                            PART THE THIRD

  THE 150 CRIMINAL PASSIONS, OR THOSE BELONGING TO THE THIRD CLASS,
    COMPOSING THE THIRTY-ONE DAYS OF JANUARY PASSED IN HEARING THE
  NARRATIONS OF MADAME MARTAINE; 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 JANUARY. 1. He loves nothing but to have himself
embuggered, and he is never able to find too thick a prick. But, says
Martaine, she'll not lay much emphasis upon this passion which is too
simple a taste and one wherewith her auditors are far too well
acquainted.

       2. He wishes to depucelate none but little girls between the
ages of three and seven, in the bum. This is the man who had her
pucelage in this manner: she was four years old, the ordeal caused her
to fall ill, her mother implored this man to give aid, money. But his
heart was of flint. . . .
       And this man is the same one of whom Duclos spoke on the 29th
of November; the same again who appears in Champville's story of the
2nd of December. He has a prick of colossal proportions, he is
enormously rich. He depucelates two little girls every day: one of
them in the cunt, in the morning, as Champville related on the 2nd of
December, the other in the bum, in the afternoon; and he has a
quantity of other passions as well. Four women held Martaine when he
embuggered her. His discharge lasts six minutes, and he bellows like a
bull while it is in progress. His simple, straightforward, and adroit
method of threading her needle, even though she was a young thing of
four; describe all that.

       3. Her mother sells the pucelage of Martaine's older brother to
a man who sodomizes boys only, and who would have them exactly seven
years old.

       4. She is now thirteen, her brother fifteen; they go to the
home of a man who constrains the brother to fuck his sister, and who
alternately fucks now the boy's ass, now the girl's, while they are in
each other's clutches.

       Martaine proudly describes her ass; Messieurs request her to
display it, she exhibits it from the platform.

       The man she has just spoken of, she continues, is the same
person who figured in Duclos' story of the 21st of November, the
Comte, and who will appear in Desgranges' of the 24th of February.

       5. He has himself fucked while embuggering the brother and
sister; the same personage Desgranges will refer to on the 24th of
February.

       That same evening, the Duc depucelates the bum of Hb, who is
merely twelve. The operation succeeds only at the price of infinite
trouble: she is held by the four duennas and administered by Duclos
and Champville. And as there is to be a festival on the morrow, in
order that things run smoothly then, Hb's ass is also, on the
evening of the 1st of January, surrendered to the society, and all
four friends take full advantage of it. She is carried away
unconscious; has been buggered seven times.

       (Martaine must not say that she has a uterine deformity; that
would be false.)

       THE 2ND. 6. He has four girls fart in his mouth all the while
he embuggers a fifth, then he changes girls. All rotate: all fart, all
are embuggered; he does not discharge until he has finished with the
fifth ass.

       7. Amuses himself with three small boys: embuggers and has each
of them shit, puts all three to each task, and frigs the boy who is
inactive.

       8. He fucks the sister in the mouth while having her brother
shit into his mouth, then he reverses their roles, and during both
exercises he is embuggered.

       9. He embuggers none but girls of fifteen, but only after
having, by way of preliminary, flogged them with all his strength.

       10. For an hour he pinches and molests her buttocks and
asshole, then embuggers her while she is flogged with exceeding
violence.

       The ninth week's festival is celebrated upon that day: Hercule
weds Hb and fucks her cuntwardly. Curval and the Duc take turns
sodomizing first the husband, then the wife.

       THE 3RD. 11. He embuggers only during mass, and discharges at
the moment of the Elevation of the Host.

       12. He embuggers only while kicking a crucifix about in the
dust; the girl must treat it with like contempt.

       13. The man who amused himself with Eugnie on Duclos' eleventh
day has the girl shit, wipes the well-beshitted ass; he possesses an
outsized prick, and embuggers, ploughing into the asshole behind a
consecrated Host.

       14. Embuggers a youth, has a second youth embugger him, both
ploughing, as above, behind a protective Host; upon the nape of the
neck of the boy he is embuggering rests another Host, and a third
youth shits thereupon. He discharges thus, without changing position,
but while uttering fearful blasphemies.

       15. He embuggers the priest while the latter is in the act of
saying mass, and when the priest has performed the consecration, the
fucker withdraws for a moment; profiting from this brief interval, the
priest buries the Host in his ass, the fucker returns straightway to
work and re-embuggers him, tamping in the wafer.

       That evening, Curval, with a Host depucelates in the bum the
young and charming Zlamir. And Antinos fucks the Prsident with
another Host; while fucking, the Prsident's tongue pushes a third
into Fanchon's asshole.

       THE 4TH. 16. He likes to embugger none but very aged women
while they are being lashed.

       17. Embuggers only very aged men while being fucked.

       18. Has a regular intrigue with his son.

       19. Will embugger none but monsters, or blackamoors, or
deformed persons.

       20. In order to combine incest, adultery, sodomy and sacrilege,
he embuggers his married daughter with a Host.

       That evening the four friends avail themselves of Zlamir's
       ass.

