Civil Marriage
1 G
Divorce

The great use of
divorce is to
lessen keeping concubinage

2 7

Concubinage is
to marriage in
the slavish compliant state in
which the man
can repudiate
the woman at
pleasure and without
deliberation, without
-out reason and
without terms.
in divorce it
can not be done
but after deliberation
and on terms.

Every body must
be sensible that
this is a bad arrangement,
and
that it would
the less frequent
it were the better.
The narrow way
is to annex evil
and suffering to it.
the liberal way is
to give people the
choice of something
better.

There are four or
two branches:
the tactive positive or comparative,
and
the negative or
restrictive. The
positive is already
out of date: vogue the
negative will
be so ere long,
and will then appear
as absurd
as the positive.

What belongs to
marriage has
hitherto been under
the dominion
of the prejudice.

The object of
has been to
reduce the the quantum
of their pleasure:
the object of the wise
legislator, guided
by the principle
of utility is ought to
be to push it to
or rather to leave
it to rise to its
maximum: of
happiness to the
end of legislation government
and pleasure the
materials that happiness
is made of.

Ascetecism teaches
us to regard a the
pleasure derived from this
fource as in itself an
evil: and as capable
only by
accident of becoming
a good: whereas it is of
itself a good, and
as far as it goes the
greatest good, and
it is only an act by accident,
used in valuation
of some still

greater and immutable assignable
arguable mischief that it can be
justly termed an
evil.

Aristotle teaches
us to regard it
as a crime and
tolerates it only
certain conditions
as an unavoidable one and
only in as far as it is
a necessary one.
