how the germans have fallen. from > a woman who takes up devilish ways and plays a male role in coupling with another woman is most vile in my sight, and so is she who subjects herself to such a one in this evil deed (hildegard of bingen) and > the vice of the sodomites is an unparalleled enormity. it departs from the natural passion and desire, planted into nature by god, according to which the male has a passionate desire for the female. sodomy craves what is entirely contrary to nature. whence comes this perversion? without a doubt it comes from the devil. after a man has once turned aside from the fear of god, the devil puts such great pressure upon his nature that he extinguishes the fire of natural desire and stirs up another, which is contrary to nature.
