                           PART THE SECOND

  THE 150 COMPLEX PASSIONS, OR THOSE BELONGING TO THE SECOND CLASS,
    COMPOSING THE THIRTY-ONE DAYS OF DECEMBER SPENT IN HEARING THE
 NARRATIONS OF MADAME CHAMPVILLE; INTERSPERSED AMONGST WHICH ARE THE
SCANDALOUS DOINGS AT THE CHTEAU DURING THAT MONTH; ALL BEING SET DOWN
                   IN THE FORM OF A JOURNAL.(DRAFT)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

       THE 1ST OF DECEMBER: Champville assumes the task of
storytelling and relates the one hundred and fifty following tales
(the number of each precedes the tale).

       1. Won't depucelate any save those aged between three and
seven, but only cuntishly. 'Tis he who deflowers Champville at the age
of five.

       2. He ties a girl of nine in a curled-up position and
depucelates her from behind.

       3. He wishes to rape a girl of twelve or thirteen, and
depucelates her while holding a pistol against her heart.

       4. He likes to frig a man upon a maiden's cunt, he uses the
fuck for pomade, and next encunts the maid while she is held by the
man.

       5. He wishes to depucelate three girls in succession, one in
the cradle, one at the age of five, the other at seven.

       THE 2ND. 6. He'll not depucelate anyone who is not between nine
years old and thirteen. His prick is enormous; four women are needed
to hold the virgin. The same individual Martaine speaks of, who only
embuggers three-year-olds, the same hell-inspired individual.

       7. He has his valet depucelate the maid, aged ten to twelve,
before his eyes, and during the operation touches them nowhere save
upon the ass. He now fondles the girl's, now the valet's. Discharges
upon the valet's ass.

       8. He wishes to depucelate a girl destined to be married the
following day.

       9. He wishes the marriage to be performed, and to depucelate
the bride at some time between the hour of the mass and the moment the
couple retires to bed.

       10. He would have his valet, a very ingenious personage, go
about marrying girls left and right and bring them to his master, who
therewith fucks them, and next sells them to procuresses.

       THE 3RD. 11. He must be provided with two sisters; he
depucelates them.

       12. He marries the girl, depucelates her, but 'tis all a fraud,
the marriage is a fraud, once he's fucked her, he leaves her.

       13. He will only fuck a maid, and then only immediately after
another man has deflowered her while he has watched. He must have her
cunt muddied up with sperm.

       14. This one depucelates with an artificial engine, very large,
and, without introducing himself, discharges upon the hole he has
cleared.

       15. He will have none but maids of rank and distinction and
pays for them in accordance with their wealth. This individual proves
to be the Duc, who will admit having depucelated more than fifteen
hundred of them over a period of thirty years.

       THE 4TH. 16. He forces a brother to fuck his sister in his
presence, then fucks her afterward; he obliges both to shit
before-hand.

       17. He forces a father to fuck his daughter after he has
himself had her maidenhead.

       18. He brings his nine-year-old daughter to the brothel, and
while she is held by a procuress, depucelates her. He has had twelve
daughters; has had all twelve maidenheads.

       19. Must have virgins between the ages of thirty and forty to
fuck.

       20. He will depucelate no one but nuns, and spends immense sums
of money to get them; he fucks several.

       'Tis the evening of the 4th of December, at the orgies, the Duc
depucelates Fanny, who is held by the four governesses and ministered
by Duclos. He fucks her twice in a row, she faints, the second time he
fucks her while she is unconscious.

       THE 5TH. To celebrate the fifth week's festival, Hyacinthe and
Fanny are joined in matrimony, the marriage is consummated very
publicly.

       21. He would have the mother hold her daughter, he first fucks
the mother, then depucelates the daughter while she is held by the
mother. The same one Desgranges mentions on the 20th of February.

       22. He likes adultery only; one must locate women for him who
are generally known to be virtuous and well behaved, he makes them
disgusted with their husbands.

       23. He enjoys having the husband come himself to prostitute his
wife and hold her while he fucks her. (Messieurs imitate that passion
forthwith.)

       24. He places a married woman upon a bed, encunts her while
that woman's daughter, suspended above, presents him with her cunt to
be licked; the next instant he effects a reversal and encunts the
daughter while kissing the mother's asshole. When he has done licking
the daughter's cunt, he has her piss; then he kisses the mother's
asshole and has her shit.

