The Art of Love

In the very early first century A.D., Ovid penned advice on the art of seducing women. He says:

Don't let your hair stick up in tufts on your head; see that your hair and your beard are decently trimmed. See also that your nails are clean and nicely filed; don't have any hair growin out of your nostrils; take care that your breath is sweet, and don't go about reeking like a billy-goat.

Still relevant after all these years, Ovid!

Also, for you tricksy boyses:

Tears, too, are a mighty useful resource in the matter of love. They would melt a diamond. Make a point, therefore, of letting your mistress see your face all wet with tears. Howbeit, if you can't manage to squeeze out any tears -- and they won't always flow just when you want them to -- put your finger in your eyes.
