Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Clarissa; Or the History of a Young Lady, Vol. 4 of 8: Comprehending the Most Important Concerns of Private Life; And Particularly Shewing the Distresses That May Attend the Misconduct Both of Parents and Children, in Relation to Marriage Mercury, as the fabulist tells us, having the curiosity to know the estimation he stood in among mortals, descended in disguise, and in a statuary´s shop cheapened a Jupiter, then a Juno, then one then another, of the Dü majores; and at last asked, what price that same statue of Mercury bore? O sir, says the artist, buy one of the others, and I´ll throw you in that for nothing. How sheepish must the god of thieves look upon this rebuff to his vanity! So thou! a thousand pounds wouldst thou give for the good opinion of this single lady - to be only thought tolerable, and not quite unworthy of her conversation, would make thee happy. And at parting last night, or rather this morning, thou madest me promise a few lines to Edgware, to let thee know what she thinks of thee, and of thy brethren. Thu thousand pounds, Jack, is all thy own: for most heartily does she dislike ye all - thee as much as any of the rest.
