Excerpt from The Rose of Jericho
The other old lady was round and comfortable and sweet, with the colour of a winter apple in her brown cheeks, and a light like youth in her bright hazel eyes. Almost like youth too was the strength still evident in every part of her sturdy frame There were laugh wrinkles around her eyes, and kind ones around her mouth, and her grey hair rippled softly from under an Irish mutch cap. She must have been beloved once.
