THe
kindnes
whyche
,
I
haue
founde
at
youre
frendly
handes
,
ioynte
wyth
your
knowledge
and
loue
of
good
letters
,
hath
moued
me
to
dedicate
these
my
laboures
,
vnto
youre
mastershyp
:
whiche
I
haue
attempted
to
put
in
prynt
,
rather
to
shew
what
I
wyshe
to
bee
doen
,
than
what
I
can
doe
.
The
argumente
is
not
onely
plesante
but
also
necessarye
,
and
that
for
all
kyndes
of
men
to
be
skylled
in
.
And
that
ryghte
wel
knew
the
auncyente
Phylosophers
,
whiche
would
receyue
no
Skolers
nor
bye
any
seruauntes
,
whose
shape
answered
not
their
knowledge
in
thys
science
.
But
what
nede
I
declare
thys
vnto
you
,
who
know
it
already
muche
better
than
my selfe
:
wherfore
no
lenger
to
trouble
you
wyth
my
rude
letters
,
I
hartely
beseche
you
to
take
in
good
part
my
good
wyll
,
and
wyth
your
authoritie
to
protecte
my

Thus
I
pray

to
kepe

The
Preface
To
the
Reader
.
IF
it
be
true
(
gentle
Reader
)
that
the
chefe
point
in
knowledge
is
to
knowe
God
,
the
second
to
know
oure selfe
,
the
thyrde
(
whiche
is
also
the
firste
part
of
prudence
)
to
know
al
other
men
,
than
must
it
nedes
follow
that
such
menes
as
leade
vs
to
the
nerest
perceyuing
of
any
of
these
three
,
must
nedes
be
both
good
,
profitable
and
necessary
.
What
folly
is
than
in
those
heades
whiche
condemne
or
dispise
natural
Philosophy
,
whiche
as
Saincte
.
Paul
affirmeth
,
leodeth
vs
to
the
firste
,
and
as
Kyng
Salomon
sayeth
,
dryueth
vs
to
the
seconde
.
And
as
the
whole
consente
of
all
that
haue
been
learned
beareth
wytnes
,
doth
throughly
instructe
vs
in
the
thyrde
.
For
the
excellencye
of
the
creatures
as
heauen
(
whose
course
&
effectes
Arithmeticke
and
Astronomy
declare
)
and
earth
,
(
whose
compasse
,
scituacion
,
and
alteracion
Geometry
and
Phisicke
publysheth
)
cause
men
to
graunte
not
onely
the
excellency
but
also
the
almyghtynes
of
their
maker
and
ruler
.
The
vse
and
effectes
of
natural
reason
whose
trueth
and
pleasantnes
logicke
and
rethoricke
dooe
playnly
set
furth
,
teache
vs
how
we
differ
from
other
creatures
,
for
what
end
we
were
created
,
and
how
we
maye
behaue
vs
to
come
to
that
ende
:
for
about
thys
laste
poynte
morall
Philosophy
is
onely
occupied
,
teachyng
what
is
iuste
,
what
honeste
,
what
cumly
,
and
what
profitable
.
And
as
the
excellencye
of
the
creature
maketh
vs
knowe
the
creator
,
whose
name
be
blessed
for
euer
,
and
as
the
vse
of
Reason
in
vs
doth
cause
vs
to
knowe
our selues
:
so
doeth
the
effectes
and
wurkyng
of
nature
,
comprehended
by
reason
,
teache
vs
to
know
and
iudge
of
al
other
thynges
,
As
firste
of
the
elementes
and
of
their
powers
in
in
them selues
seuerally
vnnixed
,
secondlye
of
theyr
myxture
in
thynges
,
thirdlye
of
the
effectes
caused
through
their
mixtures
,
which
be
playnly
set
furth
in
Phisiognomie
,
that
is
to
saye
knowledge
of
bodyes
.
Thys
Phisiologie
is
learned
two
wayes
:
by
meditacion
or
by
apparence
.
Meditacyon
is
a
conceyuyng
in
the
mynde
of
suche
thynges
as
cannot
be
perceyueo
by
any
sence
,
as
the
substaunce
of
soules
,
spirites
,
and
vertues
.
Apparaunce
is
the
iudgemente
whiche
the
senses
haue
of
suche
thynges
as
are
obiected
agaynst
them
:
as
the
felyng
,
of
substaunces
:
the
hearynge
of
mouynges
,
the
tast
and
smelling
of
qualities
and
mixtures
,
the
syghte
,
of
forrmes
and
Colours
.
Whych
sences
although
they
be
all
excellente
in
theyr
kindes
for
vs
to
iudge
and
discerne
thinges
by
,
yet
the
chefest
truest
and
most
ready
is
the
syght
,
which
is
chiefly
occupyed
about
Phisiognomie
,
as
we
may
cal
it
in
englysh
,
body
skyl
,
or
the
knowledge
of
the
temperaunce
of
bodyes
by
theyr
shape
&
fourmes
,
Which
although
it
be
of
al
creatures
,
both
stones
,
plantes
,
verbes
,
fish
foule
,
beastes
and
men
,
whose
inward
prop
r●yes
and
difference
are
knowen
by
the
outwarde
shapes
:
yet
be
cause
that
of
all
the
rest
man
is
most
excellente
,
therfore
it
specially
belongeth
to
hym
.
And
of
hys
nature
the
Philosophers
haue
chefely
sought
,
&
that
because
man
is
not
onely
the
chefest
good
to
manne
,
but
also
the
chefest
euil
both
to
man
&
al
other
thinges
.
Which
causeth
Tully
in
hys
boke
de
natura
deorum
,
to
call
Reason
(
which
is
the
excellentest
creature
that
god
euer
made
)
the
wurst
of
al
other
creatures
:
because
that
onely
by
man
(
the
only
possessour
therof
)
al
kindes
of
iniquities
and
sinnes
agaynst
nature
are
diuised
,
and
committed
.
But
to
leaue
Tully
in
hys
errour
til
an
other
tyme
because
he
distinguisheth
not
lust
and
reason
,
but
attributeth
the
effectes
of
th
one
to
the
other
,
we
wyll
come
to
the
matter
concernyng
Phisiognomy
chefely
in
man
,
whiche
teacheth
the
thyrde
parte
of
wysdom
,
and
first
of
prudence
,
that
is
:
how
