Ah, then it must be right. And yet,
Suppose for once--suppose, Ninette--

NINETTE
But what?

NINON
Suppose it were not so?
Suppose there _were_ true men, you know!

NINETTE
And then?

NINON
Why, if that _could_ occur,
What kind of men should you prefer?

NINETTE
What looks, you mean?

NINON
Looks, voice and all.

NINETTE
Well, as to that, he must be tall,
Or say, not "tall"--of middle size;
And next, he must have laughing eyes;
And a hook-nose,--with, underneath,
Oh! what a row of sparkling teeth!
