regulate_v all_o a_o woman_n action_n and_o carriage_n towards_o all_o man_n as_o certain_o it_o ought_v that_o woman_n will_v never_o be_v so_o imprudent_a as_o to_o allow_v one_o freedom_n to_o

they_o to_o be_v both_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n when_o in_o deed_n they_o be_v very_o often_o far_o from_o be_v so_o for_o though_o every_o true_a friend_n must_v be_v a_o true_a lover_n yet_o every_o pretend_v lover_n be_v not_o a_o true_a friend_n as_o many_o lady_n can_v witness_v by_o woeful_a experience_n but_o if_o venus_n love_n have_v then_o the_o predominant_a power_n over_o

to_o fancy_v another_o man_n better_o than_o he_o a_o common_a fate_n that_o attend_v most_o beauty-lover_n and_o so_o they_o grow_v to_o dislike_v one_o another_o for_o great_a beauty_n though_o it_o

a_o mere_a flashy_a airy_a amorous_a fancy_n as_o little_a durable_a as_o summer_n rain_n or_o winter_n sun_n and_o therefore_o that_o person_n she_o fancy_v most_o she_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o

ought_v not_o to_o show_v too_o much_o kindness_n to_o the_o one_o nor_o declare_v too_o fierce_a a_o hatred_n against_o the_o other_o but_o to_o manage_v with_o discretion_n and_o moderation_n her_o

never_o to_o admit_v any_o person_n especial_o a_o lover_n any_o private_a freedom_n which_o she_o can_v honourable_o own_v and_o public_o justify_v far_o a_o virtuous_a woman_n ought_v still_o to_o carry_v in_o her_o mind_n that_o she_o be_v bind_v to_o satisfy_v all_o person_n as_o to_o her_o virtue_n as_o well_o as_o herself_o other_o tongue_n as_o well_o as_o her_o own_o heart_n nor_o ought_v a_o virtuous_a maid_n or_o wife_n to_o depend_v much_o upon_o her_o lover_n vow_n or_o oath_n of_o a_o true_a and_o constant_a love_n and_o a_o perfect_a unalterable_a friendship_n since_o most_o of_o their_o vow_n and_o love_n oath_n be_v build_v upon_o fade_a beauty_n which_o be_v but_o a_o sandy_a foundation_n their_o friendship_n common_o moulder_n away_o with_o the_o beauty_n that_o create_v it_o i_o shall_v therefore_o advise_v all_o handsome_a virtuous_a woman_n not_o to_o depend_v much_o on_o their_o lover_n fair_a word_n but_o on_o their_o own_o good_a action_n strict_a prudent_a

expose_v her_o reputation_n to_o her_o lover_n humour_n since_o by_o so_o do_v she_o be_v not_o long_o his_o queen_n and_o mistress_n but_o his_o subject_a and_o servant_n by_o trust_v her_o humour_n into_o his_o power_n and_o what_o be_v worse_o to_o his_o mercy_n and_o solomon_n the_o wise_a of_o man_n give_v man_n this_o good_a advice_n advoid_v suretyship_n and_o you_o shall_v be_v sure_a and_o the_o like_a caution_n and_o prudence_n also_o lead_v woman_n not_o to_o be_v bind_v for_o nor_o to_o trust_v in_o any_o beauty-lover_n oath_n for_o this_o good_a reason_n that_o if_o you_o

for_o they_o will_v tell_v you_o that_o the_o pure_a state_n of_o innocency_n be_v never_o but_o in_o one_o woman_n which_o be_v the_o first_o of_o her_o sex_n and_o will_v be_v the_o last_o of_o

only_o raise_v there_o by_o the_o lofty_a muse_n of_o their_o own_o vain_a imagination_n and_o therefore_o such_o proud_a puff_v up_o beauty_n be_v real_o but_o like_o your_o schoolboy_n paper-kyte_n which_o be_v only_o mount_v into_o the_o sky_n by_o the_o wind_n and_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n again_o assoon_o as_o it_o cease_v to_o blow_v they_o up_o real_o if_o i_o dare_v venture_v to_o give_v my_o free_a vote_n as_o to_o my_o opinion_n of_o beauty_n i_o shall_v tell_v the_o lady_n that_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o measure_n cast_v and_o a_o disputable_a question_n which_o be_v most_o unsolid_a and_o unlasting_a either_o the_o matter_n of_o this_o fine_a composition_n call_v beauty_n which_o be_v in_o the_o handsome_a woman_n but_o like_o the_o fade_a colour_n of_o a_o tulip_n only_o pleasant_a to_o the_o eye_n for_o a_o little_a time_n and_o there_o be_v all_o or_o the_o maker_n of_o it_o which_o be_v no_o other_o than_o the_o various_a opinion_n of_o every_o gazer_n inclination_n beauty_n have_v almost_o as_o many_o father_n as_o there_o be_v man_n judge_n of_o it_o sure_o these_o vain_a proud_a creature_n have_v read_v the_o story_n of_o theodosius_n a_o spanish_a prince_n who_o be_v raise_v to_o be_v emperor_n for_o his_o good_a face_n and_o therefore_o think_v they_o may_v well_o hope_v to_o be_v raise_v not_o only_o to_o a_o empire_n over_o man_n for_o their_o great_a beauty_n but_o that_o they_o do_v well_o deserve_v a_o great_a transcendency_n over_o the_o ordinary_a rate_n of_o womenkind_n but_o indeed_o such_o high_a beauty_n be_v at_o very_o best_o but_o like_o meteor_n which_o be_v exhale_v but_o a_o little_a above_o the_o earth_n and_o be_v yet_o a_o great_a deal_n below_o the_o heaven_n but_o suppose_v i_o shall_v be_v so_o high_o complimental_a as_o to_o allow_v these_o great_a beauty_n the_o full_a swing_n and_o extravagant_a range_n of_o their_o own_o vain_a proud_a and_o lofty_a fancy_n that_o they_o be_v as_o far_o above_o the_o ordinary_a sort_n of_o woman_n as_o the_o sky_n be_v above_o the_o earth_n and_o that_o their_o motion_n be_v very_o generous_a and_o sublime_a imitate_v the_o sea_n which_o impatient_a to_o be_v confine_v by_o the_o bound_n which_o god_n have_v give_v be_v still_o swell_a and_o strive_v to_o mount_v and_o raise_v itself_o above_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o earth_n yet_o i_o will_v glad_o learn_v because_o i_o can_v no_o way_n fancy_v how_o they_o will_v pretend_v to_o be_v beget_v there_o except_o it_o be_v by_o the_o man_n in_o the_o moon_n and_o indeed_o that_o may_v possible_o be_v some_o reason_n why_o our_o great_a beauty_n be_v general_o so_o fickle_a and_o inconstant_a in_o their_o love_n as_o receive_v their_o great_a mutability_n from_o the_o influence_n of_o the_o moon_n as_o their_o immediate_a parent_n 5._o therefore_o my_o next_o advice_n to_o the_o vain_a lady_n be_v still_o to_o remember_v that_o though_o your_o beauty_n may_v be_v extraordinary_a yet_o your_o life_n can_v never_o be_v immortal_a on_o earth_n and_o that_o your_o great_a beauty_n and_o proud_a
