1348. Some of them, male and female, are naked only to the navel, the lower part not then appearing except only as a small dark cloud, because they were without those things which the region of the loins signifies. Some of both sexes appear naked, but faintly; these are they who are better behaved, for they greet each other mutually, thus they go out and return at the back, and they greet each other when they meet. Inwardly they are like the others, for they are among that crew cherishing similar things in their "animus", but they want to preserve appearances.
