Note 228 — Chapter I · ASPECTS OF THE LIBIDO
Beatrice M. Hinkle translation
Compare Freud’s evidence, Zentralblatt für Psychoanalyse, I, p. 188. I must remark at this place that etymologically penis and penates are not grouped together. On the contrary, πέος, πόσυη, Sanskrit pása-ḥ, Latin penis, were given with the Middle High German visel (penis) and Old High German fasel the significance of fœtus, proles. (Walde: “Latin Etymologie,” s. Penis.)
