Mr Tate withdrew his delving hand and spread out the essay. It was indeed as if he had found even now--as he had so often found at lessons--still some other delicate way to ease me off.

How characterless they looked: Shuley without his deep unbuttoned collar, Ennis without his scarlet belt with the snaky clasp, and Connolly without his Norfolk coat with the flapless side-pockets! It was a pain to see them, and a sword-like pain to see the signs of adolescence that made repellent their pitiable nakedness.
