  • But as the Cockney apparition drew nearer, Muscari was astounded to observe that the head was distinctly different from the body.

  • He had held back in a hang-dog style when his son and Muscari had made a bold movement to break out of the brigand trap.

  • Muscari, with the illogicality of a lover, admired this filial devotion, and yet was irritated by it.
