Description

Excerpt from Variety a Tale, for Married People A Gentle Maid, of rural breeding, By Nature first, and then by reading, Was fill'd with all those soft sensations Which we restrain in near relations, Left future husbands should be jealous. And think their wive? too fond of fellows. The morning fun beheld her rove A Nymph, or Goddess of the grove! At eve she pac'd the dewy lawn, And call'd each clown she saw, a faun! Then, scudding homeward, lock'd her door, And turn some copious volume o'er.
