v2.c17.53
rounded and not hairy; my teeth are close-set; my temples, eyes, hands, feet, ankles, and thighs are well-proportioned, and have a fitting fulness. My fingers have gradually rounded nails, they are smooth and well-proportioned. My breasts show no gap between, swell up plumply, and have the nipples set deep; my navel is well sunk and (at the edges) raised up; my side and my breast are hard and well-filled. My colour is like the precious stone,¹ and the hairs on my body are soft. I stand firm on my twelve (the ten toes and the two soles). So am I called a woman with lucky bodily shapes" (vi, 48.7 ff.). Cp. K, iv, 20.32 ff.