       THE 5TH. 21. He has two men alternately fuck and flagellate him
while he embuggers a young boy and while an old man sheds a turd into
his mouth. He eats the turd.

       22. Two men take turns fucking him, one in the mouth, the other
in the ass; this exercise must last no less than three hours by the
clock. He swallows the fuck emanating from him who fucks him in the
mouth.

       23. He has himself fucked by ten men, whom he pays so much by
the discharge; during a given day he withstands as many as twenty-four
without himself discharging.

       24. For the purposes of ass-fuckery, he prostitutes his wife,
his daughter, and his sister, and watches the proceedings.

       25. He employs eight men at a time: one in his mouth, one in
his ass, one beneath his left testicle, one beneath his right; he
frigs two others, each with one hand, he lodges a seventh between his
thighs and the eighth frigs himself upon his face.

       That evening, the Duc deflowers Michette's ass and causes her
frightful pain.

       THE 6TH. 26. He has an elderly man embuggered in his presence;
several times over the prick is removed from that ancient asshole, it
is placed in the mouth of the examiner, who sucks it, then sucks the
old man's prick, sucks his asshole, and penetrates it while he who has
been fucking the old man now embuggers the lecher, and is lashed by
the lecher's governess. For the lecher is still a young man.

       27. He vigorously constricts the neck of the fifteen-year-old
girl he is embuggering - choking her neck has the effect of tightening
her anus; meanwhile, he is flogged with a bull's pizzle.

       28. He has large spheres of quicksilver inserted into his
bowels. These spheres rise up in his entrails, then descend, and
during the excessive titillation caused thereby, he sucks pricks,
swallows fuck, has shit out of whores' asses, bolts turds. This
ecstasy lasts a good two hours.

       29. He would have himself embuggered by the father while he
sodomizes that father's son and daughter.

       Michette's ass is surrendered to the company that evening.
Durcet selects Martaine for his bedroom companion, following the
precedent established by the Duc, who has Duclos, and by Curval, who
has Fanchon; Martaine has begun to exert upon Durcet much the same
lubricious influence Duclos exerts upon Blangis.

       THE 7TH. 30. He fucks a turkey whose head is gripped between
the legs of a girl lying on her belly - while in action he looks quite
as if he were embuggering the girl. While he is at work he is being
sodomized, and the moment he discharges, the girl cuts the turkey's
throat.

       31. He fucks a goat from behind while being flogged; the goat
conceives and gives birth to a monster. Monster though it be, he
embuggers it.

       32. He embuggers bucks.

       33. Wishes to see a woman discharge after having been frigged
by a dog; and he shoots the dog dead while its head is between the
woman's thighs. But he does not harm the woman.

       34. Embuggers a swan after having popped a Host up into its
ass; then strangles the bird upon discharging.

       This same evening, the Bishop embuggers Cupidon for the first
time.

       THE 8TH. 35. He has himself placed in a specially prepared
wickerwork structure provided with an opening at one end; against this
opening he places his asshole after having anointed it with mare's
fuck. The structure he is in represents a mare's body and is covered
with horsehide. A genuine horse is fetched in, mounts the artificial
mare, embuggers him and meanwhile he fucks a pretty white bitch he has
with him in the basket.

       36. He fucks a cow, it conceives and gives birth to a monster
which, shortly thereafter, he fucks.

       37. In a similar basket he places a woman who receives a bull's
member in her cunt. He watches this entertaining spectacle.

       38. He has a tamed serpent which he introduces into his anus;
while being thus sodomized, he embuggers a cat in a basket. Firmly
contained therein, the animal can do him no harm.

       39. He fucks a she-ass while having himself embuggered by an
ass. (For this delight an elaborate machine is indispensable. We will
give a description of it elsewhere.)

       That evening, Cupidon's ass is presented to the society.

       THE 9TH. 40. He fucks the nostrils of a goat which meanwhile is
licking his balls; and during this exercise, he is alternately flogged
and has his asshole licked.

       41. He embuggers a sheep while a dog is licking his asshole.

       42. He embuggers a dog whose head is cut off while he
       discharges.

       43. He obliges a whore to frig a donkey, he is fucked while
observing this spectacle.

       44. He fucks a monkey's asshole, the animal is enclosed in a
basket; while being sodomized, the monkey is tormented in order that
its anus will constrict about the libertine's member.

       That evening, the tenth week's festival is celebrated by the
marriage of Bum-Cleaver and Michette; the union is consummated, 'tis a
dolorous experience for the bride.

       THE 10TH. Martaine announces that she is going to move on to
another passion, and that the whip, of central importance in
Champville's contributions of December, will enjoy only a secondary
one in hers.

       45. The procuress is obliged to find him girls guilty of some
felony or other; he arrives, frightens them, says that they are going
certainly to be arrested but that he will take it upon himself to
protect them provided they will submit to a violent fustigation, and,
afraid as they are, they let themselves be whipped till they bleed.

