Note 210 — Chapter XIII · MEN'S DRESS.

Reading edition

If the Strong Cane support thy walking Hand, Chairmen no longer shall the Wall command; Ev'n sturdy Car-men shall thy Nod obey, And rattling Coaches stop to make thee Way: This shall direct thy Cautious Tread aright, Though not one glaring Lamp enliven Night. Let Beaus their Canes with Amber tipt produce, Be theirs for empty Show, but thine for use.[210]

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
