To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In which esteem can never bear a part.
But when mankind are duly civiliz'd, The sex are honour d and their virtues priz'd, 63 'Tis then recogniz'd as the omniscient plan That woman be the equal friend of man, That those alike most dangerously misjudge 3 Who make her or a goddess, or a drudge.
NARCISSA.
Bound fast in fate's indissoluble tether, The paths of life the sexes trace together, Are fellow travellers, weal or woe betide, And when one slips the other's sure to slide, Thus 'tis recorded i...n th' historic page, In every nation, and in every age, When man's deprav'd by folly or by crimes, Woman becomes a sample of the times, Our foibles, themes of moral declamation, Are mostly lures to gain your approbation, For true it is, in every scheme we plan, We are but anglers for that odd-fish, man, Our very crimes, to catch male gudgeons Are but too well adapted to th' intent, 64 MENTOR.
For this cause fashion's whim whams are Her now no body, now three quarters waist, Her fickle followers play as many pranks.
