Σελίδα 68 - Vice is a monster of so frightful mien, As, to be hated, needs but to be seen ; But, seen too oft, familiar with her face, We first endure, then pity, then embrace.
Σελίδα 168 - Though I look old, yet I am strong and lusty: For in my youth I never did apply Hot and rebellious liquors in my blood; Nor did not with unbashful forehead woo The means of weakness and debility; Therefore my age is as a lusty winter, Frosty, but kindly: let me go with you; I'll do the service of a younger man In all your business and necessities.
Σελίδα 168 - And that which should accompany old age, As honour, love, obedience, troops of friends, I must not look to have ; but, in their stead, Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honour, breath, Which the poor heart would fain deny, and dare not.

Σελίδα 117 - Now, let us take the lower view, and regard the question as one of expediency merely. There is no medicine known to the profession which possesses the specific property of inducing miscarriage ; many will do it in some cases, but only secondarily ; that is, in proportion as they shatter the constitution, ruin the health, and produce a state of the system which renders it incompetent, through debility, to sustain pregnancy. Medicines, then, are out of the question if a man loves his wife, and values...

Surrounded by the numerous pledges of their earlier loves, they may indeed .abandon the cares, and toils, and struggles of life to those who owe to them their existence, and thus far their maintenance. It is the natural order of things, that the parents shall thus, as it were, change places with their children. After the "change of life...
Σελίδα 88 - Here is the narration of a subject who became a masturbator a little later : "I knew nothing of the vice of onanism until the age of ten years, when one of my companions, at the college where I was placed, instructed me. I could not tell you the number of times that I practiced it to the age of fifteen; then only my eyes were opened to the whole enormity of my fault.
