ABSTRACT
The forms attending marriages of persons in a certain rank are so much alike, that we thought it unnecessary to interrupt our narrative with a detailed account of the new furniture, new houses, new carriages, and new acquaintance, which each acquired by this union: nor would we ungenerously take advantage of the passive condition of our readers, to drag them through the tedious journal of each day’s occurrences; and pass off a vile twenty-times-told tale, of what the lover’s friends said of the lady, or the lady’s friends of the lover.
