The debility to which Nature condemned woman incontestably proves that her design is for man, who then more than ever enjoys his strength, to exercise it in all the violent forms that suit him best, by means of tortures, if he be so inclined, or worse.
Cette debilite ou la nature condamna les femmes prouve incontestablement qu son intention es que l'homme, qui jouit plus qu jamais alors de sa puissance, l'exerce par touts les violences qu bon lui semblera, par des supplices meme, s'il le veut.