       46. Has a woman with beautiful hair brought to him, saying he
simply wishes to examine her hair; but he cuts it off very
traitorously and discharges upon seeing her melt into tears and bewail
her misfortune, at which he laughs immoderately.

       47. With all sorts of attendant ceremonies, she enters a dark
room. She sees no one there, but overhears a conversation regarding
her - give details of this conversation - which is of a nature to
frighten her nearly to death. Finally, she receives a deluge of slaps
and blows without knowing whence they come; she hears the cries
accompanying a discharge, then is taken out of the room.

       48. She enters a kind of subterranean sepulcher which is lit by
nothing but a few oil lamps; they reveal all the horror of the place.
After a moment, during which she is able to observe everything, all
the lamps are extinguished, a horrible series of screams and the
rattling of chains are heard, she collapses in a swoon; if she does
not faint, the noises are multiplied until finally she does fall
unconscious from terror. Once unconscious, a man swoops down upon her
and embuggers her, then abandons her, and valets later come to her
rescue; he must have very young and very inexperienced girls. Novices,
if possible.

       49. She enters a similar place, but provide a few details to
distinguish it from the sepulcher above. She is stripped, thrust naked
into a coffin, the coffin's lid is nailed down, and the rhythm of the
hammer driving the nails finally excites the man's discharge.

       That afternoon, Zelmire was taken down to the cellars we have
previously mentioned, which had been prepared in the manner we have
just described. The four friends are there, naked and equipped with
weapons; Zelmire swoons, and while she is unconscious, Curval
depucelates her bum. The Prsident has been seized by the very same
sentiments of love (mixed with lubric rage) for this girl that the Duc
has for Augustine.

       THE 11TH. 50. The same Duc de Florville, of whom Duclos spoke
on the 29th of November, and of whom Desgranges, in her fifth story,
will speak on the 26th of February, wishes to have the corpse of a
beautiful and recently murdered girl placed upon a bed covered with
black satin; he fondles the body, explores its every nook and cranny,
and embuggers it.

       51. Another individual requires two corpses, those of a boy and
of a girl, and he embuggers the youth's dead body while kissing the
buttocks of the girl's and driving his tongue into its anus.

       52. He receives the girl in a small room filled with most
convincing wax representations of dead bodies, they are all pierced in
various ways. He recommends that the girl make her choice, saying he
intends to kill her in whatever way she prefers, inviting her to
choose the corpse whose wounds please her most.

       53. He binds her to an authentic corpse, knee to knee, mouth to
mouth, and flogs her until the back of her body is covered with blood.

       Zelmire's ass is made the evening's treat, but before being
served up, she is subjected to a trial, and she is advised that she
will be killed that night; she believes what she is told but, instead
of dispatching her, Messieurs are content each to give her a hundred
lashes after having generously embuggered her, and Curval takes her to
bed with him. She is further embuggered all night.

       THE 12TH. 54. The girl must be menstruating. She arrives at his
home, a valet conducts her to a room in the cellar where the libertine
stands awaiting her, but he is near a kind of reservoir of icy water,
more than twelve feet across and eight deep; it is concealed in such a
way the girl does not notice it. She approaches the man, he topples
her into it, and discharges the instant he hears the splash; she is
pulled back out at once, but as she is menstruating, severe disability
is the very frequent result of her adventure.

       55. He lowers her into a very deep well and shouts down after
her that he is about to fill it with large stones; he flings in a few
clods of earth to frighten her, and discharges into the well, his seed
landing on the naked whore's head.

       56. He has a pregnant woman brought to him and terrifies her
with threats and words, flogs her, continuing his ill-treatment of her
until she either has a miscarriage there and then, or will surely have
one when she returns home. If she disgorges her fruit while under his
roof, she receives double payment.

       57. He locks her into a black dungeon, surrounded by cats,
rats, and mice; he gives her to understand she has been put there for
the rest of her life, and every day he goes to her door, frigs
himself, and banters with her.

       58. He inserts sheafs of straw in her ass, ignites them, and
watches her buttocks sizzle as the straw burns short.

       That evening, Curval announces he will take Zelmire to be his
wife, and does indeed publicly marry her. The Bishop officiates at the
wedding, the Prsident repudiates Julie who therewith falls into the
greatest discredit, but her libertinage speaks strongly in her favor
and the Bishop is disposed to protect her somewhat until the time
shall arrive for him to declare himself entirely for her - he will so
declare himself later on.
       More clearly than ever before, upon this particular evening his
associates notice Durcet's teasing hatred for Adelaide; he torments
her, vexes her, she wails and is melancholy. And her father, the
Prsident, does not by any means give her his support.

       THE 13TH. 59. He attaches a girl to a St. Andrew's cross
suspended in the air, and whips her with all his might, flaying her
entire back. After which, he unties her and casts her out through a
window, but mattresses are there to lighten her fall, upon hearing
which he discharges. Give further details of the scene in order to
justify his reaction.

