Her behaviour there was a Piece with the first Onset; _p._ 137. 'Every now and then she would be _staring in my Face_, in the Chariot, and _squeezing my Hand_, and saying, Why you are very pretty, my silent Dear! And once she offer'd to kiss me. But I said, I don't like this Sort of Carriage, Mrs. _Jewkes_; _it is not like two Persons of one Sex_. She fell a laughing very confidently, and said, That's prettily said, _I vow! Then thou hadst rather be kiss'd by the other Sex? "Isackins, I commend thee for that"!_' There are at present, I am sorry to say it, too many who assume the Characters of Women of Mrs. _Jewkes_'s Cast, I mean _Lovers of their own Sex_, _Pamela_ seems to be acquainted with this, and indeed shews so much Virtue, that she has no Objection to the Male Sex as too many of her own have. _Pamela_ begins now to shew her Skill in Intrigue. It is a trite Observation, that Confinement and Restraint will drive a Woman to the most desperate Applications for a Remedy. She is lock'd up, and no _Spanish Lady_ whatever could be closer confined by the most watchful _Duenna_; but Miss comforts herself that she shall be too hard for them all: _p._ 157. 'Well, thought I, I hope still, _Argus_, to be too hard for thee. Now _Argus_, the Poets say, had an Hundred Eyes, and was made to watch with them all, as she does.' The Parson here is brought upon the Tapis, and instead of the _harmless Dove_ hatching Piety and Affection, he enters into his Patron's Affairs with so much affected Business, as makes him rather a _Medlar_ than a _Friend_. A fine Complement to the Clergy by the Way! Mrs. _Jewkes_ takes all Opportunities of insinuating her Master's _good Qualities_, but especially his Manhood, and _Pamela_ seems as desirous of hearing of them: _p._ 163. 'Well, well, Lambkin, (which the Foolish often calls me) if I was in his Place, he should not have his Property in you long questionable. Why, what would you do, said I, if you were he?----_Not stand shill-I, shall-I, as he does; but put you and himself both out of your Pain._' After a long Series of Intrigue carried on between her and the Parson, to no Purpose, but to swell _the Grain of Mustard Seed_ to _Two Volumes_, a Swiss is introduced as an Assistant Guard, and Miss then begins to dream: _p._ 221. 'I dream'd they were both coming to my Bed-side, with the worst Designs; and I jump'd out of Bed in my Sleep, and frighted Mrs. _Jewkes_; 'till, waking with the Terror, I told her my Dream: And the wicked Creature only laughed, and said, _All I fear'd_ was but a _Dream_, as well as that; and when it was _over_, and I was well awake, I should laugh at it as such!' These Words tho' spoke by Mrs. _Jewkes_ in the Character of an abandon'd Profligate, yet can be of no Service to Youth, who may take the latter Part only, and be apt to conclude, that all _Virtue_ is but a _Dream_; and certainly they were much better omitted than put in.
