To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As horrible as it is well-known is the report about the devoting of new- bom children — how they stab the child which is hidden under sacrificial flour, drink its blood, divide its members among them, and by this sacrifice seal their confederacy, binding themselves to silence by the consciousness of their common crime. And it is a matter of common knowledge what goes on at their (sacred) meals. How, after stimulating their lusts by excess at the table, the lights are extinguished, and in the sh...ameless darkness men and women unite in lustful embraces, as chance mingles them, not shunning even incest That all this, or at any rate most of it, is true, is shown by the secrecy of this mischievous religion. Else why do they take such pains to keep their cult secret, for surely that which is honourable always loves to be known openly, and only crime hides itself. Why do they have no altars, no temples, no known images, never speak in public, or hold free assemblies? Why else, except that their cult is worthy of punishment and reprobation ?
