Sir Walter Elliot:
You may observe that one handsome face will be followed by thirty or five-and-thirty frights. Once, when I was standing in a shop in Bond Street, I counted eighty-seven women go by, one after the other, without there being a tolerable face among them. But then, it was a frosty morning, which scarcely one woman in a thousand can stand the test of. And as for the men, they are infinitely worse. The streets are full of scarecrows!
