the courtesan has rested on the brow of Potiphar's wife.
The religious world persists in regarding her as an
abandoned woman who wickedly strove to lead an
immaculate he-virgin astray. The crime of which she
stands accused is so unspeakably awful that even after
the lapse of ages we cannot refer to the miserable
creature without a moan. Compared with her infamous
conduct old Lot's dalliance with his young daughters and
David's ravishment of Uriah's wife appear but venial
faults, or even shine as spotless virtues. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