       25. He has four daughters, legitimate and wedded; he wishes to
fuck all four: he makes all four of them conceive and bear children so
as someday to have the pleasure of depucelating the children he has
had by his daughters and whom their husbands suppose to be their own.

       Apropos of which the Duc recounts - but his anecdote cannot be
numbered amongst the stories because, Messieurs being unable to
duplicate it, it does not compose a passion - the Duc recounts, I say,
that he once knew a man who fucked three children he had by his
mother, amongst whom there was a daughter whom he had marry his son,
so that in fucking her he fucked his sister, his daughter and his
daughter-in-law, and thus he also constrained his son to fuck his own
sister and mother-in-law. Curval recounts another unusual history,
that of a brother and a sister who reached an agreement whereby each
would surrender his children to the other: the sister had a boy and a
girl, so did the brother. They mixed the pudding in such wise that
sometimes they fucked their nephews, sometimes their own children, and
sometimes their first cousins, or else the brothers and sister would
fuck while the father and mother, that is to say, the brother and
sister, fucked one another also.

       That evening, Fanny is surrendered cuntwardly to the assembly,
but as the Bishop and Monsieur Durcet do not fuck cunts, she is only
fucked by Curval and the Duc. Henceforth, she wears a small ribbon
aslant, like a baldric, and after the loss of both her pucelages she
will wear a very wide pink ribbon.

       THE 6TH. 26. He has himself frigged while a woman is being
frigged about the clitoris, and he wishes to discharge at the same
time the girl does, but he discharges upon the buttocks of the man who
frigs the girl.

       27. He kisses the asshole of one girl while a second girl frigs
his ass and a third his prick; they then exchange tasks, so that, when
all is said and done, each of the three has her ass kissed, each frigs
his prick, each frigs his ass. Farts are required of them all.

       28. He licks the cunt of one girl while fucking a second in the
mouth and while his asshole is being licked by a third; then exchange
of positions as above. The cunts must discharge, he swallows their
balm.

       29. He sucks a beshitted ass, has a tongue frig his own
beshitted asshole, and frigs himself upon a beshitted ass; the three
girls then exchange positions.

       30. He has two girls frigged before his eyes, and alternately
fucks the friggeresses from the rear, but in the cunt, while they
continue with their sapphotizings.

       Zphyr and Cupidon are upon that day discovered in the act of
frigging each other, but they have not yet had recourse to reciprocal
embuggery; they are punished. Fanny is much encunted at the orgies.

       THE 7TH. 31. He would have an older girl introduce a younger
girl to bad habits; the older must frig her, give her wicked advice,
and end up by holding her while he fucks her, whether virgin or not.

       32. He calls for four women; he fucks two of them orally, two
cuntwardly, taking great care not to insert his prick in a mouth until
having first had it in a cunt. While all this is going on, he is
closely followed by a fifth woman, who throughout frigs his asshole
with a dildo.

       33. This libertine requires a dozen women, six young, six old
and, if 'tis possible, six of them should be mothers and the other six
their daughters. He pumps out their cunts, asses and mouths; when
applying his lips to the cunt, he wants copious urine; when at the
mouth, much saliva; when at the ass, abundant farts.

       34. He employs eight women to frig him; each of the eight must
be situated in a different posture. (This had better be illustrated by
a drawing.)

       35. Wishes to have three men and three women fucking each other
in divers attitudes.

       THE 8TH. 36. He forms twelve groups of two girls each; they are
so arranged only their asses are visible to him; all the rest of their
bodies must be concealed from his sight. He frigs himself while
studying all those buttocks.

       37. He has six couples simultaneously frig themselves in a room
paneled with mirrors; each couple is composed of two girls frigging
each other in various and equally lubricious postures. He is in the
middle of the room, he regards both the couples and their reflections,
and discharges in the middle of it all, having been frigged by an old
woman. He has kissed the buttocks of every participant in this drama.

       38. He has four streetwalkers besot themselves with wine and
then fight with each other while he looks on; and when they are
thoroughly drunk, they one after another vomit into his mouth. He
favors the oldest and ugliest women possible.

       39. He has a girl shit in his mouth, but does not eat her turd,
and while the first girl is in action, a second sucks his prick and
frigs his ass; while discharging, he shits into the hand of the girl
who is socratizing him. The girls exchange places.

       40. He has a man shit into his mouth and eats while a little
boy frigs him, then the man frigs him and he has the boy shit.

