From Tales My Father Taught Me, by Sir Osbert Sitwell
SISTER DOROTHY
"Sister Dorothy was middle aged and buoyant. In appearance she seemed positively bursting with ill-health, though she contrived in the end to live to be eighty; except for the tea-fiend's protruding teeth, her face looked as if it had been roughly thumbed into shape out of a ripe tomato."
From Chapter 8, Jezebel House and a Grand Piano
