In a typical Hindu beauty the skin is just dark enough to givo a rich, soft appearance to the complexion. The features are regular, the eyes mild and black, and shaded by long, silken lashes, the hands and feet are small and well formed, the demeanour is aodest, the manner is gentle, the voice low and sweet. There are fine-looking women among the puddle-class Hindus, as well as among the upper %on, and ev^n among the lower class the faces are often very pleasing.
