Letter on English habits and debauchery in China and Europe
The correspondence lampoons English marriage laws and social morals, claims many men keep multiple wives, and mocks English norms as lax. It details a Dangler’s traits, critiques assembly culture, and ends with a plea to publish critiques of high society. It also includes ship arrivals, voyages, and a broad wartime letter from Copenhagen noting East Indies missions and religious conversions.
