XII.

Where you propose to stay any time, be very cautious with whom you make

an acquaintance, as there are always a number of officious forward

Frenchmen, and English adventurers, ready to offer you their services,

from whom you will find it very difficult to disengage yourself, after

you have found more agreeable company.--Frenchmen of real fashion, are

very circumspect, and will not _fall in love with you_ at first sight;

but a designing knave will exercise every species of flattery, in order

to fix himself upon you for his dinner, or what else he can get, and

will be with you before you are up, and after you are in bed.
