Eunuchism display'd
describing all the different sorts of eunuchs : the esteem they have met with in the world, and how they came to be made so : wherein principally is examin'd, whether thay are capable of marriage, and if they ought to be suffer'd to enter into that state : the whole confirm'd by the authority of civil, canon, and common law, and illustrated with many remarkable cases by way of precedent : also a comparison between signior Nicolini and the three celebrated eunuchs now at Rome, viz. Pasqualini, Pauluccio, and Jeronimo (or Momo) : with several observations on modern eunuchs : occasion'd by a young lady's falling in love with Nicolini, who sung in the opera at the Hay-Market, and to whom she had like to have been married