       That evening, at the orgies, Curval depucelates Michette, in
front: she is held by the four duennas and ministered by Duclos; this
arrangement is the conventional one and is observed upon all
occasions; therefore we will not allude to it again.

       THE 9TH. 41. He fucks one girl in her mouth just after having
shitted into the same receptacle; a second girl is lying on top of the
first, with the first girl's head between her thighs, and upon the
face of the second girl a third girl drops a turd, and he, while thus
fucking his own turd in the first girl's mouth, eats the shit
deposited by the third girl upon the second girl's face, and then they
alternate roles, in such wise that each girl enacts all three of them.

       42. Thirty girls pass through his hands during a given day, and
he has them all shit into his mouth, consumes the turds of the three
or four prettiest. He repeats this party five times a week, which
means that he sees 7800 girls a year. When Champville first encounters
him, he is seventy years old and has been in business for fifty.

       43. He sees twelve girls every morning and swallows their dozen
turds; he sees them all at the same time.

       44. He places himself in a bathtub; thirty women come up one
after another and piss and shit into it till it is full; he discharges
while paddling about in all that.

       45. He shits in the presence of four women, requires them to
watch and indeed help deliver him of his turd; next, he wishes them to
divide it into equal parts and eat it; then each woman does a turd of
her own. He mixes them and swallows the entire batter, but his
shit-furnishers have got to be women of at least sixty.

       That evening Michette's cunt is put at the disposal of the
assembly; thereafter she wears the little sash.

       THE 10TH. 46. He has girls A and B shit. Then he forces B to
eat A's turd, and A to eat B's. Then both A and B shit a second time;
he eats both their turds.

       47. He requires a mother and her three daughters, and he eats
the girls' shit upon the mother's ass, and the mother's shit upon one
daughter's ass.

       48. He obliges a daughter to shit into her mother's mouth and
to wipe her ass with her mother's teats; next, he eats the turd in the
mother's mouth, and afterward has the mother shit into her daughter's
mouth, whence, as before, he eats the turd.

       (It would perhaps be advisable to substitute a son and a
mother, in order to create a contrast with 47.)

       49. He wishes a father to eat his son's turd, then he eats the
father's.

       50. He would have the brother shit in his sister's cunt, and he
eats the turd; the sister then must shit in her brother's mouth. He
eats this second turd, too.

       THE 11TH. 51. Champville announces she is now going to speak of
impieties, and makes mention of a man who wishes the whore, while
frigging him, to pronounce dreadful blasphemies; in his turn he utters
terrible ones. His amusement during their dialogue consists in kissing
her ass; he does no more than that.

       52. He would have a girl come with him to a church, and frig
him there, especially at the time the holy sacrament is exposed. He
situates himself as near to the altar as possible, and fondles her ass
while she performs her task.

       53. He goes to confession for the sole purpose of making his
confessor's prick rise aloft; he lists a quantity of infamous
misdeeds, and frigs himself in the confessional all the while he
speaks.

       54. He wishes the girl to go and make her confession, then
fucks her orally the moment she emerges from the confessional.

       55. He fucks a whore throughout a mass being said in his
private chapel, and discharges when the Host is raised.

       That evening, the Duc depucelates Sophie cuntwardly, and while
doing so blasphemes considerably.

       THE 12TH. 56. He buys a confessor, who yields him his place;
thus he is able to hear the young pensionnaires' confessions and to
give them the worst possible advice while pardoning them their sins.

       57. He would have his daughter go to confess to a monk he has
previously bribed, and he is placed where he can overhear everything;
but the monk demands that the penitent keep her skirts raised high
while she catalogues her faults, and her ass posted within plain sight
of the father: thus he is able to hear his daughter's confession and
contemplate her ass at the same time.

       58. Has mass celebrated for completely naked whores; while
observing the spectacle, he frigs his prick upon another girl's ass.

       59. He has his wife go to confess to a monk he has bought: the
monk seduces the wife and fucks her in front of her husband, who is
hidden. If the wife refuses, he emerges from hiding and helps the monk
force her.

       On that day they celebrate the sixth week's festival with the
marriage of Cladon and Sophie, which union is consummated, and in the
evening Sophie's cunt is put generally to use, and she dons the sash.
Because of this event only four passions are recounted on the 12th.

       THE 13TH. 60. Fucks whores on the altar at the same moment mass
is about to be said; they have their naked asses on the sacred stone.

