The speaker's obstinate carriage, square coat, square legs, square shoulders, —nay, his very neckcloth, trained to take him by the throat with an unaccommodating grasp, like a stubborn fact, as it was, —all helped the emphasis.

Deep eye sockets would give the appearance that the eyes were located far away from the rest of the face, as if in a cave.
