CLARISSA, &c. (continued 2)
Reading edition
May Clarissa's Memory be as triumphant as was her Death! May all the World, like Lovelace, bear Testimony to her Virtues, and acknowledge her Triumph!
I am with many Thanks, Sir, for your obliging Letter,
Your most obedient, &c.
Harriote Gibson.
These Letters were shewn me by Miss Gibson, and thus, Sir, have I collected together all I have heard on your History of Clarissa; and if every thing that Miss Gibson and Bellario has said, is fairly deducible from the Story, then I am certain, by the candid and good-natured Reader, this will be deemed a fair and impartial Examination, tho' I avow myself the sincere Admirer of Clarissa, and
Your very humble Servant,
FINIS.
