Text

Gu, Hongming. The spirit of the Chinese people [ID D10756].
Gu schreibt : "In fact this 'gentleness' of the real Chinaman, in the Chinese woman, becomes sweet 'meekness'. The meekness, the submissiveness of the woman in China is like that of Milton's in the Paradise lost, who says to her husband : 'God is thy law, thou, mine ; to know no more. Is woman's happiest knowledge and her praise'.
