EPIGRAPH: "You are very obliging," answered Beauty. "I own I am pleased with your kindness, and when I consider that, your deformity scarce appears."
"Yes, Yes," said the Beast, "my heart is good, but still I am a monster."
"Among mankind," said Beauty, "there are many that deserve the name more than you, and I prefer you, just as you are, to those, who, under a human form, hide a treacherous, corrupt, and ungrateful heart."
