Whip her, flay her, bar all the doors of society against her return.
Set on her all the blood hounds.
Shove her off precipice after precipice.
Push her down, kick her out.
If you see her struggling on the waves and with her blood tipped fingers clinging to the verge of respectability, drop a millstone on her head.
For a woman's sin, men have no mercy, and the heart of other women is more cruel than death, for her, in the dark hour of her calamity, the women who with the same temptation might have fallen into deeper damnation.
Have no commiseration and no prayer.
The heaviest stroke that comes down upon a fallen woman's soul is the merciless indignation of her sisters.
If the multitudes of the fallen could be placed in a straight line and
It would reach from here to the gates of the lost and back again.
But what of the destroyer?
We take his arm.
We flatter his appearance.
We take off our hats.
He is admitted to our parlors.
For him we cast our votes, for him we speak our eulogies, and when he is gone we read over the heap of compost, blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.
They rest from their labours and their works do follow them.
In the fashionable city today.
There walk a thousand libertines.
They are a moving pest.
