[OF THE CHIN.]
An advancing, projecting chin is always a declaration of energy. (See [pl. XX.]) When pointed, it often denotes craft. (See [pl. I.])
Should it, on the other hand, recede, it then indicates a character destitute of firmness.
When it is angular, it betokens a sensible mind, and a benevolent heart.
A flat chin announces coolness of temper. (See [pl. XXVII.])
A smooth, fleshy, double chin, is indicative of sensuality.
A small chin is characteristic of timidity.
A round, dimpled chin, is a sign of good nature.
