A large face, seared with a thousand wrinkles, burned yellow with the sun, and marked with every evil passion, was turned from one to the other of us, while his deep-set, bile-shot eyes, and his high, thin, fleshless nose, gave him somewhat the resemblance to a fierce old bird of prey.
Su rostro amplio, surcado por mil arrugas, tostado por el sol hasta adquirir un matiz amarillento y marcado por todas las malas pasiones, se volvía alternativamente de uno a otro de nosotros, mientras sus ojos, hundidos y biliosos, y su nariz alta y huesuda, le daban cierto parecido grotesco con un ave de presa, vieja y feroz.
