Millicent Blade had a notable head of naturally fair hair; she had a docile¹ and affectionate disposition², and an expression of face which changed with lightning rapidity from amiability³ to laughter and from laughter to respectful interest. But the feature which, more than any other, endeared her to sentimental⁵ Anglo-Saxon manhood was her nose.
It was not everybody’s nose; many prefer one with greater body; it was not a nose to appeal to painters, for it was far too small and quite without shape, a mere⁶ dab⁷ of putty without apparent bone structure; a nose which made it impossible for its wearer to be haughty⁸ or imposing⁹ or astute¹⁰. It would not have done for a governess or a cellist¹¹ or even for a post office clerk, but it suited Miss Blade’s book perfectly¹², for it was a nose that pierced the thin surface crust of the English heart to its warm and pulpy¹³ core; a nose to take the thoughts of English manhood back to its schooldays, to the doughy-faced urchins¹⁴ on whom it had squandered¹⁵
