Have we not the law of agnatic-cognatic succession, permitting a noblewoman to inherit lands and titles, if a male heir is lacking? If thou would advance the cause of women, perchance thou shalt oppose our French enemies, for it is in those lands in which such a law is lacking, that women are truly oppressed.
