13^ A Defeription of Between the fifth and eighth Years of our Age our Mothers teach us the Principles of Religion, and inculcate our Duty to our Parents and Neighbours, and inftruft us in the Manners and Cufioms of our Country, and the like, according to every one's Condition; At eight Years of Age we are fcnt to the Schools, where the Prielts (tor fuch generally are our School-Matters) examine us what we have learn'd at home, and they fupply our Deficiencies, and perfeft our Education. You rnuft not fappofe that Children of mean Parents can have all thefe advantages, for the Priefts will be extravagantly paid for inftruQing us, and fo indeed they are for all they do. This is the way of Educating our Boys. But the Girls have no other Tutors but their Mothers, who teach them to read, write, all manner of curious Works, modeft Behaviour, and all moral Virtues •, and laftly, how they fhall behave themfelves in a married ftate ^ their Fathers will fomecimes examine what progrefs they have made. The Daughters being thus bred, are ftri£t Followers of Virtue and their Mother's Exhortations, infomuch that they will rather kill themfelves than condefcend to any afl of Uncleanefs. I fhall bring an Example which happened about eight Years paft, and of which I was a very near witnefs. Our Ango?7^ or King being dead, the Emperor appointed another ^ upon his arrival in our Ifland he vifiied (according to cuftom ) all the remarkable places of it ^ amongft the reft he went to the Great Feorko^ where he was nobly enter* tain'd by the Governour, one of whofe Wives was juftly reputed one of the moft modeft^ ingenious, and charming Beauties of our Age 5 the nev^
the IJle ¥ovmo(z. 137 new King ( who was a brisk fanguine Man, a^ bout 35 Years of Age ) was at firll fight greatly enamour'd with her, and comnnanded the Gover* nour to fend her to the Royal Palace in Xternetfa ^ the Governour might have refus'd, for the King has no power over another Man's Wife, but yet he chofe rather to ftain his Honour, than iofe the favour of the new King ^ and accordingly, the King was no fooner returned from his progrefs, but the Governour fent the Lady with a very fplendid Retinue •, the King received her with abundance of joy and refpeft, and led her into a ftately Room, (he fhew'd a modeft chearfulnefs, tho' forrow fat heavy upon her Heart ^ the endeavours (he usM to conceal her Grief, added, if poflible, to her Beauty, and this enflam'd the King the more, fo that he forgot his Reafon and his Dignity, and (hew'd her all the Follies of a molt extravagant Padion ^ the Lady took advantage of his weaknefs, and kneeling down, begg'd he would grant her own favour before he enjoy 'd her^ the King anfwered, he was willing topleaie her in every thing, but that he muft know what (he would ask before he could grant. " Then, reply 'd (he, " the favour I beg, is to be (hut up - in a private Chamber for three Days and " Nights, and during that time no one (hall fee " or (peak to me •, things neceffary for my Life " or Diverfion (hall be brought once a Day to •' my door, the Servant that brings thefe things *< (hall knock and give me notice, and then he " (hall retire whilft I take them in ^ this pun£lu^ ^' ally performed, I (hall obey your Commands. The King granted herRequeft, and fent her that very moment into a Chamber, and conltantly the greateft Rarities of his Table were carried to her, together with Letters fpU of amorous and tender exprefiions:
