The lawyer was a short, thick-set, bald-headed man, with a black beard tinged with red, long light-coloured eyebrows, and a bulging forehead: He was as spruce as a bridegroom, from his white necktie and double watch-chain to his patent leather boots. His face was intelligent and peasant-like, but his dress was dandified and in bad taste.
Vestía presuntuosamente como un lechuguino, desde la corbata y la cadena del reloj hasta los zapatos de charol. Tenía un rostro inteligente con una expresión de astucia campesina, pero su indumentaria era ostentosa y de mal gusto.
