A Girl about ten years old, had got a trick of confidently staring in mens faces when they were talking; for which her mother reproved her, saying Daughter, our Sex enjoins us Modesty, and you ought to be bashful, and look downward when you are in mens company, and not to stand gazing and gaping as if you were looking babies in their eyes: to which the pert girl replied, This lecture forsooth, should have been read in my former ignorant Ages, but every age grows wiser and wiser; that maids of every age know better: Men indeed, may look down on the primitive dust, from whence they were taken, but Man being our original, I will stare in their faces, say what you can to the contrary.
