Note 156 — III AMUSEMENTS AND IMPRESSIONS
Reading edition
Some French ladies, who were disagreeably crowded by public curiosity in Kensington Gardens, complained heavily of our want of politesse. They should remember, however, that they were not quite undressed in the fashion, and that the English ladies always walk out with something upon their heads, however they treat the rest of their persons.—Times, April 19, 1803.
