Excerpt from L'Oeuvre Libertine des Poètes du Xixe Siècle

En effet, qu'on ne s'y trompe point, la matière de ce livre n'est point frivole. Tout ce qui touche à la sexualité a une importance de premier ordre. On sait avec quel soin les philologues de tous les pays recueillent les moindres contes obscènes, les vers orduriers les plus insignifiants que la muse pariétaire se plaît à chanter.
