The doctor found out the secret of the boy’s malady within twenty-four
hours after his arrival. He had cohabited constantly with one of the
maids from the age of twelve and a half years until he was sixteen!
The lad was saved only because of his youth. He partially outgrew this
severe shock to his nervous system; but yet never fully developed the
intellectual powers with which Nature had endowed him. Young men who
marry too soon are in the same category. There is not one in a dozen who
is fully developed even at twenty-one years of age.
The case of the son of Napoleon I., Emperor of the French, was similar to
that above related. At the age of fifteen or sixteen he began his career
of sexual indulgence, which ended his life at the early age of twenty-one
years. He, too, was an amiable, inoffensive and studious youth—beloved
by his grandfather and by the whole Austrian Court; and though the son
of the most energetic man that modern times has produced, yet, from
his quiet and effeminate life, he scarcely attracted the least public
attention.
The present Sultan of Turkey is a living evidence of the effects of too
early indulgence in sexual intercourse. He is the son of a brave and
vigorous soldier, and with proper culture would doubtless have become
a great and good man. ABDUL MEDJID has been over twenty years on the
Turkish throne, and has hitherto impressed those who came in contact
with him simply as a weak and indolent young man, with good intentions,
but with neither nerve nor energy to carry them out. It was generally
believed, and with good reason, that in his case, as in that of so many
others of his race, the sensual indulgence begun in his boyhood had
destroyed every trace of masculine decision. No one who watched his
dreamy, listless expression, and saw his relaxed muscles, and lolling
attitude as he rode on horseback through the streets, could help feeling
that he reigned rather in virtue of foreign support than of his own
ability to command obedience.
