When their means are exhausted, they come to lose their chastity for money. Some commit suicide (Citizens think lightly of life). Swindling dens are used as a bait for travelling strangers, who are traders and pedlars. They are rendered insensible by the administration of drugs, and are robbed of their money, thus incapacitated to proceed with their journey "as one who has lost his way," which is truly pitiable.
As to brothels which are interspersed among family houses, (women) stand at the doors of them, showing off their charms and the noise in them is kept up all night. Further, there is a class of procurers who make it their sole business to entice women belonging to respectable families into these secret places of debauchery, when they lose their chastity. Worse than these are the class of procurers who kidnap and force women to become prostitutes.
Public morals are injured and destroyed, and the harm done is only too great.
