his countenance betokened a sensual
rather than an intellectual quality of
character; he had not inherited the
Napoleon cast of face; he was Beau-
harnais, not Bonaparte; the forehead was
broad, the nose prominent,
suggesting a certain German type; the
eyes small, grayish-blue in color,
rather expressionless; as one biographer
said, 'if they were windows of
his soul, their blinds were constantly
drawn;' his hair was iron-gray;
his natural 'make-up' was given a
distinguished air by the famous im-
perial goatee and the spreading, heavy,
mustachios, each curled to a sharp
point and stiffly waxed. He bore an
expression of extreme placidity, al-
most of sadness, an absent-minded look
as if harboring some serious
thought that dominated his environment;
pallid and apparently care-
worn, he was the living embodiment of
Shakespeare's lines, 'All sicklied
o'er with the pale cast of thought.'
Doubtless his prophetic soul uncon-
sciously glimpsed the gory aftermath,
lurking just beyond the glory of
the present halcyon days."
