Opis: A Dark Night's Work (Classic Reprint) - Ingelow Paul

Excerpt from A Dark Night's Work

His garb was that of a tourist or artist bent on an outing, for which he had selected attire comfortable, appropriate, yet neat.

It fitted his athletic form till the well-built muscles showed swelling and rounded with health and vitality.

The light cap surmounted a brow broad, intellectual, yet bronzed with exposure to the summer sun.

Beneath it flashed eyes poetic, earnest, yet active, subdued to tenderness as they took in the dreamy glories of nature, yet susceptible of expressing vivid emotion when the heart was deeply stirred.

The chin was narrow, yet set, the mouth, sympathetic, yet firm, and, altogether, the striking combination of gravity and gentleness, resolution and tenderness, calculation and purity, method and dreaminess, evinced that their possessor was a remarkable man.

His light tennis-shoes showed preparation for tedious tramps, and were travel-worn and dusty. Across his shoulder ran a strap secured to an oblong case. Hanging to it, too, was what resembled a small portable photographic camera.
