; and concernedly he felt the promise of a pimple on the side of his slightly curved and fattish nose.
