To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Superficially it does not appear to be present, but a little reflexion shows that it is there. It has become so much a part of us that we scarcely recognize its presence, the instinct to reproduce being com- mon to everyone. Every woman feels this of Primitive Races 125 to be her duty, — ^her religious duty if the dic- tum of the Church is to be followed: "Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord; and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are childre...n of the youth. Happy is the man that has his quiver full of them; they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate. '' Psalm 127. During earlier times barrenness was regarded as a curse, and many charms were in use to counteract this calamity. A sentence from a letter of Julia Ward Howe to her young sister about to be married, affords an apt reference to this sense of duty: "Marriage, Uke death, is a debt we owe to nature, and though it costs us something to pay it, yet we are more content and better established in peace when we have paid it.'' The feelijig associated with the command "to increase and multiply'' is so much a part of our innermost thoughts and feelings that further references to it are imnecessary.
