The story of Siamese twins

A wonderful two-headed girl is still on exhibition in New England. She sings duets by herself. She has a great advantage over the rest of her sex, for she never has to stop talking when she eats, and when she is not eating, she keeps both tongues going at once. She has a lover, and this lover is in a quandary, because at one and the same moment she accepted him with one mouth and rejected him with the other.

The story continues

This girl has two heads, four arms and four legs, but only one body, and she (or they) is (or are) seventeen years old. Now is she her own sister? Is she twins? And if the aforementioned young man marries her, will he be guilty of bigamy? Does she expect to have one vote or two? Has she the same opinions as herself on all subjects, or does she disagree with herself sometime? Would she feel insulted if she were to spit in her own face?