       61. He has a naked girl sit astride and bend forward over a
large crucifix; he fucks her cunt from behind while she is thus
crouched down in such wise the head of Christ frigs her clitoris.

       62. He farts and has the whore fart in the chalice, he pisses
thereinto and has her piss thereinto, he shits thereinto and has her
shit thereinto, and finally he discharges into the chalice.

       63. He has a small boy shit upon the paten, and he eats this
while the boy sucks him.

       64. He has two girls shit upon a crucifix, he shits thereupon
when they have finished, and he is frigged against the three turds
covering the idol's face.

       THE 14TH. 65. He breaks up a crucifix, smashes several images
of the Virgin and the Eternal Father, shits upon the debris and burns
the whole mess. The same man has the mania of bringing a whore to hear
the sermon and having himself frigged while listening to the word of
God.

       66. He takes communion and, the wafer still in his mouth, has
four whores shit upon it.

       67. He has her go to communion and fucks her in the mouth when
she returns.

       68. He interrupts a priest in the midst of saying mass in his
private chapel, interrupts him, I say, in order to frig himself into
the chalice, obliges the whore to frig the priest thereinto, and
forces the latter to quaff the mead.

       *Passion Number 69 omitted by Sade. -Tr.

       70. He intervenes directly the Host is consecrated and forces
the priest to fuck the whore with the Host.

       Upon this day Augustine and Zelmire are found frigging
together; they are both rigorously punished.

       THE 15TH. 71. He has the girl fart upon the Host, himself farts
thereupon, and then swallows the Host while fucking the whore.

       72. The same man who had himself nailed into a coffin - Duclos
mentioned him - compels the whore to shit upon the Host; he also shits
upon it and flings the whole affair into a privy.

       73. Frigs the whore's clitoris with the Host, has her discharge
upon it, then buries it in her cunt and fucks her, discharging upon it
in his turn.

       74. Chops it up with a knife and has the crumbs rammed into his
asshole.

       75. Has himself frigged and then discharges upon the Host and
finally, when he is restored to perfect calm and after his fuck has
flowed, feeds biscuit and all to a dog.

       The same evening, the Bishop consecrates a Host and Curval
destroys Hb's maidenhead with it, he drives it into her cunt and
discharges thereupon. Several others are consecrated, and the already
depucelated sultanas are all fucked with Hosts.

       THE 16TH. Profanation, Champville announces, lately the
principal element in her stories, will from now on be no more
accessory, and what, to borrow the brothel term, are known as little
ceremonies are going to provide the main ingredient in the following
complex passions. She asks her auditors to remember that everything
connected with that will be presented merely as secondary matter, but
that the difference subsisting between her stories and the examples
Duclos has given, is that Duclos always pictured a man with one woman,
whereas she, Champville, will always show several women administering
to a single man.

       76. He has himself flogged by one girl during mass, he fucks a
second girl orally, and he discharges when the Host is elevated.

       77. He has two women gently flog his ass with a martinet; each
woman bestows ten stripes, alternating them with asshole friggery.

       78. He has himself whipped by four different girls while farts
are being launched into his mouth: the girls take turns, so that each
will have had a chance both to whip and to fart.

       79. He has himself whipped by his wife while he fucks his
daughter, next by his daughter while he fucks his wife; this is the
same individual Duclos spoke of, the same man who prostituted his wife
and daughter in her whorehouse.

       80. He has himself whipped simultaneously by two girls, one
flogs the front of him, the other his rear, and when at last he has
been well stimulated, he fucks one of them while the other plies the
lash, then the second while the first flogs him.

       That same evening Hb's cunt is made available to the public,
and she wears the little sash, not being entitled to the large one
until she has lost both her pucelages.

       THE 17TH. 81. He has himself flogged while kissing a boy's ass
and while fucking a girl in the mouth, then he fucks the boy in the
mouth while kissing the girl's asshole, the while constantly receiving
the lash from another girl, then he has the boy flog him, orally fucks
the whore who'd been whipping him, and then has himself flogged by the
girl whose ass he had been kissing.

       82. He has himself whipped by an old woman, fucks an old man in
the mouth, and has the daughter of this aged couple shit into his own
mouth, then changes so that, ultimately, everyone takes his turn in
each role.

