manikin

Through snatches of sleep, my disordered dreams made a grinning, red Manikin of our ship.

Whichever way we stood him, Manikin would jump up serenely on his plump little legs, always smiling and jolly.

But unseen by the king, the manikin was standing beside him when he said that, and heard all.

For thirty years that great and good man had been represented by a stuffed manikin.

Gliding here and yon, and jiggling a tray to serve the general need, went a waxen-faced manikin.
