Relative proportion of the hand and foot.
The foot is as much longer than the hand as the thickness of the arm
at the wrist where it is thinnest seen facing.
Again, you will find that the foot is as much longer than the hand
as the space between the inner angle of the little toe to the last
projection of the big toe, if you measure along the length of the
foot.
The palm of the hand without the fingers goes twice into the length
of the foot without the toes.
If you hold your hand with the fingers straight out and close
together you will find it to be of the same width as the widest part
of the foot, that is where it is joined onto the toes.
And if you measure from the prominence of the inner ancle to the end
of the great toe you will find this measure to be as long as the
whole hand.
From the top angle of the foot to the insertion of the toes is equal
