putting that thing with the teeth around my thigh, like silas
Hi:) i'm studying "gossip girl".. but i don't understand it
:putting that thing with the teeth around my thigh, like silas
what mean "teeth"..... like chain?
Silas is one of the characters in The Da Vinci Code. He wears a metal device around his thigh to cause himself pain - part of his religious outlook. This "thing with the teeth" is called a cilice (look up the images).
You'll see a cilice has prongs or hooks. The speaker says "teeth" because they bite into you.
