Essays on physiognomy; calculated to extend the knowledge and the love of mankind . uch you have ccea-? fion for, and, be it much or little, depend upon it you fhall have< it,— < Give me then—a milling.— « A milling!—There it is. * Had you aiked for fifty guineas, you mould have had them.* LECTURE IX. Exercises in patkognomy and physiognomy* exercise Heads in Profile.—See the Plates, WE fhall difcover, on a minute and feparate inveftigation ofthefe profiles, that confiderable undemanding is not proclaimed byone of them. This difiinguifhment is oppofed by the mouth, theeye, the forehead, or the chin, or by the general union. Everyone of the foreheads, but No. 12, feem to me charaaeriftic of in*telleftual imbecillity, and even the one excepted, is not either fuf-ficiently tenfe, nor fuificiently curved, in that part adjoining thenofe. This imbecillity has a decided charafter in the nofes io, 11,and 16. It is nearly as confpicuous in the profiles 4, 5, and 15. With refpeft to nofes 1, 2, 3. 6. 12, and 13, they are a littleabove mediocrity. ,.
