Excerpt from The Story of a Royal Favourite, Vol. 2 of 3 In England, an ugly woman is a female Cain. Conscious that the mark of reprobation is upon her, she gives herself up in despair; for to attempt to improve her appearance by dress, would be esteemed a ying in the face of Providence. - All she has to do is to skulk through life, with her veil down; getting through her threescore years and ten as quietly as she can; neither seen, nor heard, nor thought of!
