Beauty
Of the three Amazons of Amazon House, Myrine was attractive in a
way the other two would never be, although Diana had the most conquests
to boast of. But Diana's big nose disqualified her for beauty of the ski-jump
American variety. Diana had a nose of Jewish, of Italian proportions, but
no name to match it. Lilith Lampito had the name but not the nose, her
own being a perfect American cheerleader's snub. But Myrine's beauty
went beyond the ski-jump and stopped only at her freckles, the classically
regular features and eyelids of Pre-Raphaelite proportions giving her the
appearance of a Burne-Jones model who neglected her complexion.
