a comely handsome fellow, Choose one of the adjectives, but don't use both
perfectly well made, with straight strong limbs; tall and well shaped; There's repetition/redundancy here, too. Cut out the words that mean the same as another word in this group.
"about twenty six years of age"; OK
very good countenance"; something very manly in his face"; also somewhat repetitive/redundant
"all the sweetness and softness of a European in his countenance". OK, but don't use "an" in front of a long U sound, such as the first syllable in "European"
