“… The beauty of the face consisteth in a large, square, well extended and cleere front, eye-browes well ranged, thin and subtile, the eye well diuided, cheerefull, sparkling: as for the colour I leaue it doubtfull, the nose leane, the mouth little, the lips coraline, the chinne short and dimpled, the cheekes somewhat rising and in the middle the pleasant gelasin, the eares round and well compact, the whole countenance with a liuely tincture white and vermilion. …”
