    Written in the late 19th century by H. G. Wells and first published in The Butterfly (September 1899), and collected in The Obliterated Man and Other Stories (December 1925), "A Vision of Judgment" is a short story in 9 sections. It portrays a Last Judgment in which God and the archangel Gabriel laugh at sinners and saints alike, embarrassing them until they flee "up the sleeve of God." After every human soul has taken shelter there, all of humanity, "enlightened" and "in new clean bodies," is given a second chance. God shakes them—or rather us—"out of his sleeve upon the planet he had given us to live upon, the planet that whirled about green Sirius for a sun," saying "now that you understand me and each other a little better. . . . try again."

    The Birchen Bouquet is a work of pornography first published around 1770, reprinted in 1826 by George Cannon, in 1860 by William Dugdale and again in 1881 by William Lazenby (when it was said to have been printed at Birchington-on-Sea). It consists of a compilation of flagellation stories, mainly of women by women, some taken from The Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine (Marcus notes the curious fact that some material from this fashion magazine was reprinted verbatim in pornographic works). Henry Spencer Ashbee described it as "very ordinary and insipid", expressing surprise at its frequent reprinting.