       60. He has her swallow a drug which unhinges her imagination
and causes her to see horrible things in the room. She fancies the
room is being flooded, sees the water rise, climbs upon a chair, but
still the water mounts, reaches her, and she is told that she has no
alternative but to leap in and swim; she plunges, but falls upon the
stone floor and injures herself badly. 'Tis at this point the
libertine discharges; previously, he has taken much pleasure in
kissing her ass.

       61. He holds her suspended by a rope that runs up through a
pulley affixed to the top of a tower; he stands at a window, she hangs
directly outside and opposite him. He frigs himself and threatens to
sever the rope as he discharges. While all this is afoot he is being
flogged, and earlier he induces the whore to shit for him.

       62. She is held by four slender cords, each attached to one of
her limbs. She is held thus in a very cruel and painful position; a
trap door is opened beneath her and a charcoal brazier, very hot, is
discovered to her view: if the cords break, she falls thereupon. The
rou meddles with the cords, strains them, cuts one while discharging.
Sometimes he suspends the girl in the same attitude, places a weight
upon her belly, then suddenly jerks all four cords, pulling her up,
and in so doing rupturing her stomach and tearing her muscles. She
remains where she is until he discharges.

       63. He binds her to a low stool; suspended a foot above her
head is a dagger whose point is filed needle sharp; the dagger hangs
by a hair - if the hair snaps, the dagger drives into her skull. The
libertine frigs himself while watching his victim's anxious
contortions. An hour later, he frees her and bloodies her buttocks
with light jabs of the same dagger which, he would like to have her
remark, pricks very nicely; he discharges upon her bloodsoaked ass.

       That evening, the Bishop depucelates Colombe's bum, and after
his discharge lashes her with a whip, for he cannot bear to have a
girl cause him to discharge.

       THE 14TH. 64. He embuggers a young novice who knows nothing of
the ways of the world, and as he discharges, he fires two pistol shots
very close to her ear. The powder singes her hair.

       65. He makes her sit down in an armchair balanced on springs;
her weight releases a number of springs connected to iron rings which
bind her tightly to the chair. Certain levers and gears advance twenty
daggers until their points graze her skin; the man frigs himself, the
while explaining that the least movement of the chair will cause her
to be stabbed. He sprays his fuck upon her, in so doing touching the
chair very delicately with his foot.

       66. A bascule carries her down into a small crypt hung in black
and furnished with a prie-dieu, a coffin, and an assortment of death's
heads. She sees six specters armed with clubs, swords, pistols,
sabers, poignards, and lances, and each is about to pierce her in a
different place. Overcome by fear, she sways, is about to fall; the
man enters, catches her in his arms, and flogs her until he is weary,
then discharges as he embuggers her. If she is unconscious at the time
he enters, and this is frequently the case, his lash restores her to
her senses.

       67. She enters a room in a tower, in its center she sees a
large charcoal brazier; upon a table, poison and a dirk; she is
allowed to choose the manner whereby she is to perish. It generally
happens that she selects poison. 'Tis a variety of opiate which
plunges her into a profound drowsiness; while the spell lasts, the
libertine embuggers her. He is the same personage Duclos cited on the
27th of November and of whom Desgranges will say more on the 6th of
February.

       68. The same gentleman who will figure in Desgranges' story of
the 16th of February goes through the entire ceremony of preparing to
decapitate the girl; just as the blow falls, a rope suddenly snatches
the girl's body away, the axe-blade sinks three inches into the block.
If the rope does not drag the girl away, she dies. He discharges while
bringing down the axe. But prior to this, he has embuggered her as she
lies with her neck upon the block.

       Colombe's ass is plumbed by the society that evening, and
Messieurs pretend to cut off her head. They are accomplished actors.

       THE 15TH. 69. He slips a noose around the whore's throat and
hangs her. Her feet rest upon a stool, a cord is tied to one leg of
the stool, he sits in an armchair, watching and having the whore's
daughter frig him. When he discharges, he pulls the cord, the whore
hangs, he leaves, valets enter and cut the whore down. A leech lets
some blood from one of her veins and she returns to life, but these
attentions are given her without the libertine's knowledge. He goes
off to bed with the whore's daughter and sodomizes her all night long,
while doing so telling her he has hanged her mother. Have Martaine say
that Desgranges will refer to him again.

       70. He holds the girl by the ears and walks her around the
room, discharging as he parades with her.

       71. He pinches the girl's body, nipping her everywhere save
upon the breast, till she turns black and blue.

       72. He pinches her breasts, molests them, and kneads them until
they are completely bruised.

       73. He writes letters and words upon her breasts, working with
a needle which has a poisoned tip; her breasts become infected, and
she suffers excruciatingly.

       74. Drives between one and two thousand pins into her breasts,
and discharges when he has covered them.

       More libertine with every passing day, Julie is discovered
frigging herself with Champville. The Bishop affords her additional
protection and thereafter admits her into his bedchamber, as the Duc
has Duclos, Durcet Martaine, and Curval Fanchon. Julie confesses that
at the time of her repudiation, having been condemned to sleep in the
stables with the other animals, she appealed to Champville and was
taken into her chamber; they have been bedding together ever since.

