"Try again!" continued the princess, addressing Adrienne. "Are there no more relations that you wish to add to this interesting family-group? Really a queen could not act with more magnificence." "Right! I wish to give my family a royal reception such as is due to the son of a king, and the daughters of the Duke de Ligny.

Sam Brewster half arose to congratulate the two young people, but Sary's dish was in the way. He bumped his head and the dish slid from her hands. Sary threw up both hands in dismay there was the milk-toast spattered all over the ground! But a laugh from her mistress caused her to look in the direction the family-group were gazing.

Bachofen here suggests a pre-matriarchal period in which the elementary family-group was founded on and held together by a common subjection to the oldest and strongest male.

And the family-group, whether large or small, preserves its ancient constitution and character; it is still a religious society, exacting obedience, on the part of all its members, to traditional custom. So much having been explained, the customs regarding marriage and adoption, in their relation to the family hierarchy, can be clearly understood.
