Excerpt
The face of the man, undefended by an umbrella, was full of power. The large aggressive nose and the fighting jaw literally clove their way through wind and water. There was a look of subtle satisfaction about him, as of a full-blooded animal occupied worthily. In the square-fronted march through the teeth of the gale, in the drive of the athletic limbs, there was the stern delight that warriors feel. Wind and water furiously contested every yard that he made; but this Titan, chin in the air, a grim smile upon his face, abated not a point in his course.
