"Not to go on all-Fours; that is the Law. Are we not Men?

Not to suck up Drink; that is the Law. Are we not Men?

Not to eat Flesh or Fish; that is the Law. Are we not Men?

Not to claw the Bark of Trees; that is the Law. Are we not Men?

Not to chase other Men; that is the Law. Are we not Men?"

In Chapter 12 of the Island of Dr. Moreau, the narrator hears and experiences firsthand the ritual religion of the Beast Men, and the above recitation is part of what the humanoid animals say in their religious observance. There are other prohibitions which are only described generally but the Law prohibits anything that would in any way reflect an animal nature, and anything in particular that would encourage a Beast Man to revert to its original bestial state.
