While bathing, dancing in the water, I saw my reflection, and as always, fell in love with myself.

I am so fond of the beautiful and the wise! And suddenly I saw--on my forehead, among my other inborn adornments, a new, strange sign--Was it not this sign that has brought the heaviness, the petrified look, and the sweet taste in my mouth?
Here a cross is darkly outlined on my forehead--right here--look.

Come closer to me.

Is this not strange?
But I did not understand it at that time, and I liked it.

Let there be no more adornment.
