June 9 67 I made Etty look to top of Chesnut-tree, when sun not far from behind, & her pyramidal of nose twitched must splendidly, making numerous & deep transverse wrinkles. ─ and in opposition to this the sourcilier acted strongly, & wrinkling only 1/2 of forehead
In Horace acted still better & made great lump over inner corner of eyebrows & wrinkled only forehead over corner ─ This action gives no look of grief. ─ In Leonard whole frontal muscle acted up & down.
