Ramachandran is no help. He uses the quote on page 183 and calls it "an old adage" but provides no source. Bill Goss College of the Rockies Box 8500, Cranbrook, BC 1-877-489-2687, ext.324 (toll free)

Schultz & Schultz had attributed the "hogamous, higamous..." ditty to William James in older editions of their history of psych text (e.g., it's on pages 182-183 of the 5th edition). Unfortunately, there is no source cited, so I don't know where the Schultzes got it. Interestingly, the story disappears in the 6th edition of their text...perhaps an indication that they came to question the accuracy of the story.