       THE 16TH. 75. He buries large hatpins in the girl's flesh,
dotting her entire body, her nipples included; he discharges after
having driven home the last pin. Desgranges will return to the same
enthusiast in her fourth story of the 27th of February.

       76. He gives her a great deal to drink, then sews up her cunt
and asshole; he leaves her thus sealed up till he remarks she is nigh
to collapsing from the need to piss and shit, two activities which are
impossible in the state she is in; or else he waits until the weight
of the shit and the pressure of the piss finally breaks the stitches.

       77. Four gentlemen enter the room and cuff the girl, strike and
kick her until she falls. When she is down, all four mutually frig one
another and discharge.

       78. She is deprived of air, then given air, then 'tis taken
away again. She is lodged within a pneumatic machine.

       To celebrate the end of the eleventh week, the wedding of
Colombe and Antinos takes place that day, and is consummated. The
Duc, who has been indulging in some prodigious cunt-fuckery with
Augustine, has been seized by a lubricious fury: he has had Duclos
hold her, and has given her three hundred lashes distributed between
the middle of her back and her calves, and, after that, has embuggered
Duclos while kissing Augustine's flogged ass. Directly after having
molested her, he does some foolish things, for his head is completely
giddy: he has her sit beside him at table, will touch no food save
what he has out of her mouth, dotes upon her, and does a thousand
other things, all very illogical and very libertine. But he and his
confreres are men of that strange turn of character.

       THE 17TH. 79. He binds the girl belly down upon a dining table
and eats a piping hot omelette served upon her buttocks. He uses an
exceedingly sharp fork.

       80. He immobilizes her head above a grill, lights a brisk fire,
and roasts her until she loses consciousness, embuggering her
steadily.

       81. He gently toasts the skin of her breasts and buttocks,
proceeding very gradually, and using sulphur-tipped matches.

       82. He uses candles and extinguishes them again and again by
snuffing them out in her cunt, her asshole, and upon her nipples.

       83. With a match he sears her eyelids; this prevents her from
sleeping soundly that night, for she cannot close her eyes.

       That evening, the Duc depucelates Giton, who finds the
experience discomfiting, for the Duc is enormous, fucks with great
brutality, and Giton is, after all, only twelve.

       THE 18TH. 84. Pointing a pistol at her heart, he obliges her to
chew and swallow a live coal, and then he washes out her cunt with
aqua fortis.

       85. He has her dance the olivettes. Naked, she is to dance
round four pillars; but the only path her naked feet can tread is
studded with shards of broken glass and bits of sharp metal and
pointed tacks and nails; by each pillar stands a man, a bundle of
switches in his hand, and he lashes whichever side of her body she
offers every time she passes by him. She is thus obliged to run a
certain number of turns around, it all depending upon whether she is
more or less attractive. The most beautiful are harried the most.

       86. He strikes her violently in the face until the blows of his
fist bring blood from her nose, and he continues yet a while longer,
the blood notwithstanding; he discharges and mixes his fuck with the
blood she has lost.

       87. Employing very well-heated tongs, he pinches her flesh, and
mainly her buttocks, her mons veneris and her breasts. Desgranges will
have more to say about this personage.

       88. Upon various parts of her naked, reclining body, especially
the more sensitive areas, he places little mounds of gunpowder, then
sets fire to them.

       Giton's ass is made public property that evening, and after
this ceremony, he is flogged by Curval, the Duc, and the Bishop, who
have fucked him.

       THE 19TH. 89. He inserts a cylinder of gunpowder in her cunt,
removes the cylinder, leaves the powder there; he puts a match to the
charge and ejaculates upon seeing the flames dart forth. Earlier, he
has kissed her ass.

       90. He soaks her everywhere from head to foot with brandy,
brings a match near and entertains himself with the spectacle of this
poor girl all covered with flames. Then he discharges. He repeats the
same operation two or three times.

       91. He gives her bowels a rinsing with boiling oil.

       92. He introduces a red-hot iron into her anus, another into
her cunt, after having thoroughly whipped the latter.

       93. He likes to trample upon a pregnant woman until she aborts.
Prior to this he whips her.

       That same evening, Curval depucelates Sophie's bum, but this
ordeal succeeds another: she has first been given one hundred lashes
by each of the friends and is streaming blood. Directly Curval has
discharged into her ass, he offers to pay the society five hundred
louis for permission to take her down to the cellars that very evening
and to be given a free hand with her. Curval's request is rejected, he
re-embuggers her, and upon emerging from her ass after this second
discharge, he gives her a kick which sends her sprawling upon a
mattress fifteen feet away. He revenges himself upon Zelmire, whom he
flogs till his arm aches.

