The desirable aspects of a face
Fairness of visage before
Acumen of thought behind
Charity of purpose beyond
and also
Equanimity of spirit, if need there be for a fourth aspect, or a single
higher
(Note: although the "triads" typically listed three examples, it was
sometimes popular or extremely important to provide a fourth exemplar. It is
my understanding that this was particularly the case where there was
perceived to be a paramount example truly without compare, a veritable "non
pareil". And, for this exercise, the practice has allowed me a bit of extra
"fun".)
