Han måtte være en mann på førti år eller deromkring,
hans hår var allerede sterkt grånet, for øynene bar han store, runde, gullrammede briller,
en nesten hvit bart hang i laser utover hans munn, når han ikke var beskjeftiget med å
gni sine hender varme, strøk han seg over dette skjegg og holdt da betenksomt hodet på
skakke, han var usedvanlig, nesten sykelig mager, huden var trukket stramt over hans
ansiktsben, hans tinninger var to tydelig groper.

He must have been a man of forty or so, his hair was already heavily gray, over his eyes he wore large, round, gold-rimmed glasses, an almost white mustache hung limply over his mouth, when he was not busy rubbing his hands together, he stroked this beard and then thoughtfully held his head on one side, he was unusually, almost sickly thin, the skin was pulled tight over his facial bones, his temples were two distinct depressions.