       THE 20TH. 94. He appears to be caressing the girl who is
frigging him, she suspects nothing; but at the moment he discharges,
he seizes her head and batters it against the wall. The blow is so
strong and so unexpected that she usually falls unconscious.

       95. They are four libertines assembled; they judge a girl, and,
ultimately disagreeing upon what punishment to inflict, decide to
sentence her individually. All in all, she receives one hundred
strokes of the whip; each juror metes out twenty-five of them: the
first flogs her from the back to the loins, the second from the loins
to the calves, the third from the neck to the navel, breasts included,
the fourth from the belly to the shins.

       96. Using a pin, he pricks each of her eyes, each nipple, and
her clitoris.

       97. He drops molten sealing wax upon her buttocks, into her
cunt, and upon her breasts.

       98. He opens the veins in one arm and bleeds her until she
       faints.

       Curval suggests they bleed Constance because of her pregnancy;
and bled she is, until she collapses, 'tis Durcet who acts as her
leech. That evening, Messieurs avail themselves of Sophie's ass, and
the Duc proposes she be bled also, it could not possibly do her any
harm, no, on the contrary, they might make a nice pudding of her blood
for tomorrow's luncheon. His idea is acclaimed, Curval now plays the
leech, Duclos frigs him while he operates, and he wishes to make the
puncture at the same moment his fuck departs his balls; and he makes a
generous puncture, but his blade finds the vein none the less. Despite
it all, Sophie has pleased the Bishop, who adopts her for his wife,
repudiating Aline, who falls into the greatest discredit.

       THE 21ST. 99. He bleeds both of her arms and would have her
remain standing while her blood flows; now and again he stops the
bleeding and flogs her, then opens the wounds again, and this
continues until she collapses. He only discharges when she faints.
Earlier in the game he had her shit for him.

       100. He bleeds her from all four of her limbs and from her
jugular vein too, and frigs himself while watching the five fountains
of blood.

       101. He lightly scarifies her flesh, concentrating upon her
buttocks, but neglecting her breasts.

       102. He scarifies her vigorously, cutting deep, devoting
particular attention to her breasts and especially to her nipples, and
to the environs of her asshole when he turns his attentions to her
behind. Next, he cauterizes the wounds with a red-hot iron.

       103. He is bound hand and foot, as if he were a wild beast, and
he is draped in a tiger's skin. When thus readied, he is excited,
irritated, whipped, beaten, his ass is frigged; opposite him is a
plump young girl, naked and tied by her feet to the floor, by her neck
to the ceiling, in such wise she cannot stir. When the rou is all
a-sweat, his captors free him, he leaps upon the girl, bites her
everywhere and above all her clitoris and her nipples, which he
generally manages to remove with his teeth. He roars and cries like a
ferocious animal, and discharges while shrieking. The girl must shit,
he eats her turd upon the floor.

       That evening, the Bishop depucelates Narcisse; he is
surrendered to the society the same evening, so that the festival of
the 23rd will not be disturbed. Before embuggering him, the Duc has
him shit into his mouth and render him, together with the turd, his
predecessors' fuck. And then, after having sodomized the lad, Blangis
scourges him.

       THE 22ND. 104. He pulls out her teeth and scratches her gums
with needles. Sometimes he heats the needles.

       105. He breaks one of her fingers, several upon occasion.

       106. Employing a heavy hammer, he flattens one of her feet.

       107. He removes a hand, sawing through the wrist.

       108. While discharging, he batters in her front teeth with a
hammer. He is very fond of sucking her mouth before proceeding to the
major phase of his operation.

       The Duc depucelates Rosette in the rear that evening, and the
same instant his prick sounds her ass, Curval extracts one of the
little girl's teeth - this in order that she may experience two
terrible pains at the same time. So that the morrow's festival not be
disturbed, her ass is made generally available that same evening. When
Curval has discharged thereinto (and he is the last of the four to do
so), he sends the child spinning with a blow of his fist.

       THE 23RD. Because of the holiday, only four are related.

       109. He amputates one foot.

       110. He breaks one of her arms as he embuggers her.

       111. Using a crowbar, he breaks a bone in her leg and embuggers
her after doing so.

       112. He ties her to a stepladder, her limbs being attached in a
peculiar manner, a cord is tied to the ladder; he pulls the cord, the
ladder falls. Sometimes she breaks one limb, sometimes another.

       Upon that day Invictus was married to Rosette; their wedding
celebrated the twelfth week's festival. That evening, Rosette is bled
after she has been fucked, and Aline is likewise bled after Hercule
has fucked her; both are bled in such a way their blood spurts upon
our libertines' thighs and pricks. Messieurs frig themselves while
looking on, and discharge when both have fainted.

       THE 24TH. 113. He cuts off one of her ears. (See to it that you
specify what these persons do by way of a prelude to their major
stunt.)

