The following are the different kinds of
biting
|
|
- The hidden bite.
The biting which is shown only by the excessive redness of the skin, is called the
"hidden bite."
- The swollen bite.
When the skin is pressed down on both sides, it is called the "swollen
bite."
- The point.
When a small portion of the skin is bitten with two teeth only, it is called the
"point."
- The line of points.
When such small portions of the skin are bitten with all the teeth, it is called the
"line or points."
- The coral and the jewel.
The biting which is done by bringing together the teeth and the lips is called the
"coral and the jewel." The lips are the coral
and the teeth are the jewels.
- The line of jewels.
When biting is done with all the teeth, it is called the "line of
jewels."
- The broken cloud.
The biting which consists of unequal risings in a circle, and which comes from the space between the teeth, is called the
"broken-cloud." This is impressed on the breasts.
- The biting of the boar.
The biting which consists of many broad rows of marks near to one another, and with red intervals, is called the
"biting of a boar." This is impressed on the breasts and the shoulder.
The last two modes of biting are unusual to persons of intense passion.
The lower lip is the place on which the "hidden bite," the "swollen bite," and the "point" are made.
The "swollen bite," and the "coral and the jewel" bite are done on the cheek.
Both the "line of points" and the "line of jewels" are to be impressed on the throat, the armpit, and the joints of the thighs.
But the "line of points" alone is to be impressed on the forehead and the thighs.
Kissing, pressing with the nails, and biting are the ornaments of the left cheek, and when the word cheek is used it is to be understood as the left cheek.