to
discerne
the
disposicions
of
al
men
by
their
fourme
and
shape
,
wherby
we
maye
knowe
whom
to
make
oure
frendes
and
familiers
,
whom
to
preserue
from
beyng
our
foes
,
&
whom
to
auoyde
as
daungerous
to
haue
to
doe
with
all
.
Al
these
poyntes
are
marked
by
nature
in
the
proporcion
and
liniamentes
of
mans
body
,
with
diuers
other
more
secrete
,
whiche
are
well
knowen
to
as
many
as
knowe
the
arte
,
and
specially
in
the
face
and
handes
,
whiche
as
it
should
seme
,
god
hath
made
open
and
vncouerable
because
al
men
mighte
at
all
tymes
see
and
perceyue
them
.
And
to
th
ende
no
man
shoulde
thynke
thys
incredible
(
as
the
grosse
heades
dooe
of
all
thynges
whiche
they
cannot
comprehende
)
I
wyll
counsell
them
by
thynges
more
euident
,
to
credit
such
as
be
more
obscure
,
yet
not
obscure
of
them selues
but
hidden
from
vs
for
lacke
of
searche
.
Can
not
we
knowe
by
a
mans
countenaunce
whan
he
is
merye
,
whan
sad
,
whan
angry
,
whan
fearfull
,
whan
ashamed
,
and
whan
shameles
?
and
that
by
newe
and
so
dayne
alteracions
of
the
visage
?
Doe
we
not
by
the
coloures
and
makyng
iudge
and
not
fayle
of
stomacke
and
properties
of
horses
,
dogges
,
Cockes
,
&
other
creatures
?
Doe
not
the
Phisicions
likewyse
iudge
the
temperamentes
,
crasis
,
and
diseases
of
the
body
by
the
colour
and
alteracion
of
the
qualities
and
quantyties
of
partes
?
And
how
are
all
these
thynges
knowen
but
by
consideryng
what
elemente
is
strongest
and
what
weakest
in
the
composicion
.
For
the
elementes
wurke
the
same
or
muche
lyke
effectes
in
composicions
of
bodyes
where
they
rule
,
as
they
haue
in
themselues
simply
,
and
so
cause
the
proporcyons
both
of
membres
and
liniamentes
,
and
bryng
furth
the
lyke
condicions
and
propertyes
.
Which
what
they
bee
,
and
how
they
differ
,
the
best
learned
me
from
tyme
to
time
haue
searched
,
noted
and
put
in
wrytyng
.
Wherin
as
they
are
to
be
commended
,
wyth
al
other
which
haue
followed
their
good
example
,
so
of
al
other
nacyons
I
am
forced
most
to
disprayse
myne
owne
country
men
,
whiche
haue
leaft
no
monumente
of
their
skil
therin
.
For
there
are
fewe
other
nacions
but
haue
in
theyr
own
tounge
diuerse
treatises
therof
set
furth
in
print
,
wheras
we
(
so
farre
as
I
haue
seen
)
,
haue
neuer
a
worde
therof
.
And
although
I
knowe
that
no
begynnynges
can
lacke
disprayse
,
yet
to
set
other
on
wurke
therin
,
I
haue
wyth
blynde
bayarde
aduentured
to
turne
into
Inglish
,
that
whiche
I
haue
founde
in
other
tounges
,
wrytten
by
the
best
learned
in
that
arte
as
Hermes
,
Aristotle
,
Rasis
,
Formica
,
Locius
,
Philemon
,
Palemon
,
Conciliator
and
other
,
wishing
that
al
men
at
vacant
tymes
myghte
occupye
theyr
wittes
therin
.
And
one
thyng
I
warne
(
as
I
my selfe
am
warned
)
not
to
Judge
by
any
one
part
alone
,
but
by
all
(
or
at
the
least
)
by
many
together
:
so
shall
we
be
sure
not
to
bee
deceiued
.
I
meane
we
shall
not
bee
deceyued
to
know
the
trueth
of
the
naturall
disposicion
,
and
yet
we
maye
fayle
of
the
mans
condicions
,
whiche
Socrates
hymselfe
well
declared
.
For
whan
he
with
hys
disciples
about
hym
,
asked
of
a
Phisiognomer
what
condicions
he
perceyued
to
be
in
hym
,
Ah
Socrates
(
quoth
the
Phisiognomer
)
thou
art
a
great
leachour
,
a
craftye
felow
,
subtyle
,
and
geuen
to
all
wyckednes
.
Thys
answereso
vexed
Socrates
Scolets
,
who
know
the
contrary
to
be
most
true
,
that
they
rayled
at
the
Phisiognomer
,
and
woulde
wyth
strypes
haue
recompensed
hys
paynes
,
had
not
Socrates
stayed
them
.
For
it
is
all
true
that
he
sayeth
(
quoth
Socrates
)
for
such
I
am
by
nature
,
but
I
haue
(
as
al
other
men
may
haue
if
they
wyl
)
a
reason
and
grace
that
ruleth
about
nature
.
By
this
it
is
euident
that
reason
and
grace
may
brydle
nature
or
turne
the
prouocacions
therof
vnto
goodnes
.
For
the
cholericke
or
irefull
man
maye
eyther
by
grace
represse
hys
lust
,
or
els
vse
it
well
in
correctyng
of
vices
.
The
malicious
man
maye
by
grace
asswage
hys
lust
,
or
els
turne
it
agaynst
the
wycked
and
so
furth
of
al
other
natural
inclinacions
.
And
therfore
although
a
man
may
perfitly
by
Phisiognomy
declare
the
natural
inclinacions
of
any
man
,
y●
may
he
not
perfectly
iudge
hym
except
he
know
whether
he
haue
grace
or
no.
And
the
lacke
of
thys
consi●raunce
hath
brought
thys
science
to
be
thought
false
because
grace
brydeleth
or
vseth
wel
the
naturall
inclinations
of
man
.
Thys
well
remembred
,
the
book
maye
be
safely
read
,
and
thou
(
good
Reader
)
therby
mayst
infallibly
iudge
the
state
and
condicions
of
any
manne
.
For
the
better
knowledge
wherof
,
I
entende
shortly
to
sette
furth
palmestrye
,
In
the
meane
ryme
I
beseche
thee
to
take
in
good
parte
thys
my
rude
endeuours
.

