His rosy face, with its snub nose, set in this fleece, was like a melon among its leaves. His neighbor on the other side, who lay motionless some distance from him with his head thrown back, was a young soldier with a snub nose. Is not this a way which you have with the fair: one has a snub nose, and you praise his charming face; the hook-nose of another has, you say, a royal look; while he who is neither snub nor hooked has the grace of regularity: the dark visage is manly, the fair are children of the gods; and as to the sweet `honey pale,' as they are called, what is the very name but the invention of a lover who talks in diminutives, and is not adverse to paleness if appearing on the cheek of youth? |
