Note 38 — PREVENTION TO CONCEPTION; CONSIDERED IN ITS SOCIAL BEARINGS.
Reading edition
Some German poet, whose name has escaped me, says,
“Tapfer ist de Lowensieger,
Tapfer is der Weltbezwinger,
Tapferer, wer sich selbst bezwang!”
“Brave is the lion-victor,
Brave the conqueror of a world,
Braver he who controls himself!”
It is a noble sentiment, and very appropriate to the present discussion.
