I have now entirely done with all which relates to the Danger Women and Children run through _officious_, shameful _Impatience_. I have only to recommend one serious Reflection to those Husbands who think their Happiness would be interrupted by detecting any Infidelity in their Wives. I beg they will consider _the Advantages_ they give Men-midwives, in allowing them so many _favourable_ Opportunities of _extolling the personal_ Charms of the Ladies, _whose Beauties_ lie open to their _most curious_ Researches. No Men can possibly have _such critical_ Opportunities for engratiating themselves with the Fair. _Flattery, CRITICALLY applied_ to Women, has strange Effects. They can _accompany_ their Flattery with _irresistible_ Persuasives. The sacred Names of Religion and Honour _may_ be made _Subservient_ to their Purposes. The more they are pretended to be prized in their Estimation, the more _they may be urged in proof_ of the _bewitching_ Allurements, and _forcible_ Power of those hidden Beauties, which have obliterated every Remonstrance of Virtue, and stifled every Check of Conscience. The poor Woman’s _Pity_ is excited, when she views the strongest Principles of her “dear Man” overcome by _her_ Charms—she can only blame _herself_ for possessing _such provoking Temptations_—she is blinded by the Assistance of Nature—_her own Vanity_ turns Advocate for the Doctor, and acquits him of Villainy _during the Empire of Passion_; though the _return_ of Reason, _when too late_! discovers the Artifices which have accomplish’d her Ruin! THE AUTHOR. I hope Doctor Hunter will pardon _the latter_ part of the Reference, at the bottom of my second Letter. I fear I misrepresented him in attributing Infirmities to his share which I am inform’d he never yet has experienced. His _Abilities_ are great—and if a Man _must_ be employ’d, I think he may be called in with as much safety as any Man of his Profession. ☞ _As this Pamphlet recommends the employing of Women, the Publishers have taken some Pains to procure a List of those who are eminent in their Profession—and on the best information recommend the following Midwives to those Ladies who have too much Modesty to employ Men—and who are convinced by the preceding Pages that the Men are not so safe as Women._ Mrs. Nihell _Hay Market_ Mrs. Brooke } _Cross Key Court, Little Britain_ Mrs. Stephens } Mrs. Lee } Mrs. Harris _Mould Makers Row, St. Martin’s Le Grand_ Mrs. Reynard } _Bartholomew Close_ Mrs. Forrest } Mrs. Smith } _Cow Lane, Snow-Hill_ Mrs. Page } Mrs. Phillips _Garlick Hill_ Mrs. Andrews _Bush Lane, Cannon Street_ Mrs. Longbottom _Near Guy’s Hospital_ Mrs. Richardson _Westminster_ Mrs. Souden _Ratcliff Row, Old Street_
