Page "romance" Paragraph 301
from
Brown Corpus
A young man appeared out of a side alley and walked toward us with quick strides.
He wore a long double-breasted coat of a heavy material, dark trousers, and black boots with buckles.
His black hat with its wide brim, high crown, and fur trim rode high.
With his head erect, he approached, not glancing at us, and passed by with his clear eyes raised and fixed straight ahead.
He had a pinkish-white complexion, a small straight nose, a short black beard, and tightly curled paot.
I was suddenly conscious of my bare arms.
The girls in the market place wore long-sleeved dresses and covered their legs with cloth stockings.
I turned and watched him stride down the center of the road.
His hands were swinging at his sides, and he passed through the dingy market place with his back straight and, pivoting on his heel, he entered an old stone building.
