forehead, void of bashfulness; if the forehead be very big, slow and applied to the ox. If round to be dull of apprehension, and applied to the ass. If it is plain it is circumspect, and applied to the ass, or the dog. A square formed forehead, bold and applied to the lion.
The Eyes.
The eyes small shew shame faced-ness; how much bigger the eyes so the less malice but the more folly. The eyes large, standing out, foolish, fearful, and immodest. Eyes disorderly roving too rash and unquiet in mind. The eye-lid quavering, fearful. The eye moving swiftly, with a sharpish look, fraudulent, unfaithful, and a thief. The eye stedfastly looking, troubled in mind, and a deceiver. The eye very wide open, extremely imprudent.
The Nose.
The nose round, with a sharpness at the end, wavering of mind. The nose crooked like the eagle’s bill, too bold.