       114. He slits her lips and nostrils.

       115. After having sucked and bitten it, he pierces her tongue
with a hot iron.

       116. He tears several nails from her fingers, and also from her
toes.

       117. He cuts off one of her fingers at the last joint.

       And, upon close questioning, the storyteller having said that,
provided the wound is dressed at once, such a mutilation has no
undesirable aftereffects, Durcet straightway cuts the end off one of
Adelaide's fingers, for his lewd jesting and teasing have been
increasingly directed against her. His practical joke fetches a
discharge from him, his flow of fuck is accompanied by unheard-of
transports.

       That same evening, Curval depucelates Augustine's ass, even
though she is now the Duc's wife. Her anguish, her sufferings. Curval
rages against her afterward; he conspires with the Duc to take her
down to the cellars without further delay, and they tell Durcet that
if they are granted permission to carry out the expedition, they in
their turn will allow him to dispatch Adelaide at once, but the Bishop
delivers an impassioned sermon to those truants, and obtains the
promise that they will restrain themselves yet a little longer for the
sake of their own pleasure. Curval and the Duc hence limit themselves
to giving Augustine a ferocious whipping. Both lash her at once.

       THE 25TH. 118. He distills fifteen or twenty drops of molten
lead into her mouth and burns her gums with aqua fortis.

       119. After having had her lick his beshitted ass with her
tongue, he snips off the end of that same tongue, then, when once she
is mutilated, he embuggers her.

       120. He employs a machine involving a hollow steel bit which
bores holes in the flesh and which, when removed, takes with it a
round chunk of flesh which is as long as the drill has penetrated; the
machine bores on automatically if not withdrawn.

       121. He transforms a boy of ten or twelve into a eunuch.

       122. With a pair of pliers isolating and raising each nipple,
he cuts off the same with a pair of scissors.

       That same evening, Augustine's ass is made generally available.
While embuggering her, Curval had wished to kiss Constance's breast,
and upon discharging, he made off with a nipple in his teeth, but as
her wound was treated and bandaged at once, Messieurs assured one
another that the accident would have no harmful effect upon the child
in her womb. Curval says to his colleagues, in answer to their
pleasantries upon his mounting rage against Constance, that he has no
control over the fury she inspires in him.

       When in his turn the Duc embuggers Augustine, his own powerful
feelings for that beautiful girl are exhaled with incomparable
violence: had the others not kept an eye upon him, he would have
injured her, either while mauling her breasts or squeezing her neck
with all his strength as he discharged. Once again he asks the society
to put her in his power, but he is requested to wait for Desgranges'
narrations. His brother entreats him to be patient and abstain until
he himself sets an example by dispatching Aline; haste, the Bishop
points out, makes waste; and why spoil the latter part of the holiday
by upsetting a schedule admirably designed to guarantee them a daily
fare of moderation, wherein only happiness lies? However, the Duc will
not listen to reason, he cannot any longer hold himself in check, and
so, since he absolutely must torture the lovely girl, he is allowed to
inflict a light wound upon her arm. He executes it upon the fleshy
part of her left forearm, sucks blood from the cut he has made, and
discharges; Augustine is so skillfully patched up that four days later
no trace of the Duc's teeth marks is to be seen.

       THE 26TH. 123. He breaks a bottle of thin glass against the
face of the girl, who is bound and unable to protect herself; before
doing so, he sucked her mouth with great vigor and sucked her tongue
also.

       124. He tears off both her legs, ties one of her hands behind
her back, puts a little stick into her free hand, and invites her to
defend herself. Then he attacks her, wielding his sword with great
vigor and dexterity, wounds her here and there, and finally discharges
upon her wounds.

       125. He stretches her upon a St. Andrew's cross, goes through
the ceremony of breaking her, strains but does not dislocate three of
her limbs, but does definitely break the fourth, either an arm or a
leg.

       126. Pistol in hand, he has her stand facing to the right and
lets fly with a charge which grazes her two breasts; he aims to shoot
away one of her little nipples.

       127. He has her crouch down twenty feet away and present her
buttocks; he shoots a bullet up her ass.

       That same evening, the Bishop depucelates Fanny's bum.

       THE 27TH. 128. The same man of whom Desgranges will speak on
the 24th of February flogs a pregnant woman upon the belly until she
miscarries; she must lay the egg in his presence, and he lashes her
till she does.

       129. He very tidily castrates a young lad of sixteen or
seventeen after having embuggered and whipped him.

       130. He must have a maiden brought to him, he slices off her
clitoris with a razor, then deflowers her with a cylinder of heated
iron, driving the device home with hammer blows.

       131. This personage performs an abortion when the woman's
pregnancy has entered its eighth month. He forces her to drink a
certain brew which brings the child out dead in a trice. Upon other
occasions, this libertine by his art causes the child to be born from
the mother's asshole. But the child emerges dead, and the woman's life
is gravely imperiled.

       132. He severs an arm.

       That evening, Fanny's ass is made generally available, Durcet
rescues her from a torture his colleagues had been preparing for her;
he takes her to be his wife, has the Bishop perform the marriage, and
repudiates Adelaide, who is submitted to the torture originally
readied for Fanny. It is however a paltry business after all: the Duc
embuggers her while Durcet breaks her finger.

