I said: "The law says: everything depends on the structure of the
soul and the mind. If soul and mind are noble, a body must be
considered beautiful, no matter how humped and misshapen it may be."
The lady ostentatiously lifted her dress and revealed, right up to
the top of her thigh, sheathed sumptuously in silk, wonderful legs,
that towered, like branches, from her ripe body.
At the same time the lady finally said: "You may be right, although
one might as easily argue the opposite. In any case, a person with
legs is totally different from one without them."
Then, striding proudly away, she left me sitting there.
