He had doublets cut out of his old clothes and cast-off cloaks for Mousqueton, and thanks to a very intelligent tailor, who made his clothes look as good as new by turning them, and whose wife was suspected of wishing to make Porthos descend from his aristocratic habits, Mousqueton made a very good figure when attending on his master.
Hacía cortar para Mosquetón jubones de sus vestidos viejos y de sus capas de repuesto, y gracias a un sastre muy inteligente que le ponía sus pingajos como nuevos dándoles la vuelta, y de cuya mujer se sospechaba que quería hacer descender a Porthos de sus costumbres aristocráticas, Mosquetón hacía muy buena figura detrás de su amo.
