"The real estate agent told him over the telephone of the renting of the house. 'She's got on pants,' the agent said. 'I mean, not these ladies' slacks but pants, man's pants. I mean, they are too little for her in just exactly the right places any man would want to see them too little but no woman would unless she had them on herself. I reckon Miss Martha ain't going to like that much.'"

Faulkner, The Wild Palms.