HEre
Aristotle
dothe
Physiognomate
by
the
voice
,
affirming
a
doble
knowledge
,
after
the
doble
diposition
of
the
voyce
:
for
sayeth
he
,
the
voyce
maye
be
heauye
and
dyscensed
,
or
hyghe
,
that
is
greate
,
to
a
basse
orgayne
pype
:
and
suche
a
voyce
(
saieth
he
)
declareth
that
manne
to
bee
stronge
:
or
yf
it
maye
bee
small
and
lowe
that
is
not
greate
,
but
softe
,
whiche
declareth
suche
a
parsone
to
be
ferfull
:
And
the
causes
of
these
sygnifycationes
be
taken
by
the
complextion
or
qualitie
of
the
harte
,
and
lunges
,
in

of

:
For

Wherefore

as
the

and
the

the

that
the
fortitude
of
the
voyce
dothe
ensewe
lyke
the
largenes
of

,
and

declareth
the
hotnes
of

of

,
and
the
causeis
,
that
the
fortytude
of

declareth

The

in

sayth
also
,
that
they
which

Iniurious

And

And

speake

compared

to

:
they

shal
appeare

bringing

First
Cocles
sayeth

The

for
the
contrary
cause
,
he

The

vnder

Ageyne
the
voyce
greate
,
to
bee
iracundious
,
peruerce
and
of
an
euyll
nature
,
and
the
reason
is
,
for
the
vntemperate
caliditie
.
He
that
speaketh
hastely
,
hauing
a
shril

,
declareth

,

perauenture
wyth
moystnes

.
And
he
also
whych
hathe
a
heauy
voyce
,
is
seruaunt
to
his
proper
belly
:
the
reason
is
,
because
the
voyce
heauye
,
procedeth
of
the
debylitie
of
the
vertue
,
which
can
not
breathe

that
the

cannot
be
applyed
in

nor

.
They
that
speake

by
the
commotion
of

:
be
manlye
,
vnapte
to
bee
taught

to

,

hardy
,
compared
to
the

.
They
which
haue

be
peasable
,
and
ioyous
or
merie
:
and
certaine
of
these
parsones
,
be
iuste
and
affable
manered
.
And
they
which
speake
and
sounde
theyr
wordes
thorough
the
nosethrelles
,
be
babblers
,
lyars
,
malycious
,

