Chapter 102 Chapter Six

Why Newlywed Men Are Excluded From Battlefields Panurge asked: "Excuse me, what law stipulates that new grape planters, new house builders and newly married men are exempted from military service for the first year?" "The law of Moses," replied Paiguguay. Panuge asked again: "Why can newly married men not go to war? I am too old to think about the grape growers; I just think of the grape harvesters. In the history of my life, there is no record at all. I only make living stones, and that is a human being." Paiguguay said: "According to my opinion, it is to allow them to enjoy the happiness of newly-married as much as possible in the first year, so as to have boys and girls and carry on the family line. In this way, if he dies on the battlefield in the second year, this quota will be given to his children. In addition, it is a sure way of ascertaining whether the wife of the deceased is fertile or sterile (a trial period of one year is sufficient, depending on the age of majority at the time of marriage), so that after the death of the first husband, her Marry the second. Those who are fertile, marry those who want to have more children; those who are not, marry those who don’t want children, and these people marry wives just for their ability, ability, beauty, consideration and housekeeping.”

Banurge said: "The missionaries of Valenna hate remarried widows the most, thinking that they are stupid and immoral." Paguguay said: "However, the heat of such a woman is higher than that of malaria every two days." Banuge said: "This is true. A priest named Angainan said when he was preaching in Balais that he didn't like women remarrying. He swore that he would rather sleep with a hundred girls than go to Gnaw an old widow, if not, and have the quickest devil in hell take his soul at once. "I think what you say is quite right and reasonable. However, if, according to the reasons you said, they are exempted from military service for one year, and during this year, they come again and again with the right of newlyweds (this is also just and due duty), drained the seminal vesicles of their semen, leaving them sluggish, weak, weak, and dry, so that when the day of battle came, they would rather plunge into the water with their luggage like ducks than follow the heroic The best fighters go to the field, where Ineo ① is fighting fiercely, and you are fighting for each other; under the banner of the God of Mars, they can't hit a blow, because the energy has already been spent on the bed curtain when you are with the goddess of beauty, How can you say that?

"It seems to be the case, because up to now, as with holy relics and monuments, we can see that in some orderly families, after a certain number of days, a newly married man is sent to visit his uncle-although Most of them have neither uncle nor aunt—actually, to separate him from his bride, to let him recuperate, to recover some strength and prepare to fight again. Just as King Bedouin sent us away after the Battle of Conapon—I Said us, because of me and Gurkaye ③—told us to go back to our hometown to recuperate. He still hasn’t found his hometown. When I was young, my grandpa’s godmother used to say to me:

Praying and chanting scriptures are the work of believers. ① See the fifth, sixth, and seventh chapters of Chapter 20 of "Old Testament? Deuteronomy". ① Ineo: The god of siege in Roman mythology. ② King Bedo, meaning beggar king, the author may have intended to refer to Charles VIII. He had no intention of fighting in Italy, and his soldiers refused to follow orders. The general he served. ③ Gourkaye, which means "the flute that attracts quail", may be a general who was fired by Charles VIII. When novices go into battle, one is better than two. "The reason why I have this idea is that grape growers can't eat grapes at all in the first year, let alone drink wine; house builders don't live in newly built houses in the first year, because they are afraid that the air will be thin and stuffy. Die inside, so Gallien says eruditely in the second volume of his Dyspnea.

"If I don't have a well-founded basis and a reasonable reason, I won't ask this question. Please don't be offended." ① Galen said in the eighth chapter of the seventh volume of "The Functions of the Human Body" that we should pay attention to the newly plastered houses and beware of thin air.
