Quotation:
[X, 1880, March] Describing Tennyson's appearance: "Hardy often said he was surprised to find such an expression of hunour in the poet-laureate's face, the corners of his mouth twitching with that mood when he talked; it was a genial human face...enhanced by a beard and hair straggling like briars, a shirt with a large loose collar, and old steel spectacles."