of

gyue

expresse
the
magnytude

fro

The

by

of

it

The

And

The

Of
the
nature
of
the
bearde
.
The.
xxvi
.
chapter
.
THe
bearde
in
the
masculyne
,
groweth
after
fourten
yeares
,
by
little
and
litle
,
fro
Daye
to
daye
,
and
then
after
spryng
the
thyghes
fast
:
and
note
,
that
suche
heare
soryngeth
of
the
superfluitie
of
meate
,
proceding
thorow
the
fumosities
:
which
superascende
vnto
the
partes
of
the
chekes
or
Jawes
as
a
fume
passing
oute
of
the
holes
or
chinkes
of
an
ouen
,
or
fornace
,
vntyl
the
wayes
or
passages
be
stopped
,
that
they
may
no
more
ascende
,
and
so
lyke
issewe
oute
the
heares
in
man
,
whiche
make
the
bearde
:
The
coloure
of
the
bearde
somtyme
,
expresseth
the
qualities
,
and
quantities
of
the
humours
,
but
yet
Cocles
neuer
saw
a
bearde
in
coloure
lyke
to
Juorye
,
because
the
phlegmaticke
humour
is
not
mightye
to
generate
heares
in
coloure
lyke
,
for
the
lacke
of
caliditie
,
eleuatyng
the
matter
congruente
to
the
generacion
of
heares
.
Some
maye
argue
,
and
say
,
that
we
see
somtyme
women
haue
beardes
or
bearded
,
&
yet
they
be
of
a
phlegmaticke
complexcion
:
Thys
hapneth
sayth
Cocles
because
the
humors
be
so
subtill
,
that
by
nature
they
be
hote
,
that
of
them
also
spryng
heares
somtyme
on
the
cheakes
or
Jawes
,
and
properly
about
the
mouth
where
the
more
heate
aboundeth
:
and
thys
woman
is
named
bearded
,
vnderstande
that
suche
a
woman
is
very
luxuriouse
,
thorow
her
hote
and
moist
complexcion
,
and
that
she
is
of
a
strong
nature
,
and
virill
or
manly
condicioned
:
but
the
woman
sufficiently
naked
and
bare
of
heare
,
especially
about
the
mouth
▪
(
after
phisiognomie
)
is
named
to
be
of
a
goód
complexcyon
,
that
is
fearfull
,
chaste
,
shamefast
,
weake
,
gentil
,
and
obedient
for
the
more
parte
:
but
the
bearded
women
be
contrary
,
as
aboue
appeareth
:
here
riseth
a
doute
,
why
women
haue
no
beardes
as
wel
as
men
.
To
thys
Dont
maye
be
aunswered
,
when
it
is
demaunded
,
why
men
haue
beardes
and
not
wemen
,
that
thys
cause
may
be
by
the
especiall
workyng
and
by
the
materiall
and
finall
cause
,
because
it
is
as
an
ornamente
to
the
man
.
Note
that
in
euery
kynd
,
the
male
is
bewtifuller
than
the
female
,
and
the
bearde
is
also
as
a
defensione
to
the
Jawes
,
the
which
the
woman
nedeth
not
so
much
as
the
man
,
because
the
fences
and
fealyng
is
stronger
or
mightier
in
men
,
wherby
they
maye
the
better
endure
to
goe
bare
headed
,
and
barefoted
in
the
sharpe
winter
withoute
harme
to
them
,
whiche
very
fewe
wemen
can
doe
:
&
vnderstand
also
▪
that
al
wemen
in
a
maner
haue
no
beardes
:
&
why
because
al
the
humours
in
which
mans
bearde
is
engrēdred
,
in
women
runneth
to
the
mensture
the
whiche
is
in
them
,
by
a
certayne
passage
,
and
runnynge
,
after
the
age
,
or
increase
and
decrease
of
the
Mone
:
as
sumtyme
once
and
twyse
in
the
moneth
:
whose
issue
out
is
named
to
be
the
fluxe
,
or
superfluous
fume
,
but
thys
runneth
,
when
the
woman
is
not
wyth
chylde
,
and
in
them
that
be
past
.
xii
.
yeares
older
and
this
menstrue
somtyme
in
women
is
altered
and
chaunged
to
mylke
in
the
breastes
or
pappes
.
By
the
aforesayde
appeareth
,
that
the
thycknes
of
the
beard
,
and
muche
hear
:
nes
vniuersallye
,
is
iudged
of
the
substaunciall
heate
,
and
moysture
,
and
of
the
naturall
vygorte
or
strengthe
.
Here
it
maye
be
sayed
,
that
men
chyldren
be
hote
,
and
moyste
,
and
yet
be
not
bearded
:
and
the
reason
is
because
the
fumositie
&
superfluitie
,
which
is
the
matter
of
the
heares
of
the
head
and
elles
wheare
,
runneth
to
the
nurishinge
and
increasinge
of
them
as
all
these
very
well
appere
by
Constantine
.
Wherfore
how
much
the
more
heate
,
and
so
much
the
more
aboundauncie
of
heare
on
the
head
:
therfore
beware
of
them
which
haue
to
much
heare
on
the
head
,
especially
when
he
is
of
an
aduste
complextion
.
Beware
of
them
espetially
,
whiche
haue
a
redde
bearde
,
because
they
represent
the
aboundauncie
of
adustion
and
caliditie
,
and
such
be
luxurious
,
deceauers
,
and
stars
,
and
in
whome
the
principall
heape
of
vices
teste
.
Whose
bearde
is
comlye
,
and
well
fashioned
:
declareth
that
manne
to
be
of
a
good
nature
,
and
of
a
reasonable
condition
▪
and
congruente
to
all
thynges
,
and
manered
after
his
bringing
vp
:
but
in
the
contrary
maner
it
is
of
them
,
whiche
haue
the
bearde
yll
fashioned
,
as
appereth
in
gealded
parsones
,
whiche
after
they
haue
loste
bothe
theyr
testycles
,
be
very
much
chaunged
fro
the
nature
of
menne
,
into
the
nature
of
women
,
as
Arystotle
sayth
.
Undrestande
,
that
Cocles
sawe
manye
whych
wearing
longe
beardes
,
came
to
a
melancholicke
madnes
,
or
folyshnes
.
And
Cocles
sawe
also
,
manye
parsones
with
him
,
that
after
the
ful
growth
of
theyr
longe
beardes
,
wer
throwen
headlonge
into
myseries
,
and
kepte
vnder
:
and
also
prynces
hauing
the
lyke
beardes
,
dryuen
out
of
theyr
bomynyons
:
and
of
the
bearde
whiche
cometh
soone
horie
,
he
pronounceth
the
lyke
▪
because
theyr
nature
draweth
nere
to
the
feminine
.

