As butter is contained in milk, and molasses in sugar-cane, likewise semen is to be found in the organism of man. As long as man is not excited, the seed exists all through the body. Infinitesimally subtle the semen pervades the whole organism, expanding through it, like sound, light or water. The drugs meant to increase virility act in the manner of purgatives; forcibly they expel the semen (Su. I, 14).
