and pink, upper lip pink but very thin and curled; there were four white
spots on the nail of her right hand forefinger, and her eyebrows were very
delicately curved.
"Yes; and a rose-bud tinge in the cheeks; hands like lilies, and perfectly
seraphic smile."
"That is she! that is she!" cried Gregory.