Ptholomie

that

when

paucitie

The

be
stronge

lykened
to
the
masculyne
kynde
(
after
the
maners
of
the
minde
he
vndrestandeth
)
because
the
male
in
his
kinde
,
hath
a
great
necke
,
and
liuelie
:
The
necke
meane
,
betwene
longe

declareth
a
hote
complexion
,
&
boldnes
.
The
necke
long

and
slendre

lykened
to
the
femynine
kynde
:
when
the
necke
is
greate
&
lyueliy
,
as
I
haue
aboue
said
argueth
fortitude
of

,
&
by
the

,
caliditie
of
the
harte
,
like
as
there
be

in

The
necke
great
by
fleshines
,
and
not
by
reason
of
the
magnitude
of
the
sinowes
,
and
bones
,
and
as
.
Rasys
addeth
to
,
stiffe
and
strong
,
be
Iracundiouse
:
and
likened
to
the
apparante
congruencie
in
Irefull
bulles
chafed
,
whiche
then
inspeciall
haue
suche
a

of

as
Rasis
addeth

be
also
hasty
in
their
doynges
.
The
necke
sufficiently
bygge

not
by

of

and
congruente
long

,
be
hardy
,
compared
to
the
lion
,
and
thys
is
especiallye
trewe
,
when
the

necke
be
proporcioned
so
,
that
it
is
also
of
a
meane
magnitude

as
the

The

me

the
head
,
if
it

be
of

bygnes
.

the

somwhat
greate

the
goodnes
of
the
complexcyon
and
disposicion
,
but
if
the
head
shal
be
small
,
and
necke
greate
,
declareth
aboundaunce
of

,
and
hys
superfluousnes
,
and
the
lacke
also
of
the
informatyue
vertue
and
suche
a

as
it
is
sayd
is
fatigated
,
by
muche
payne

The
necke
very
long
,
and

,
be
fearefull
,

the
harte

but
yet
that
man
whiche
hath
assender

long
necke
,
bearyng
it
vp

,
is
not
,
so
muche
feareful
,
as
the
hart
.
The
necke
very
shorte
be
deceitfull
and
wyly
begilers
or
full
of
wyles
,
compared
to
the
wolfe
.
And
thys
signe
is
taken
,
by
the
manēr
apparante
in
men
,

,
for
men
entending
to
goe
closely
in
a

not

,
drawe

considered
in

when

Some

also
that

and
the

slender

slendre

wherefore
then

hollowe

declareth
debilitie
of

,
after

And

wytnesseth

The

The

Alexander

The

The

The

Of

.
The.

Chapter
.
THe
lion
is
not
alonely
knowen
strong
but
also
bold
by
the
breast
,
as
they
especially
Judge
which
wryte
of
the
natures
of
beastes
:
euen
lyke
by
that
conjecture
we
name
that
man
to
be
strong
and
bold
whiche
hath
the
brest
well
bearyng
out
,
and
to
be
luxuriouse
,
malepert
,
or
wanton
in
asking
,
or
yl
tonged
,
lasciuiouse
of
talke
,
haute
or
proude
,
Iracundiouse
,
and
somwhat
spatyng
.
The
breast
bushie
of
heare
,
and
in
the
selyng
hote
,
declareth
that
man
to
be
cholerick
with
hys
qualitie
,
that
is
to
be
bolde
,
obstynate
,
and
muche
Ireful
.
The
breast
naked
and
bare
of
heare
,
declareth
that
parson
to
be
colde
,
and
Phlegmaticke
of
nature
,
and
inqualitie
feareful
,
and
slowe
.
The
breaste
vnequallye
hounchyng
ht●h
oute
:
on
the
ton
parte
,
we
fynde
such
parsons
to
be
marcialies
,
wiely
begilers
,
&
prone
to
al
wickednes
,
to
be
naturally
vayne
or
liars
,
and
hipocrites
.
Euen
so
they
whiche
be
red
on
the
breaste
vp
to
the
throte
we
fynde
to
be
Irefull
,
contencyouse
,
presumptuouse
,
haute
or
arrogante
,
inconstante
,
but
yet
fearefull
.
And
that
breast
we
Judge
most
comly
,
which
is
meanely
fylled
wyth
fleshe
,
and
meanelye
heary
,
for
thys
declareth
that
person
to
be
discret
,
prudente
,
and
of
a
good
nature
.
They
whiche
be
well
ribbed
&
strong
after
lyfe
,
be
compared
to
the
masculyne
kid
.
And
they
which
be
weake
&
smal
ribbed
,
after
nature
be
likened
to
the
feminine
kynde
:
&
they
which
he
compassed
aboute
the
ribbes
with
fleashe
bearyng
out
lyke
as
they
were
blowen
:
declare
those
persons
to
be
talkatyue
,
and
folyshe
talkers
,
compared
to
the
oxe
&
frogge
.
Note
also
that
the
ribbes
of
the
feminine
kind
be
narrowe
and
smal
,
and
the
great
guttes
also
for
the
lacke
of
natural
heate
.
And

