XX.—Type of Those Born Under Virgo.
Those born in Virgo are of the following
description: fair appearance, eyes not large, fascinating, dark,
compact
224
eyebrows,
cheerful, swimmers; they are, however, slight in frame,
225
beautiful in aspect, with hair prettily
adjusted, large forehead, prominent nose. The same by nature are
docile, moderate, intelligent, sportive, rational, slow to speak,
forming many plans; in regard of a favour, importunate;
226
gladly observing everything; and
well-disposed pupils, they master whatever they learn; moderate,
scorners, victims of unnatural lusts, companionable, of a noble soul,
despisers, careless in practical matters, attending to instruction,
more honourable in what concerns others than what relates to
themselves; as regards friendship, useful.

Or,
“straight, compact.”

Miller

measurement at the (same) age, and possess a body perfect and
erect.”
