Yet modrfty, once so honored, must yield, and retire unheeded by the gay votaries of fafhion. And is then modesty quire dis regarded ?—quire forgotten by the fair ? No—there are yet those who scorn tafhion’s despo tic sway, when it exceeds the bounds of modesty, who can re lilt its Inwlefs force, nor so! ow the giddy traflof fafbion funner than virtue and decorum war rants.