Of

Phisiognomy
of

.
The
.xxxiiii.
Capter
.
FOr
as
much
as
hetherto
I
haue
vsed
an
ordre
in
the
phisiognomatyng
of
the
membres
,
and
that
by
the
handes
may
diuerse●ye
be
noted
,
I
wyll
therfore
speake
somwhat
therof
.
And
first
as
Aristotle
sayth
,
the
greatnesse
and
shortnesse
of
the
fingers
declareth
paucitie
of
matter
,
and
a
Phlegmaticke
compleccyon
and
that
nature
maye
not
direcie
,
of
whych
the
spirites
be
not
lyke
to
nature
,
and
then
they
bee
folysh
:
and
the
lyke
affirmeth
Rasis
,
Consiliator
,
and
the
Philosopher
Ptholomie
.
Formica
worthely
saith
that
the
greatnes
of
the
hande
,
commeth
somtyme
by
much
laboure
,
and
therfore
they
which
laboure
much
haue
great
handes
.
And
somtyme
it
commeth
by
nature
and
then
by
the
grennes
of
the
bones
and
sinewes
or
muscles
,
such
a
person
whether
it
be
man
or
woman
,
be
naturally
strong
,
and
sometyme
also
it
proceadeth
by
the
grossenes
of
the
fleshe
,
and
then
suche
be
drunkardes
,
luxuriouse
and
naturallye
vile
.
Also
he
whiche
hath
greate
handes
and
the
fyngers
at
the
toppes
sharpe
or
small
such
a
parson
is
couetouse
,
&
false
:
vnderstande
also
,
that
the
fore fynger
,
middle
fynger
,
ryng
fynger
,
and
eare
fynger
,
haue
three
Jointes
a
pece
.
If
therfore
,
in
eache
Joynte
,
shall
bee
but
one
lyne
,
he
shall
dye
sodeynly
:
but
if
there
shall
bee
two
lynes
in
eache
Joynte
equall
distante
,
declare
a
happye
signe
,
and
to
be
an
honest
faythfull
man
.
And
if
in
the
middle
Joynte
of
eache
finger
,
shal
be
but
one
lyne
,
and
in
the
other
Joyntes
two
,
such
a
person
shall
s●ese
one
of
hys
eien
,
and
these
hitherto
Formica
.
Ptolomie
sayeth
that
the
handes
greate
,
and
thycke
skinned
,
declareth
that
manne
to
be
disquieted
in
mynde
.
Rasys
sayeth
,
the
handes
lyght
and
subtyll
or
thinne
declare
muche
wysdom
,
and
a
good
perfyt
vnderstandyng
,
and
subtilnes
of
the
humours
.
The
handes
slendre
and
very
long
,
declare
tirannye
,
and
foolyshnes
.
Ptholomie
the
Philosopher
sayeth
,
that
the
handes
of
diuerse
colours
,
declare
that
man
to
be
luxuriouse
or
cruell
.
The
fyngers
also
ouer
thynne
,
declare
foolyshnes
.
Formica
sayeth
that
he
whiche
hath
the
fyngers
at
the
toppe
brode
,
suche
a
person
is
faythfull
,
&
a
good
companion
.
The
table
in
the
hande
large
,
and
the
fyngers
slendre
,
that
is
long
,
suche
a
person
is
subtyll
in
a
naturall
worke
,
and
geuen
to
playe
on
Instrumentes
.
The
table
in
the
hande
small
or
narrowe
,
and
the
fyngers
greate
,
suche
a
person
is
geuen
to
wryte
wel
or
perfitlye
.
And
suche
a
person
shall
dye
of
an
apostume
.
He
which
hath
the
handes
not
ouer
greate
,
nor
ouer
smal
,
but
wel
proporcioned
to
hys
body
,
suche
a
person
is
more
congruente
in
all
hys
mischancis
or
accidentes
.
The
handes
small
,
suche
a
person
is
feminine
,
in
hys
doynges
,
and
is
also
vnsaciable
,
and
hateful
,
and
now
loueth
,
and
now
hateth
,
and
seldome
or
neuer
there
is
any
confydence
to
be
had
in
hym
.
He
whiche
hath
greate
and
fatte
handes
,
such
hath
a
dull
wytte
.
And
the
woman
hauing
such
handes
,
desyreth
much
veneriouse
acte
.
He
whiche
hath
slendre
handes
,
is
nimble
and
ready
in
hys
doynges
,
and
muche
desireth
women
.
The
fyngers
hollow
,
and
ill
fashioned
,
and
not
con●oyning
wel
together
,
is
an
euil
person
,
talking
larger
lier
then
he
wyll
doe
,
and
full
of
vntrouth
.
He
whych
hath
the
fyngers
segregate
,
and
not
lying
strayt
oute
,
declareth
miserye
,
and
pouertie
.
And
the
reason
of
thys
is
,
for
the
improporcion
,
whiche
presupposeth
not
there
a
good
and
perfyt
vnderstandyng
,
but
an
euyll
,
and
inordinate
.
The
fyngers
smal
,
declare
that
person
to
be
a
foole
,
a
dullarde
,
and
enuyouse
.
Morbeth
the
cardinall
in
hys
chyromancye
sayeth
that
the
fyngers
long
,
and
thynne
,
and
well
proporcyoned
together
:
declare
a
good
wytte
,
and
especyally
in
handy
craftes
.
And
it

