  1. A female burglar. dated,rare
    — But in men these virtues are comparatively unimportant, and the one supreme and cardinal virtue of a Ceres man is that he should never have had the tip of his nose touched by a woman. A man with an untouched nose may be proud, arrogant, and cruel, and yet be admired; but a man who is known to have had the tip of his nose touched by a woman is sent to associate with murderesses and burglaresses, and despised even by them.
