Hilaire Belloc 
The Green Overcoat 

The Green Overcoat follows a story of Professor Higginson, a tall, thin, exceedingly shy and nervous psychologist on his journey when he comes across the magnificent green overcoat. Its cloth is soft and thick, pliable and smooth; the rich fur at the collar and cuffs was a promise of luxury lining… Now the Devil during all Professor Higginson’s life had had trifling fun with him until that memorable moment.
