hirsute HUR-soot; HIR-soot; hur-SOOT; hir-SOOT, adjective:

Covered with hair; set with bristles; shaggy; hairy.

The Bear... makes the rounds of the clubs "disguised" in trench coat and broad-brimmed hat, hoping (successfully, it seems) to be mistaken for a rather hirsute human. --Richard M. Sudhalter, "'The Bear Comes Home': Composing the Words That Might Capture Jazz," [1]New York Times, August 29, 1999

"First of all, your nose is nearly covered with your bloody moustache and your beard," Mr Gogarty replied. Mr. Allen apologised for his "hirsute" appearance. --Paul Cullen, "No ambush sprung on returning Gogarty," [2]Irish Times, March 23, 1999

He was incredibly hirsute: there was even a thick pelt of hair on the back of his hands. --Tama Janowitz, [3]By the Shores of Gitchee Gumee

Hirsute comes from Latin hirsutus, "covered with hair, rough, shaggy, prickly."

histrionic (his-tree-ON-ik) adjective

1. Of or pertaining to actors, acting, or theater.

2. Overly dramatic or affected.

[From Late Latin histrionicus, from Latin histrion-, histrio (actor).]

"The playwright's intent together with his moral input ignored, a

drama of great depth is trivialized. An unbearably boring, histrionic

horror takes its place." Naomi Doudai, Histrionic Horror, The Jerusalem Post, Sep 7, 1999

"Eventually, Dickens fused his talents in the public readings from

his own novels, which dominated his last years, in the course of which he astounded huge crowds on both sides of the Atlantic with his histrionic genius." Simon Callow, To Be a Shape-Shifting Cast of One, The New York

Times, Apr 21, 2002.

mense (mens) noun

Propriety, decorum.

verb tr.

To adorn, grace.

[From Middle English menske (honor), from Old Norse mennska (humanity).]

"Auld Vandal! ye but show your little mense, Just much about it wi' your scanty sense: Will your poor, narrow foot-path of a street, Where twa wheel-barrows tremble when they meet."Robert Burns, The Brigs Of Ayr, 1787.

These lines are from a poem Burns wrote about a dialog between two bridges when the construction of a new bridge began over the Ayr in Scotland in 1786. The Auld Brig retorts to the above mocking by New Brig that one shouldn't get carried away in vanity and pride: "I'll be a brig when ye're a shapeless cairn!"

The poet's words proved prophetic when in the 1877 flood the New

Brig collapsed into a heap of stones while the Auld Brig still stands. You can read the complete poem at: http://bartleby.com/6/133.html
