The text describes the depiction of various emotional states through physical gestures. For a desperate person, the text suggests an exaggerated extension of the arms and uncertainty reflected in their posture. It also describes the portrayal of anger through specific facial and bodily expressions, such as grasping the throat, clenched fists, and fierce expressions.
Actual Depictions
Despairing hanged Judas must be recognized.
An action of a Desperate person, was not improperly shown with the extension of both Arms; extending from East to West in the uncertain, not knowing where to expect Comfort or Help. Yet when Madness and Negligence play a role, some indications must appear in the Actions, which either harm themselves or cause suffering to others; or also perform some Silly Tricks.
To display an Image in the utmost Tower of Anger, someone must be made to grasp them by the Throat or be seized by the Hair, pressing the Head against the ground; kicking them with a bent Knee in the side, the Arm straightened and the Fist tightly clenched. The Hair must, through the gathering and swelling of the Head and Neck muscles, appear raised like Bristles. The Eyebrows must be drawn downward: Biting and Gnashing on the Teeth. The Corners of the Mouth-Lips, curved downward like a Bow. The Crop thickly swollen and swollen; with Folds and Wrinkles at the front: the Face should, besides the tightly drawn-up Corners of the Eyebrows which frown upwards, be Fiery, Jealous, and Murderous turned against that of its Party. The Lips of the Angry, says Hieronymus, tremble, the Teeth Gnash, the Face blasts, and by the burning Words, the Shores of the Mouth are discolored. Ovidius also describes it interestingly.