Certayne

declare
that

an

of

and
the

A

that
the

,
declare
that
manne
to
be
a
Jeaster
,
and
gluttenouse
feader

And
the
cause
of
thys
is
,
that
the
ende
of

thorough

,
and
bendeth

is

Joynt
of
the

,
declareth
that

assuredly
to

,
whiche
Cocles
very
often
founde
trewe
.
And
if
the

:
declare
enuie

,
and
suche
be

But
when

contrary
wyse
,
If
the

towardes
the
fyngers
,
and
the
fyngers
towarde
the

enclyne
,
declare
malicousnes
,
and
couetousnes
.
He
whiche
of
a

or
customably
,
holdeth
the
hande
●●rayghte
oute
,
and
the

lyke
extensed

,
declareth
that

fearefull
,
and
vayne
.
He
whiche
alwaye
beareth
the
hande
closse
shut
,
declareth
to
be
vn●itifull
or
violente
,
and
Iracundiouse
.
The

small

in

declare
hym
to

,
If

,
declare

He

,
declareth
to
be
eloquent
enuyouse

Certayne
saye
(
as
Hermes
)
that
the
tremblyng
or
quaueryng
of
the
handes
,
in
a
healthfull
younge
man
,
declareth
to
be
sone
and
lyghtly
angry
or
moued
to
ire
.
And
this
procedeth
by
great
heat
,
and
commocion
of
the
spirites
But
if
the
tremblyng
be
very
strong
or
faste
,
it
is
a
token
of
a
viciouse
complexcion
,
and
that
suche
a

wil
be

is
angry
for
a
trifflyng
cause
,
melancholyke
,
desiryng
dyuerse
thynges

and
couetouse

enuiouse
.
The

And
if
it
be
contrary
,
contrary
Judge
.
The
fyngers
in
what
fourme
they
be
,
wyth
the
Joites
grosse
,
declare
misery
&
misfortune
as
Cocles
hath
very
often
noted
it
.
Albertus
and
Conciliator
says
,
that
when
the
fingers
be
so
wel
filled
with
fleashe
,
and
perfyt
rounde
,
that
holdyng
them
vp
thou
cannot
see
the
element
thorow
them
,
declare
that
man
to
be
couetouse
,
and
enuyouse
:
And
if
the
fingers
rightly
bende
towardes
the
backe
of
the
hand
especially
if
they
be
thynne
,
declare
that
man
to
be
vniust
,
subtyll
,
and
ingeniouse
.
And
he
which
of
a
custome
when
he
walketh
,
holdeth
or
beareth
the
thombe
thruste
within
the
other
fingers
:
declareth
to
be
couetouse
as
Cocles
noted
thesame
in
a
countrey
man
of
his
.
The
fingers
also
long
declare
the
eares
of
the
lyuer
to
be
long
,
and
the
magnytude
of
the
fyngers
,
declareth
the
magnitude
of
the
eares
of
the
lyuer
.
And
the
smalnes
of
the
fingers
,
declare
the
smalnes
of
the
eares
of
the
lyuer
.
If
any
haue
ruddy
handes
,
whether
it
be
manne
,
or
woman
,
declareth
that
person
to
bee
sanguine
and
luxuriouse
,
as
Formica
sayth
:
Ptholomye
sayeth
that
he
whiche
hath
the
vpper
ioyntes
of
the
fyngers
grosse
and
bendyng
or
turnyng
vp
,
suche
if
they
shal
be
then
ryche
,
in
countinuaunce
of
tyme
after
shal
be
poore
or
by
some
other
infortune
they
shal
be
hyndered
:
further
he
sayeth
,
hauyng
the
handes
croked
in

,
declare
hym
to
dye
a
violente
death
:
These

OUr

what
eche

Judge

Fyrste

prudent

of
a

studyouse
,
warye
,
and
somtyme
hardlye
fortunated

The
bellye
leane
,
and
thynne
,
declare
a
hote
and
cholerycke
complexcyon
,
and
often
tymes
also
a
melancholyke
complexcyon
.
As
they
for
the
more

,
whiche
haue

and
corpulente
beliyes
,
and
yet
very
wytty

and
thys
by

He

aboute
the
bellye
,
and
that
the
bellye
beare
not
muche

Judged

He
commonly

:
And
so
long
as

Aristotle

folyshe

but
the

declare

of
a

▪
Aristotle

The

The

thys

They

The

The

Further

wyth

declareth

But

Certain

Certayne
of
the
Philosophers
admonishe

whiche
haue

backebytyng
,
and

.
The
haunches
expresse
the
lyke
,
in
maner
of
the
former
:
for
if
the
haunches
be
fleash
,
and

