[173] _Cf._ in this connexion the feuilleton of the _Vossische Zeitung_, No. 286, June 17, 1904. Jean Paul, also, was an enthusiast in theory and practice for such double love. He called it “simultaneous love.” The idea of simultaneous love has also been employed in a recently published French novel, “A la Merci de l’Heure,” by Jean Tarbel (Paris, 1907). The heroine has need of two lovers--a celebrated literary professor for head and heart, and in addition, a young physician for the gratification of her sensual needs. Contrariwise, Knut Hamsun, in “Pan,” and Guy de Maupassant in “Notre Cœur,” describe the double love of a man for a woman of the world and for a child of Nature.

In a French collection--“L’Amour par les Grands Écrivains,” by Julien Lemer, p. 14 (Paris, 1861)--we find the saying, “Ordinairement, lorsqu’on se marie par amour, il vient ensuite de la haine; c’est que j’ai vu de mes yeux” (“Ordinarily, when one marries for love, hate takes its place. I have seen it with my own eyes”). [176] _B. Z. am Mittag_, No. 210, September 7, 1906. [177] “Annales d’Hygiène Publique,” 1900, p. 340. [178] Elard H.

[182] § 1568 runs: “A husband or wife can sue for divorce when the wife or husband =by serious disregard of the duties entailed by marriage=, or by dishonourable or immoral conduct, has brought about so profound a disorder of the conjugal relationship that to the offended party the continuation of the marriage appears impossible. Gross ill-treatment is also to be regarded as a serious infringement of these duties.” It is clear that the emphasized passage is capable of manifold interpretations, and it thus compensates for the abolition of the earlier grounds for divorce based upon incompatibility of temper.
