that she had once been young and pretty and had a husband, but that was hard
to believe. My grandfather's portrait hung above the mantiepiece in the
drawing-room. He wore a big turban and loose fitting clothes. His long,
white beard covered the best part of his chest and he looked at least a hundred
years old. He did not look the sort of person. Who would have a wife or
Children. He looked as if he could only have lots and lots of grand children.

and slightly bent. Her face was a criss-cross of Wrinkles running from
everywhere to everywhere.
