The Ugly Old Hag

Yesterday, I was just getting done watching the guillotine. I was walking by the West Gate, when I saw the ugliest old hag I have ever seen. She was sitting in her old wagon, when she pulled up to the guards. The back of the wagon was packed with vegetable carts that were empty. As I looked closer at her, I got even more disgusted. Her hair was long, grey, and very ratty. It was ugly and wavy, and looked like she never took care of it. It was greasy and wiry too. As I looked down at her nose, it was so long and huge with big nostrils! Her mouth was dry and chapped, and it was strangely slanted. Her eyes were huge, bloodshot, and one eye was closed and one was open! Her shirt was grey, with knitted holes that were torn. Her skirt was loose, lumpy, yellowish, and very wide. That is the last time I am walking by the West Gate again.
