LA MuJER EMANCIpADA

La mujer data del vestido; antes no
era mas que una hembra. Pero el dia
en- que velada y cOnsagrada por el We
10 como sacerdotisa Y guardsdora de
su cuerpo, pudo por 81 sola altar de
satar el nudo de su cintur6n faia, ese
dia entr6 en- possession de su persona '
conoei6 el pudor
Sigue pasando el tempo; la civiliza
ei6n cfece aun Y va a buscar Levan
te, en- las hojas del moral, una tela,
en- ciertO modO adrea, Y esparce sobre
ella Ia inagotablc paleta de Ia aurora.
Y la mujer, hasta entonces esclava, do
ma al seHor su vez Y ejerce sobre 6l
Ia seduction terrible de csta nueva be
lleza, nacida baio sus dedOs de su
arte, misteriosa, armOniosa, fOrmada
de piegues coiores, de estremecimien-
tos ~ perfumes.
A este preeio eompraba Ia mujer su
libertad v su dignidad. I'm otro item
DO sc deiaha srrebatar su amor; EN-
adelante 10 dara vOluntariamente. Y
hoy dfa altiva y libre, maiestuosa y
dulce en- medic de sn magestad, arras
ira, dejandolos fotar al viento, todos
los coIOres del prisma, en- la seda de
su chal.
No solamente ha sacado el vestido a
la mujer de la promiscuidad, sino tam
bien al hOmbre mismo, pues marca con
sello distimto Ia diferencia de fnnciO
mes. III sacerdote lieva I'M traje Y otrc
el magistrate, y de esta suerte puede
cada unO ocupar su puesto, a primera
vista, sin desorden Y sin tumulto Y ex
poner de ese modo Ia vista lie todo'
la diversidad armoniosa de Ia jerar
quia.
