Let us inquire regarding the function of this alkaline albuminous secretion from the vesicles and prostate. For what purpose does Nature prepare such a secretion? The spermatozoa frequently remain several days in the organs of the female before the ovum is found and fertilized. During these several days the spermatozoa are exerting no small amount of energy in their vigorous flagellate movement.

There is something so pitiful in such criticism, that one cannot be wounded by it; but even when we are the most peaceable of men, we feel a desire to flagellate such wet dogs, who come into our rooms and lay themselves down in the best place in them.

Joel Ham shook his head. 'I teach your children, he said. 'I neither hang nor flagellate your criminals. 'No, no, a-course not, said Peterson. 'Might you be able to spare us this boy fer the rest o' the afternoon, in the name o' the committee? asked Cann. 'We'll go an' argue with his mother to leave the lickin' of him to the committee. 'As a question o' public interest, said Peterson.

To revert to the function of the testes, we may say that during these various stages of sexual stimulation and excitement the testes are actively secreting thousands upon thousands of nascent spermatozoa, which being released, are hurried along, partly by their own flagellate movements and partly by the action of the cilia in the ducts of the epididymis and the peristaltic contractions of the vas deferens hurried along the vas to the ampulla.

How far more impressive it is to stand in an empty sanctuary in the house divine of "the Hidden One," whom the nations of the world worship, whether they spread their robes on the sand and turn their faces to Mecca, or beat the tambourine and sing "glory hymns" of salvation, or flagellate themselves in the night before the patron saint of the Passionists, or only gaze at the snow-white plume that floats from the snows of Etna under the rose of dawn, and feel the soul behind Nature.

Just as some women become nuns, and flagellate themselves, and then when they are writhing from their own self-inflicted stripes, they dream they are the 'brides of Christ, entirely forgetting the extremely irreligious fact that to have so many 'brides' the good Christ Himself might possibly be troubled, and would surely occupy an inconvenient position, even in Heaven!

Shakspere, in order to flagellate Montaigne's mean views about womankind, puts into the mouth of Ophelia, when she has no longer the control of her tongue, the hideous words: 'Come, my coach! and 'Oh, how the wheel become it! This is a satirical hit, rapidly indicated, but only understood by those who had carefully read Montaigne's book.

When some of the primitive cells began to feed on each other, and develop mobility, it is probable that at least two distinct types were evolved, corresponding to the two lowest animal organisms in nature to-day. This type, however, which is known as the Flagellate, may be derived from the next, which we will take as the primitive and fundamental animal type.

His sovereign rights are acknowledged by the Government so far as to hold him more or less responsible for any iniquity committed by his people; and as the Government do not allow him to execute or flagellate the said people, earthly pomp is rather a hollow thing to Tackie.

"You are right, Chicot, and my mother is right. I will call the Swiss." "Oh, yes! Quelus has got them." "My guards, then." "Schomberg has them." "My household at least." "They have gone with Maugiron." "Without my orders?" "And when do you ever give orders, except, perhaps, to flagellate either your own skin, or that of others? But about government.
