As she was endowed with great sensibility and delicacy, she suffered at this contempt: she was at first much affected with his behaviour, and afterwards enraged at it; and, when he began to give her proofs of his affection, she had the pleasure of convincing him of her indifference.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
