"Sketches indeed, from that most passionate page,

A woman's heart, of feelings, thoughts, that make

The atmosphere in which her spirit moves;

But like all other earthly elements,

O'ercast with clouds; now dark, now touched with light,

With rainbows, sunshine, showers, moonlight, stars,

Chasing each other's change. I fain would trace

Its brightness and its blackness."

Sketches of the Fair Sex, in All Parts of the World. To which are added rules for determining the precise figure, the degree of beauty, the habits, and the age of women, notwithstanding the aids and disguise of dress. · 第 5 / 88 题