       83. He has himself whipped while frigging himself and while
discharging upon a crucifix propped up by a girl's buttocks.

       84. He has himself whipped while fucking a whore from the rear,
using his prick to tamp a Host into her fundament.

       85. He passes an entire brothel in review; he receives the lash
from all the whores while kissing the madame's asshole and receiving
therefrom into his mouth both wind and rain and hailstones.

       THE 18TH. 86. He has himself whipped by teams of cab drivers
and chimney sweeps who pass two at a time, one plying the lash, the
other farting in his mouth; he employs ten or twelve in a morning.

       87. He has himself held by three girls, he gets down on hands
and knees, a fourth girl mounts astride him and thrashes him; each
member of the quartet takes her turn mounting and flogging him.

       88. Naked, he puts himself in the midst of six girls; he is
conscience-stricken, asks to be forgiven, casts himself down upon his
knees. Each girl decrees a penance, and he is given one hundred
strokes for each penance he refuses to do: 'tis the girl he refuses
who whips him. Well, these penances are all exceedingly unpleasant:
one would like to shit into his mouth; another have him lick up her
spittle from the floor; a third is menstruating and would have him
lick her cunt clean; the fourth hasn't washed her feet, will he kindly
lick between her toes; the fifth has snot awaiting his tongue, etc.

       89. Fifteen girls arrive in teams of three: one whips him, one
sucks him, the other shits; the she who shitted, whips; she who
sucked, shits; she who whipped, sucks. And so he proceeds till he has
had done with all fifteen; he sees nothing, heeds nothing, is wild
with joy: a procuress is in charge of the game. He renews this party
six times each week.

       (This one is truly charming and has my infinite recommendation;
the thing has got to move very briskly along, each girl must bestow
twenty-give strokes of the whip, and it is between whippings that the
first sucks and the third shits. If you would prefer fifty strokes
from each girl, that will total up to seven hundred fifty, a very
agreeable figure, not by any means excessive.)

       90. Twenty-five whores soften up his ass with a quantity of
slaps and fondlings; he is not sent away until his ass has become
completely insensible.

       That evening the Duc is flogged while culling Zelmire's forward
maidenhead.

       THE 19TH. 91. He has himself tried by a jury of six whores;
each knows the role she is to play. He is sentenced to be hanged. And
hanged he is; but the cord snaps: 'tis the instant he discharges.
(Relate this to similar ones Duclos described.)

       92. He arranges six old women in a semicircle; while three
young whores lash him, the six crones spit in his face.

       93. A girl frigs his asshole with the handle of a
cat-o'-nine-tails, a second girl whips his thighs and prick from the
front; 'tis thus he is made eventually to discharge over the tits of
the whipper posted before him.

       94. Two women flay him with bulls' pizzles while a third,
kneeling before him, causes him to discharge upon her breasts.

       She recounts only four that day because of the marriage of
Zelmire and Adonis which marks the seventh week's conclusion, and
which is consummated, Zelmire having been depucelated, with what
regards the cunt, the night before.

       THE 20TH. 95. He struggles with six women, the cuts of whose
whips he pretends to wish to avoid; he strives to snatch the whips
from their hands, but they are too strong for him and fustigate him
none the less. He is naked.

       96. He runs the gauntlet between two ranks of twelve girls who
are wielding switches; he is whipped all about the body and discharges
after the ninth race.

       97. He has the soles of his feet whipped, then his prick, then
his thighs while, as he lies upon a couch, three women successively
mount astride him and shit in his mouth.

       98. Three girls alternately flog him, one with a martinet, one
with a bull's pizzle, the other with a cat-o'-nine-tails. A fourth,
kneeling before him and whose asshole the lecher's lackey is frigging,
sucks the master's prick while frigging the lackey's, which he has
discharge upon his sucker's buttocks.

       99. He is amidst six girls: one pricks him with a needle, the
second uses pincers on him, the third burns him, the fourth bites him,
the fifth scratches him, the sixth flagellates him. All that
everywhere upon his body, indiscriminately. He discharges in the thick
of this activity.

       That evening Zelmire, depucelated on 18th of December, is
surrendered cuntwardly to the assembly - to, that is to say, Curval
and the Duc, who alone of the four friends fuck cunts. Once Curval has
fucked Zelmire, his hatred for Adelaide and Constance redoubles; he
wishes to have Constance minister to Zelmire.

       THE 21ST. 100. He has himself frigged by his lackey while the
girl, naked, balances upon a narrow pedestal; all the while he is
being frigged, she may neither budge nor lose her equilibrium.

