waxen

A waxen young woman stands in silence at an underground railway platform.

Her bare shoulders looked waxen and unnatural in the weird light which shone down upon them.

A streak of sunshine had found its way into the room, lay across the carpet, and touched Sogrange's still, waxen features.

We had no molds, but Annie said the latest style in Natchez was to make a waxen rope by dipping, then wrap it round a corn-cob.

He looked like an old patriarch, with his tall figure and waxen complexion.

Deep in the shadow the three old ladies sat in a waxen ecstasy, so still that Michael wondered whether they were alive.
