Madam,
I know of a little Lady, no bigger than your pretty Miss, who has behaved so that every Body is in love with her. She is extremely dutiful to her Parents and Governess, kind to her School-fellows, and obliging to every Body. Then she learns her Book to Admiration, works well with her Needle, and is so modest, so willing to do as she is bid, and so engaging in Company, that my Lady Mean-well has made her a Present of a fine Gold Watch, and declares that she shall ride in her own Coach: It is this Learning, Madam, and good Behaviour, that brings us the Esteem of the whole World.
I am, Madam, Yours, &c..