       101. He has the procuress frig him while he fondles her
buttocks; and meanwhile, between her fingers, the girl holds a very
short candle which she must not drop until the rou has spat out his
fuck; he is very careful not to discharge before the girl's fingers
have been seared.

       102. He sups at an immense table; for light, he has six burning
candles, each inserted in the ass of a naked girl lying upon the
dining table.

       103. While he takes his supper he has a girl kneel on sharp
pebbles, and if in the course of the entire meal she stirs, she is not
paid. Above her are two tilted candles whence hot tallow spills upon
her bare back and breasts. She need but make the slightest movement
and she is packed off without being paid a sou.

       104. He obliges her to remain four days in a very narrow iron
cage, wherein she can neither sit nor lie down; he feeds her through
the bars. He is the one Desgranges will mention in connection with the
turkey's ballet.

       That same evening, Curval depucelates Colombe's cunt.

       THE 22ND. 105. He wraps a girl and a cat in a large blanket,
has her stand and dance about; the cat bites, scratches her as she
falls to the floor; but, come what may, she must skip and leap, and
continue her antics until the man discharges.

       106. He massages a woman with a certain substance which causes
her skin to itch so violently that she scratches herself till her
blood flows; he watches her at work, frigging himself the while.

       107. He gives a woman a potion to drink, it halts her
menstruating, and thus he makes her run the risk of grave illness.

       108. He makes her swallow a medicine intended for horses, it
causes her horrible gripes and colics; he watches her suffer and shit
all day long.

       109. He rubs a naked girl with honey, then binds her to a
column and releases upon her a swarm of large flies.

       That same evening, Colombe's cunt is put at the free
disposition of the company.

       THE 23RD. 110. He places the girl upon a pivot which revolves
with prodigious speed. She is naked and bound and turns until he
discharges.

       111. He keeps a girl suspended head downward until he
discharges.

       112. Makes her swallow a heavy dose of emetic, persuades her
she has been poisoned, and frigs himself while watching her vomit.

       113. Kneads and mauls her breasts until they are entirely black
and blue.

       114. Kneads and maltreats her ass for three hours; he repeats
this rite for nine days in succession.

       THE 24TH. 115. He has a girl climb a tall ladder until she is
at least twenty feet above the ground, at which point a rung cracks
and she falls, but upon mattresses prepared in advance; he walks up to
her and discharges upon her body the very moment she lands, and
sometimes he chooses this instant to fuck her.

       116. He slaps a girl's face with all his strength and
discharges while so doing; he is seated in a comfortable chair and the
girl is upon her knees, facing him.

       117. Beats her knuckles with hickory ferrules.

       118. Powerful slaps upon her buttocks until her behind is
scarlet.

       119. Inserts the nozzle of a bellows in her asshole; he
inflates her.

       120. He introduces an enema of almost boiling water into her
bowels, then amuses himself observing her writhe, and discharges upon
her ass.

       That evening, Aline's ass is soundly slapped by the four
colleagues, who keep it up until her ass is crimson; a duenna holds
her by the shoulders. A few slaps are bestowed upon Augustine's ass,
too.

       THE 25TH. 121. He has some pious women recruited for his
pleasure, beats them with a crucifix and rosaries, and then has each
of them pose as a statue of the Virgin upon an altar, but pose in a
cramped position from which they are not to budge. They must remain
thus throughout an exceedingly long mass; when at last the Elevation
occurs, each woman is to shit upon the Host.

       122. Has her run naked about a garden at night, the season is
winter, the weather freezing; here and there are stretched cords upon
which she trips and falls.

       123. When she has removed all her clothes, he casts her, as if
by accident, into a vat of nearly boiling water and prevents her from
climbing out until he has first discharged upon her body.

       124. Naked, on a wintry day she is secured to a post in the
middle of a garden and there she remains until she has repeated five
Pater Nosters and five Hail Marys, or until he has yielded his fuck,
which another girl excites to flow as he contemplates the spectacle.

       125. He spreads a powerful glue upon the rim of a privy seat
and sends the girl in to shit; directly she sits down, her ass is
caught fast. Meanwhile, from the other side a small charcoal brazier
is introduced beneath her ass. Scorched, she leaps up, leaving an
almost perfect circle of skin behind her.

