Excerpt from The Jew's Daughter, or the Witch of the Water-Side: A Story of the Thirteenth Century His complexion was darkened by exposure to many a blast and sun beam, of sea and land. Upon his head he wore a jewelled turban, sloping to the back of the neck. His beard fell, coal-black, to his girdle, and was waved and glossed with skill. His dress was a tunic of dark fine stud, with large loose sleeves lined with fine fur. A pouch of scented leather was attached to his girdle, with a long straight knife, and an antique inkhorn. His Spanish boots were turned down with expensive fur and the Jewish badge, was fastened upon his breast. Over a desk that slanted was thrown a strip Of parchment, each end of which fell to the floor in a roll it was a Hebraical deed of ao quittance. On which the merchant was pointing characters of his native tongue - his lines moving up the parchment instead of down, and his words from right to left instead of from left to right. He threw himself back in his seat his right hand resting on the deed, and his elbow on a black chest plac ed against the wall, while he looked with his intelligent eye towards his young companion, who stood weigh ing coin in scales at the chest.
