Miss Br-ml-y

Though she cannot boast of her personal, yet her mental charms operate as potently; for she is said, from having had a genteel education, to be very agreeable in company, to which that agreeableness alone can be her recommendation, as she has not beauty to be her Sir Clement Cotterell. She is unlike the generality of her sisterhood with respect to drinking, nor has she by her promiscuous intimacy with society, acquired the detestable habit of swearing, too frequent in women who have “quit the thorny ways of virtue to stray in the smoother paths of pleasure.”

She is very good-natured, and is said to be thoroughly experienced in the whole art and mystery of Venus's tactics, and can as soon reduce a perpendicular to less than the curve of a parabola. She knows what curve the balls describe in the attack of the half-moon, from the solient angle of the bastion; and is perfect mistress of the whole science of fortifying an attack behind the curtain. In plain English, she is a delightful bed-fellow, of about eighteen years of age only, and well worth a couple of guineas.
