This basic substance of feminine sexuality is not the sole property of the human species, for Dr. Allen presented evidence demonstrating that exactly the same hormone is present in the hen, pig, sheep, cow and rat as well as woman.

...international amenities when at one fell blow they are violated without pomp or ceremony by a pictorial incitement to popular mutiny. It remains a shining platitude that all the efforts of suave diplomatists to weld Anglo-Saxonism into a case-hardened ideal are as a potato to a sitting hen in the face of the deft strokes of irresponsible, irrepressible caricaturists and others. Charles Dickens, to use the words of Carlyle, caused "all Yankee- doodle-dom" to blaze up "like one universal soda bottle," when he ventured to criticize some aspects of 100% American democracy.

...swaddling clothes--when the Yard was as full of characters as a Dickens novel. As early as the seventeenth century one Samuel Gibson had won the general esteem by sponsoring certain midnight parties at his dwelling to which students brought sundry turkeys, geese and other fowls from the neighbors' hen houses to be cooked.
