husband_n by_o it_o show_v more_o confidence_n in_o their_o wife_n than_o discretion_n in_o themselves_o and_o as_o too_o much_o liberty_n spoil_v some_o wife_n so_o a_o strict_a watchful_a jealousy_n

that_o such_o young_a woman_n be_v as_o foolish_o guilty_a in_o receive_v such_o vain_a attribute_n as_o such_o young_a man_n be_v high_o profane_a in_o offer_v they_o thus_o man_n by_o the_o

will_v betray_v and_o the_o more_o you_o lady_n confide_v in_o their_o worth_n the_o more_o you_o will_v be_v deceive_v in_o their_o value_n so_o that_o it_o follow_v by_o the_o plain_a rule_n of_o

get_v such_o a_o predominant_a power_n over_o most_o young_a handsome_a woman_n and_o the_o most_o handsome_a be_v most_o subject_a to_o they_o that_o most_o of_o they_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o be_v

real_o if_o young_a lady_n will_v but_o take_v a_o steady_a resolution_n to_o resist_v and_o slight_v all_o young_a man_n vain_a courtship_n and_o place_n no_o such_o high_a estimation_n on_o their_o

lady_n cool_v in_o their_o reception_n of_o it_o and_o so_o make_v man_n despise_v woman_n beauty_n suitable_a to_o their_o slight_a man_n love_n and_o thus_o woman_n prudence_n will_v become_v man_n

they_o think_v the_o young_a woman_n in_o they_o have_v too_o little_a beauty_n but_o because_o they_o believe_v they_o shall_v meet_v there_o with_o too_o great_a a_o resistance_n by_o the_o care_n

lady_n and_o chief_o among_o they_o to_o such_o as_o be_v innocent_o and_o modest_o breed_v for_o such_o sort_n of_o young_a woman_n often_o entertain_v discourse_n and_o make_v acquaintance_n with_o

the_o best_a argument_n to_o bring_v up_o the_o rear_n of_o the_o discourse_n to_o leave_v the_o strong_a impression_n at_o the_o last_o so_o god_n be_v please_v to_o reserve_v for_o the_o last_o
