[OF THE NOSE.]
The nose is not a feature capable of conveying much expression; yet its form and relative position, in respect of other parts of the face, furnish some characteristics.
An aquiline nose designates an imperious temper, and ardent passions. (See [pl. XXV.])
A nose, the ridge of which is large, denotes a mind endowed with qualities of a high order. (See [pl. VII.])
When the sides of the nose are flexible, and perfectly disconnected, it betrays a proneness to sensuality.
