What is the meaning of ''crispness'' in this sentence ?
His appearance was as ghastly as ever, but all trace of delirium had left him and he spoke in a feeble voice, but with even more than his usual crispness and lucidity.
I know the meaning of crispness for food, it's like crunchy I think, but for a person I have no idea.

Hi Florian, in this case, it's about clarity. 'Crisp sound' is very clear and easy to make out, so if his voice has 'crispness', he just speaks very clearly.
Hope this helps.
