Shaggy hair, untrimmed beard descending to the chest, the body almost naked except a rag round the waist, wild eyes, enormous hands with immensely long nails, skin the color of mahogany, feet as hard as if made of horn, such was the miserable creature who yet had a claim to be called a man.
Cabellera enmarañada, barba inculta que le bajaba hasta el pecho, cuerpo casi desnudo, salvo un pedazo de manta rodeada a la cintura, ojos feroces, manos enormes, uñas desmesuradamente largas, color de caoba oscuro, pies endurecidos como si estuviesen hechos de cuerno: tal era la miserable criatura, a la cual, sin embargo, era preciso llamar hombre.