,
and
that
the
legges
,
downe
to
the
fete
be
also
fleashy
:
declare
boldnes
,
and
strength
.
He
whyche
hath
bony
haunches
so
that
the
bones

oute
and
well
sinewed
:
in
such
maner
that
the
haunches
be
great
by
especialler
cause
of
the
bones
and
sinewes
,
them
of
ouer
much
fleashines
:
declare
that
man
to
be
strong
,
&
bold
.
Rasis
also
sayeth
that
when
the
bones
of
the
haunches
shal
beare
out
:
declare
boldnes
.
And
thys
Rasis
meaneth
,
when
the
haunches
bee
well
brawned
and
bendyng
to
the
siluester
parte
,
whiche
is
a
notyse
of
fortytude
,
and
suche
runne
quicke
and
swiftly
,
and
be
also
great
iourn●ers
:
as
Cocles
hath
noted
it
.
Mthell
the
Scot
sayeth
,
that
the
haunches
wel
brawned
,
declare
that
man
to
be
strong
,
hardy
,
and
no
lesse
proud
:
as
appeareth
in
the
stone
horse
,
cocke
,
and
falcon
.
Also
he
sayth
,
that
hauyng
the
haunches
bony
,
but
yet
in
such
wyse
that
the
bones
be
not
great
&
much
fleashy
,
wyth
the
smaines
of
the
synewes
:
such
be
weake
referred

the
feminine
kynde
.
To
thys
Rasys
sayeth
,
that
when
the
haunches
beare
oute
throughe
muche
fleashe
:
declare
debi●itye
of
strength
,
and
loosenes
of
the
members
.
The
hippe
or
huckell
bones
tendynge
outwarde
(
as
Consi●ator
sayth
)
declare
vrillitie
and
fortitude
:
excepte
effiminate
fleashines
happen
to
hynder
the
same
.
The
siendernes
or
smalnes
of
them
:
declareth
that
man
to
be
a
louer
of
women
and
to
be
feareful
,
wyth
weakenes
of
the
bodye
.
The
shankes
well
sinowed
,
strong
brawned
or
muscled
and
greate
,
not
by
reason
of
the
fleashines
,
but
rather
by
reason
of
the
greatnes
of
the
bones
,
and
sinewes
:
declare
that
manne
to
be
strong
after
iyfe
,
referred
to
the
masculyne
kynde
.
The
shankes
thynne
or
leane
,
and
sufficiently
synowed
:
declare
that
person
to
be
luxuryouse
,
lyght
,
and
vnstable
in
hys
mouinges
:
and
thys
notyse
is
taken
by
byrdes
hauyng
the
lyke
shankes
.
Whiche
because
they
be
light
after
nature
,
&
vnstable
,
haue
lytle
of
the
terrestrial
substaunce
or
grauity
,
but
much
of
the
Aeriall
lyghtnes
.
The
shankes
leane
wythout
the
sufficiencie
of
sinewes
,
declare
that
man
to
be
feareful
,
as
cociliator
affirmeth
.
The
shankes
ouer
gret
,
by
reason
of
ouer
much
fleashines
,
and
as
it
were
indistincte
,
that
is
with
equalitie
or
all
a
lyke
,
so
that
aboute
the
ancles
they
be
fleashye
and
fatte
,
as
women
be
,
be
named
weake
,
and
vnshamefaste
,
as
appereth
aboue
,
by
the
signes
incensible
.
Whan
the
grosnes
or
fleshines
shal
be
aboute
the
ancles
,
declare
that
man
to
be
grosse
and
folysh
of
nature
,
as
Rasys
sayeth
.
And
Aristotle
wryttyng
to
Alexander
sayth
,
that
the
thynnes
or
leanes
of
the
shankes
declareth
that
man
to
be
Ignoraunte
or
simple
,
And
the
greatnes
of
them
,
declareth
that
man
to
be
bolde
,
and
strong
.
The
shankes
all
a
lyke
,
as
they
were
swollen
downe
to
the
ancles
of
some
dysease
,
declare
a
fylthy
intemperamente
.
The
shankes
softe
in
fleashe
,
be
signes
of
a
feminine
nature
.
The
shankes
leane
,
and
sufficiently
synewed
,
and
roughe
(
after
Aristotle
)
declare
an
ardencye
to
venerouse
acte
:
For
that
their
nutrimentall
matter
,
is
altered
into
sperma
in
them
,
and
lykened
to
byrdes
.
The
shankes
superfluouse
,
and
indistincte
or
yll
fashioned
,
declare
that
man
to
be
odible
,
and
vnshamfaste
.
Note
also
that
the
shankes
very
hearye
,

Chapter

WE
maye
here
somwhat
Judge
of
mans
stature
.
And
first
for
an
example
we
read
in
the
historyes
of
one
Maximinus
Emperoure
,
whiche
was
a
man
of
a
huge
parsonage
,
and
stature
,
and
yet
named
or
reasoned
for
a
sole
.
Of
whom
arose
thys
prouerbe
.
(
Climacis
egiptia
,
et
Caliga
Maximini
)
whiche
prouerbe
brieflye
to
saye
,
is
applyed
to
suche

be
of
huge
stature
&
parsonage
,
hauyng
eun
condicions
or
properties
,
&
that
for
their
maners
,
had
in
contempt
of
al
men
.
But
what
nedeth
to
recite
thys
,
seeing
we
see
euery
where
(
sayth
Indagines
)
that
suche

be
of
so
huge

straunge

be
not
of
