Anxiety calls for a double movement of the eyebrows: First, contract them; secondly, raise them.
Vitality is expressed by raising the outer part of the eyebrows. This accomplishment is very rare; but, then, it is not necessary.
Contraction of the lower eyelid expresses sensitiveness.
Lesson II.
The Head.
| The Head. | Concentric | Bent forward. |
| Normal | Upright. | |
| Excentric | Bent backward. |
| Concentro-concentric | Bent forward and inclined to one side (toward the person): Veneration. |
| Concentro-normal | Bent forward: Examination. |
| Concentro-excentric | Bent forward and inclined to the other side (from the person): Suspicion. |
| Normo-concentric | Inclined toward the person: Tenderness. |
| Normo-normal | Upright: Without expression. |
| Normo-excentric | Inclined from the person: Sensuality. |
| Excentro-concentric | Bent backward and inclined to one side (toward the person): Abandon. |
| Excentro-normal | Bent backward, straight: Exaltation, vehemence. |
| Excentro-excentric | Bent backward and inclined to the other side (from the person): Pride. |
It is the position of the eye that determines the expression of the head, for it is the direction of the eye that tells us on which side the object of veneration, suspicion, etc., is supposed to be. The shoulders should be observed here. They are the thermometer of passion; the stronger the emotion, the higher they should be raised.
