een doing, returned to the house, mutually
promising to keep thoroughly secret all that had passed and agreeing
that no sign of unusual familiarity should escape us. I strongly
advised Mary to get some warm water and bathe her cunt well, for, as
may be supposed, I had taken the opportunity of teaching her the true
erotic language as applied to the organs of generation of both sexes,
and the name of the connection itself, "fucking."

Thus delightfully ended the first lesson in love taught to my sister,
and such was my first triumph over a maidenhead, double enhanced by the
idea of the close ties of parentage between us. In after-life, I have
always found the nearer we are related, the more this idea of incest
stimulates our passions and stiffens our pricks, so that if even we be
in the wane of life, fresh vigour is imparted by reason of the very
fact of our evasion of conventional laws.

We had both returned to the drawing-room for more than an hour before
the arrival of the ladies. Dear Mary complained of feeling sore and
stiff in every limb. I had advised her to lie down on the sofa and try
to sleep. I did the same, and happily we both dozed off, and never
awoke until the loud rat-tat of arrival at the house door roused us up.
I told Mary to hide all appearance of pain, and only to say, as an
excuse for going early to bed, that we had gone further afield than we
at first intended, and that she was very tired. We were both sent early
to bed, for I was still treated as quite a boy, and I was sound asleep
when my charming Mrs. B. woke me up by her warm caresses. I could well
have spared them that night, but when did one of my years not respond
to the endearments of the woman he loved, and who yielded all to him.
She sucked me dry as usual, and I slept soundly till morning.

The next three days passed without anything to record. Mary did not
allow her real soreness to appear, but heroically went through her
sufferings, for she told me afterwards she felt very severe pains all
over, doubtless her whole nervous system had been overexcited, and this
was the natural reaction; it was so far fortunate that not a shadow of
a chance of our having fresh connection occurred, so she had time to
perfectly recover from the ill effects of her first initiation into the
erotic raptures. I continued to have the relief each night of the
charming mouth of my loved and beautiful instructress. At last, the
abominable _menses_, as she called
