Mr. Bettesworth praised his wife, and said, she was one often thousand, to think of recommending such a hypocritical slut; "for of all things, my be- loved Harriet, I detest hypocrisy ; but if it is your wish, command my services : I live but to oblige you. I ha. Ve an aunt in town, an elderly widow, of strict morals; she has a large family, all daughters ; and as you say she is notable and handy, she may perhaps suit her ; if not, she will procure her a sit- uation. I am going there in a few d...ays; she shall travel with me, and I will place her in a situation, where we shall have no farther trouble on her ac- count. " " Now you are a dear soul, " cried the un- suspecting, credulous wife, " and I shall love yon as 92 long as I live ; but I must not entirely abandon her; she may reform, and yet prove a worthy character; and 1 most sincerely hope she will. " Blind, infatuated woman ! whose love for an un- worthy obje- t had cast such a mist before her eyes, that she could not foresee she was now about to de- liver a tender innocent lamb into the jaws of a hun- gry wolf, who, when satiated with his victim, would deliver her into the clutches of a harpy, from botli of whom nothing but a miracle could save her!
