I SAY the human shape or face is so great, it must
never be made ridiculous;
I say for ornaments nothing outré can be allowed,
And that anything is most beautiful without orna-
ment,
And that exaggerations will be sternly revenged in
your own physiology; and in other persons' phys-
iology also;
And I say that clean-shaped children can be jetted and
conceiv'd only where natural forms prevail in
public, and the human face and form are never
caricatured;
And I say that genius need never more be turn'd to
romances,
(For facts properly told, how mean appear all ro-
mances.)

on the æsthetic, or intellectual,
And that criticism is great -- and that refinement is
greatest of all;
And I affirm now that the mind governs -- and that all
depends on the mind.

WITH one man or woman -- (no matter which one -- I
even pick out the lowest,)
With him or her I now illustrate the whole law;
I say that every right, in politics or what-not, shall be