       That evening profane tricks are played at the expense of
Adelaide and Sophie, the two believers, and the Duc depucelates
Augustine, of whom he has been passionately fond for weeks; thrice he
discharges into her cunt. And that same evening the idea enters his
head to have her run naked through the courtyard, dreadful though the
weather be. He proposes the idea with great energy and in forceful
language, but his confreres regretfully reject it, saying that
Augustine is very pretty and that the program calls for her further
use; and, the Bishop points out, she still has not been depucelated
aft. The Duc offers to pay two hundred louis into the common fund if
the society will allow him to take her down into the cellars at once;
he is again refused. He wishes at least that she have her ass spanked;
she receives twenty-five blows from each friend. But the Duc applies
his with his fist and discharges a fourth time between the eighteenth
and nineteenth. He requisitions her for his bed and that night encunts
her thrice again.

       THE 26TH. 126. He gets the girl thoroughly drunk, she lies down
to sleep. While asleep, her bed is raised. Toward the middle of the
night, she reaches down for her chamber pot; not finding it within
reach, she gropes further and tumbles out upon a mattress; the man
awaits her there and fucks her as soon as she has fallen.

       127. He has her run naked about the garden, he follows after
her, brandishing a cabman's whip, but only threatens her with it. She
is obliged to run until she falls from weariness; at which instant he
springs upon her and fucks her.

       128. He bestows one hundred strokes, ten at a time, with a
martinet of black silk; between each series of blows, he kisses the
girl's ass with great fervor.

       129. He flogs her with a cat-o'-nine-tails whose thongs have
been steeped in brandy, and does not discharge until the girl's blood
is flowing. Then he discharges upon her buttocks.

       Champville recounts only four passions on the 26th of December
because it is the day of the eight week's festival. It is celebrated
by the marriage of Zphyr and Augustine, both of whom belong to the
Duc and lie at night in his chamber; but prior to the ceremony, His
Grace would have Curval flog the boy while he, Blangis, flogs the
girl; and 'tis done. Each receives a hundred lashes, but the Duc, more
than ever aroused by Augustine because she has made him discharge
frequently, lays on very emphatically and is content with nothing
short of much blood.

       In connection with that evening's entertainments, we must fully
explain the character of the Saturday punishments - how they are meted
out and how many lashes are distributed. You might draw up a list
itemizing the crimes and, to the right, the appropriate number of
lashes.

       THE 27TH. 130. He likes to whip none but little girls between
the ages of five and seven, and always finds a pretext so as to make
it appear as if he were punishing them.

       131. A woman comes to confess to him, he is a priest; she
recites all her sins, and by way of penance, he gives her five hundred
lashes.

       132. He receives four women and gives each six hundred lashes.

       133. He has the same ceremony performed in his presence by two
valets, one relieving the other when his arm is fatigued by the
whipping; twenty women are dealt with, each merits six hundred
strokes: the women are not bound. He frigs himself while the work is
in progress.

       134. He flogs only boys aged from fourteen to sixteen, and he
has them discharge into his mouth afterward. Each is warmed by one
hundred lashes; he always sees two at a sitting.

       Augustine's cunt is surrendered that evening; Curval encunts
her twice and, like the Duc, wishes to whip her when he has had done
with her. Both gentlemen fall upon that charming girl like ravenous
beasts; they propose a contribution of four hundred louis to the
common fund in exchange for permission to take her in hand together
that same evening; their offer is rejected.

       THE 28TH. 135. He has a naked girl enter a chamber; whereupon
two men fall upon her and each whips one of her buttocks until it is
raw. She is bound. When 'tis over, he frigs the men's pricks upon the
whore's bleeding ass, and frigs himself thereupon also.

       136. She is bound hand and foot to the wall. Facing her, and
also attached to the wall, is a blade of steel adjusted to the height
of her belly. If she strives to avoid a blow, it is forward she must
lunge; she cuts herself. If she wishes to avoid the blade, she must
fling herself backward toward the lash.

       137. He flogs a girl, giving her one hundred lashes the first
day, two hundred the second, four hundred the third, etc., etc., and
ceases on the ninth day.

       138. He has the whore descend on all fours, climbs upon her
back and faces her buttocks; he squeezes his legs tight about her
ribs. Once in the saddle, he brings his lash down upon her ass and
curls the thongs round to her cunt, and as for this operation he
employs a martinet, he has no trouble directing his blows so that they
carry into the vagina's interior, and that is just what he does.

