TWENTY-THIRD

To oxen, horns; to horses, their hoofs, had nature given; to timid hares, their fleetness; and fearful teeth to lions; to fish, the power of swimming; to birds, the power of flying; to man, of understanding. What, then, was left for woman? What could she give her? Beauty; above all other weapons, offensive or defensive, she conquers even iron, or fire, whom beauty aideth.

—Anonymous.

TWENTY-FOURTH

He thought it happier to be dead, to die for beauty, than live for bread.

—Emerson.

TWENTY-FIFTH

'Tis not a lip or eye, we beauty call, But the joint force and full result of all.

—Pope.

TWENTY-SIXTH

Give me a look, give me a face, that makes simplicity a grace.

—Jonson. 65