       THE 28TH. 133. He cuts off both hands at the wrist and
cauterizes the wounds with a hot iron.

       134. He removes the tongue, cutting it at the roots, and
cauterizes it with a hot iron.

       135. He amputates one leg, usually having someone else cut it
off while he embuggers her.

       136. He extracts all her teeth, replacing each one with a
red-hot nail, which he secures in place with a hammer; he does this
directly after having fucked the woman in the mouth.

       137. He removes one eye.

       Julie is roundly whipped by everyone that evening and all her
fingers are pricked with a needle. This latter operation takes place
while the Bishop, who is passing fond of her, embuggers her.

       THE 29TH. 138. Allowing molten sealing wax to flow thereupon,
he blinds and ultimately dissolves first one eye, then the other.

       139. He neatly slices off one breast, then cauterizes the wound
with a hot iron. Desgranges will here interject that 'tis this same
man who made off with the nipple she is missing, and that she is
positively certain he ate it after having cooked it upon a griddle.

       140. He amputates both buttocks after having flogged and
embuggered her. It is believed that he too eats the meat.

       141. He shaves off both her ears.

       142. Clips off all the extremities, to wit: ten fingers, ten
toes, two nipples, one clitoris and the end of the tongue.

       That evening, Aline, after a vigorous whipping given her by the
four friends and an embuggery the Bishop performs for the last time,
is condemned to have a finger on either hand and a toe on either foot
cut off by each friend. Thus she loses a total of eight parts.

       THE 30TH. 143. He carves away several chunks of flesh,
selecting them from divers areas upon her body; he has them roasted
and obliges her to eat them with him. Desgranges will mention the same
man on the 8th and 17th of February.

       144. He cuts off a young boy's four limbs, embuggers the trunk,
feeds him well and allows him so to live; as the arms and legs were
not severed too close to the body, the boy lives for quite a while.
And the surgeon embuggers him steadily for approximately a year.

       145. He chains one of the girl's hands and secures the chain to
the wall; he leaves her thus, without food. Near her is a large knife,
and just beyond her reach sits an excellent meal: if she wishes to
eat, she has but to cut through her forearm; otherwise, she dies of
starvation. Prior to this he has embuggered her. He observes her
through a window.

       146. He manacles both mother and daughter; in order that they
both survive, one has got to get to the food placed not far away:
survival, that is, means that one must sacrifice a hand. He amuses
himself listening to them discuss their dilemma, and argue about who
is to resolve it.

       She recounts only four stories, for that evening the thirteenth
week's festival is to take place. During it, the Duc, acting in the
capacity of a woman, is married to Hercule, who is to be the husband;
acting now as a man, the Duc takes Zphyr to be his wife. The young
bardash who, as the reader is aware, possesses the prettiest ass
amongst the eight boys, is dressed as a girl, and so clad appears as
beautiful as the goddess of love. The ceremony is consecrated by the
Bishop and transpires within the sight of the entire household. The
dear little Zphyr surrenders his virginal bum to the Duc, who finds
all his pleasure therein, but much trouble making a successful entry;
Zphyr is rather badly torn, and bleeds profusely. Hercule fucks the
Duc throughout this operation.

       THE 31ST. 147. He plucks out both her eyes and leaves her
locked in a room, saying that she has before her what she needs to
eat, that she has but to get up and search for it. But in order to
reach the food she must cross a broad plate of iron, which, of course,
she cannot see, and which is kept heated to a very high temperature.
Situated at a window, he amuses himself watching how she manages: will
she burn herself, or will she prefer to perish from hunger? She has
been, previously, very soundly whipped.

       148. He subjects her to the rope torture; this consists in
having one's four limbs tied to ropes, then one is raised high in the
air and suddenly dropped from a considerable height, then raised, then
dropped; each fall dislocates and sometimes breaks the limbs, because
one never quite falls to the ground, the ropes halting one just a
short distance above it.

       149. He inflicts upon her a quantity of deep wounds into which
he pours boiling pitch and molten lead.

       150. The moment after she gives birth to a child, he binds her
hand and foot, and ties her child not far away from her. The infant
wails, she is unable to get to it. And thus she must watch it expire.
Then he steps up and lashes the mother, aiming his whip-strokes at her
cunt and managing the thing so that the interior of her vagina is well
tickled. He himself is usually the child's father.

       151. He gives her copiously to drink, then sews up her cunt,
her asshole and her mouth as well, and leaves her thus until the water
bursts through its conduits, or until she dies.

       (Determine why there is one too many; if one is to be deleted,
suppress the last, for I believe I have already used it.)

       That same evening, Messieurs avail themselves of Zphyr's ass,
and Adelaide is condemned to a rude fustigation, after which a hot
iron is brought very close to the interior of her vagina, to her
armpits, and she is slightly scorched beneath each nipple. She endures
it all like a heroine and frequently invokes God. This further arouses
her persecutors.