       139. He must have a pregnant woman, he has her bend backward
over a cylinder which supports her back. Her head, on the other side
of the cylinder, rests upon the seat of a chair and is secured to it;
her hair is strewn about, her legs tied as far apart as possible and
her swollen belly appears stretched exceedingly taut; her cunt fairly
yawns in his face. 'Tis upon her belly he beats a tattoo, and when his
whip has brought a profusion of blood into sight, he walks round to
the other side of the cylinder and discharges upon her face.

       N.B.-According to my notes, the adoptions do not occur until
after defloration, hence say that the Duc adopts Augustine at this
point. Verify whether or not this is true, and whether the adoption of
the four sultanas does not occur at the very beginning, and whether at
the beginning it is not said that they sleep in the bedrooms of the
friends who have adopted them.

       That evening, the Duc repudiates Constance, who therewith falls
into the greatest discredit; however, they treat her with some
consideration, because of her pregnancy, in connection with which
Messieurs have certain plans. Augustine now passes for the Duc's wife,
and hereafter performs none but a wife's functions upon the sofa and
in the chapel. Constance descends in rank to below that of the
governesses.

       THE 29TH. 140. He works exclusively with girls of fifteen, and
he flogs them with sting nettles and holly until they are bleeding;
his taste in asses is highly developed, he is not easy to please.

       141. Flogs only with a bull's pizzle, continuing until the
buttocks are in tatters; he uses four women one after another.

       142. Flogs only with steel-tipped martinets, discharges only
when blood is flowing generally.

       143. The same man of whom Desgranges will speak on the 20th of
February requires pregnant women; he flogs with a bullwhip, by means
of which he is able to remove respectable chunks of flesh from the
buttocks; from time to time he aims a blow or two at her belly.

       Rosette is flogged that evening, and Curval has her forward
maidenhead. The intrigue between Hercule and Julie is brought to
light; she has been having herself fucked. When scolded for her
misbehavior, she replies libertinely; she is therewith whipped
extraordinarily. Then, because Messieurs are fond of her, and also of
Hercule, who has given yeoman service so far, they are pardoned and
frolicked with.

       THE 30TH. 144. He places a candle at a certain height. Attached
to the middle finger of her right hand is a piece of bread soaked in
wax and set afire; if she does not make haste, she'll be burned. Her
task is, with this bit of ignited bread, to light the other candle set
high upon the shelf; she is obliged to leap in order to reach it; the
libertine, armed with a leathern-thonged whip, lashes her with all his
strength, to encourage her to leap higher and to light the candle more
quickly. If she succeeds, there's an end to the game; if not, she is
flogged till she falls unconscious.

       145. He flogs first his wife, then his daughter, and
prostitutes them at the brothel in order to have them whipped while he
looks on, but this is not the same man of whom we have already spoken.

       146. Whips with a cat-o'-nine-tails, from the nape of the neck
to the calves of the legs; the girl is bound, he excoriates her entire
back.

       147. Whips breasts only; he insists that they be exceedingly
large. And pays twice the sum when the woman is pregnant.

       Rosette's cunt is delivered up to the society that evening;
after Curval and the Duc have thoroughly fucked it, they and their
colleagues thoroughly whip it. She is down on her hands and knees;
Messieurs take care to drive the martinet's steel tips well up into
her.

       THE 31ST. 148.He whips the face only, using a bundle of dry
switches; he must have charming faces. Desgranges will refer to him on
the 7th of February.

       149. Using switches, he impartially lashes the entire body,
sparing nothing, face, cunt, and breasts included.

       150. Gives two hundred blows of the bull's pizzle, these being
distributed evenly up and down the backs of lads aged from sixteen to
twenty.

       151. He is in a room, four girls arouse and flog him; when at
last he is all afire, he leaps upon a fifth girl, who is naked and
awaiting him in the next room and, wielding a bull's pizzle, he
assails whatever of her he can reach, maintaining the hail of blows
until he discharges; but in order that his ejaculation arrive sooner
and the patient suffer less, he is not sent into the second room until
his discharge is imminent.

       (Find out why there is one too many.)

       Champville is applauded, the same honors are bestowed upon her
that were given Duclos, and that evening both storytellers dine with
Messieurs. Later, at the orgies, Adelaide, Aline, Augustine, and
Zelmire are condemned to be whipped with switches all over the body
save upon the breasts, but as the friends are to sport with them for
another two months, they are treated circumspectly.
