More From Joanna Russ

But there is a beauty every girl has—a gift from god, as pure as the sunlight, and as sacred as life. it is a beauty that all men love, a virtue that wins all men's souls. that beauty is chastity. chastity without skin beauty may enkindle the soul; skin beauty without chastity can kindle only the eye. chastity enshrined in the mold of true womanhood will hold true love eternally.
