O height and depth of purity, which fears so much that the children will not know who their fathers are, because, forsooth, they must rely upon their mother's word instead of the hired certification of some priest of the Church, or the Law!

I would rather, much rather, be illegitimate according to the statutes of men, than illegitimate according to the unchanging law of Nature.
