CONTENTS OF VOLUME VI


LETTER I. II. Lovelace to Belford.--
His conditional promise to Tomlinson in the lady's favour. His pleas
and arguments on their present situation, and on his darling and
hitherto-baffled views. His whimsical contest with his conscience. His
latest adieu to it. His strange levity, which he calls gravity, on the
death of Belford's uncle.

LETTER III. IV. From the same.--
She favours him with a meeting in the garden. Her composure. Her
conversation great and noble. But will not determine any thing in his
favour. It is however evident, he says, that she has still some
tenderness for him. His reasons. An affecting scene between them. Her
ingenuousness and openness of heart. She resolves to go to church; but
will not suffer him to accompany her thither. His whimsical debate with
the God of Love, whom he introduced as pleading for the lady.
