titled "Those Eyes", on the subject of actresses

beyond a normal newsgroup article, it soonbecame known simply as "THE LIST".

5. Whose words?
Finally, I now stand before the court to accept thefull share of my responsibility for what I havedone and the judge would, of course, pass againstme such orders of sentence as may be considered
proper. But I would like to add that I do not desireany mercy to be shown to me, nor do I wish thatanyone should beg for mercy on my behalf. Myconfidence about the moral side of my action has
not been shaken even by the criticism levelledagainst it on all sides. I have no doubt that honestwriters of history will weigh my act and find thetrue value thereof someday in future.

for a ring (not necessarily the one worn in afinger) and hence XY was used for someone who
used to make a jingling sound with her jewels.
