He sits all day on the terrace of the Brokers' Club watching women pass, with the restless eye of someone endlessly shuffling through an old soiled pack of cards.

He spends his days on the terrace of the Brokers' Club, observing the women as they walk by. His gaze is restless and constant, resembling someone who continually shuffles through a battered, worn-out deck of cards, unable to settle or find focus.

This imagery suggests a sense of boredom or longing, with the man quietly absorbed in his passive watch, perhaps waiting for something or lost in his own thoughts. The scene evokes a mood of stillness and quiet introspection amidst a bustling environment.
