Beauty is scandalous sir! It takes away a man's reason and cedes him unreasonable fervor. For you see sir! A man profligate as me; has found in this destitutionthat a reasonable man is more likely to lead acontent life. That's the best a man can be sir, content.Especially an eternally dejected man, such as myself.Who has lost his ability to be pleased.
