APPENDIX TO the CHAPITRE III

N 1. Ovide, _Art to like ( love ? ) _, liv. II. - « In the bed, the lovers will not keep ( guard ? ) the immovable hands; the fingers will know how to exercise in the mysterious asylum where the love likes penetrating in secret.

« When you will have found these places which a woman likes feeling ( smelling ? ) getting ( touching ? ), which a foolish chastity does not prevent you from carrying ( wearing ? ) the hand there.

« You will see shining in the eyes one motive ( mobile ? ) light, as the beams ( shelves ? ) of the sun are reflected in the crystal clear wave.

« She ( it ? ) will make complaints listen, pleasant words, sighs of love, soft groans. »

N 2. - « scratches with nails are unhealthy things, especially in the very warm countries, as India, where wounds are cured with difficulty. We know that the unguique acid contained in the horn of the nail is a poison of the most violent. It is enough to grate the nail with strong dose, in a drink, so that she ( it ? ) becomes mortal. According to some authors, it was as well that exiled Thémistocle committed suicide.
