Lane adds a more minute analysis from an unknown author quoted by El-Ishákee: "Four things in a woman should be _black_--the hair of the head, the eyebrows, the eyelashes, and the dark part of the eyes; four _white_--the complexion of the skin, the white of the eyes, the teeth, and the legs; four _red_--the tongue, the lips, the middle of the cheeks, and the gums; four _round_--the head, the neck, the forearms, and the ankles; four _long_--the back, the fingers, the arms, and the legs; four _wide_--the forehead, the eyes, the bosom, and the hips; four _fine_--the eyebrows, the nose, the lips, and the fingers; four _thick_--the lower part of the back, the thighs, the calves of the legs, and the knees; four _small_--the ears, the breasts, the hands, and the feet." (E.W. Lane, _Arabian Society in the Middle Ages_, 1883, pp. 214-216.) A Persian treatise on the figurative terms relating to beauty shows that the hair should be black, abundant, and wavy, the eyebrows dark and arched. The eyelashes also must be dark, and like arrows from the bow of the eyebrows. There is, however, no insistence on the blackness of the eyes. We hear of four varieties of eye: the dark-gray eye (or narcissus eye); the narrow, elongated eye of Turkish beauties; the languishing, or love-intoxicated, eye; and the wine-colored eye. Much stress is laid on the quality of brilliancy. The face is sometimes described as brown, but more especially as white and rosy. There are many references to the down on the lips, which is described as greenish (sometimes bluish) and compared to herbage. This down and that on the cheeks and the stray hairs near the ears were regarded as very great beauties. A beauty spot on the chin, cheek, or elsewhere was also greatly admired, and evoked many poetic comparisons. The mouth must be very small. In stature a beautiful woman must be tall and erect, like the cypress or the maritime pine. While the Arabs admired the rosiness of the legs and thighs, the Persians insisted on white legs and compared them to silver and crystal. (_Anis El-Ochchâq_, by Shereef-Eddin Romi, translated by Huart, _Bibliothèque de l'Ecole des Hautes Etudes_, Paris, fasc. 25, 1875.) In the story of Kamaralzaman in the _Arabian Nights_ El-Sett Budur is thus described: "Her hair is so brown that it is blacker than the separation of friends. And when it is arrayed in three tresses that reach to her feet I seem to see three nights at once. "Her face is as white as the day on which friends meet again. If I look on it at the time of the full moon I see two moons at once. "Her cheeks are formed of an anemone divided into two corollas; they have the purple tinge of wine, and her nose is straighter and more delicate than the finest sword-blade.
