Every night for a week, therefore, he had followed the wonderful lines of the Milo's beautiful body, which seemed to grow with warmth under the flare of the overhanging gas-jets. These favored life students occupied the room next to the casts. Mother Mulligan, in full regalia of apron and broom, often sat there as a model.
