To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
My observations on this subject do not agree very closely with those either of Ludwig or Semper. The differences between us partly, though not entirely, depend upon the fundamentally different view we hold about the constitution of the ovary and the nature of the epithelium covering it (vide pp. 555 and 556). In very young ovaries (PI. 24, fig. 8) nests of ova (in my sense of the term) are very numerous, but though usually super- ficial in position are also found in the deeper layers of the ova...ry. They are especially concentrated in their old position, close to the dorsal edge of the organ. In some instances they do not present quite the same appearance as in the embryo, owing to the outlines of the ova composing them being distinct, and to the presence between the ova of numerous interstitial cells derived from the germinal epithelium, and destined to become follicular epithelium. These latter cells at first form a much flatter follicular epithelium than in the embryonic periods, so that the smaller adult ova have a much less columnar investment than ova of the same size in the embryo.
