ABSTRACT

Can any person say what may be the consequences of introducing a bestial humour into the human frame after a long lapse of years? Who knows, besides, what ideas may rise in the course of time from a brutal fever having excited its incongruous impressions on the brain? Who knows, also, but that the human character may undergo strange mutations from quadrupedan sympathy, and that some modern Pasiphae may rival the fables of old? 1
