  1    1|        augustly supported, the more understanding women acquire, the more
  2  Int|           rational mothers; and the understanding of the sex has been so bubbled
  3    1| civilization a curse, and warps the understanding, till men of sensibility
  4    2|             to ferment, and set the understanding to work before the body
  5    2|             such an exercise of the understanding as is best calculated to
  6    2|         should rely entirely on his understanding; and the graceful ivy, clasping
  7    2|                This contempt of the understanding in early life has more baneful
  8    2|              the cultivation of the understanding is always subordinate to
  9    2|             And as for any depth of understanding, I will venture to affirm,
 10    2|         usurp the sceptre which the understanding should ever coolly wield,
 11    2|        scene, let her cultivate her understanding without stopping to consider
 12    2|             submit implicitly their understanding to the guidance of man.
 13    3|             natural exercise of the understanding, as little inventions to
 14    3|            the hour. But were their understanding once emancipated from the
 15    3|         enjoyment and narrowness of understanding can solve. Educated in slavish
 16    3|            a woman with a tolerable understanding, for I do not wish to leave
 17    3|  respectable, the exercise of their understanding is necessary, there is no
 18    4|           same sentiments.*(2) Thus understanding, strictly speaking, has
 19    4|             true cultivation of the understanding; and every thing conspires
 20    4|       render the cultivation of the understanding more difficult in the female
 21    4|           cultivation of the female understanding: - yet virtue can be built
 22    4|         woman; is the cause why the understanding is neglected, whilst accomplishments
 23    4|             for the exercise of the understanding, as life advances, is the
 24    4|          the employment of life, an understanding to improve. And when, to
 25    4|          the education of children, understanding, in an unsophisticated sense,
 26    4|    experience, if by neglecting the understanding they be as much, nay, more
 27    4|            a man from enlarging his understanding, and enervate all his powers
 28    4|             heart any more than the understanding, is jealous of the little
 29    4|           the heart, as well as the understanding, is opened by cultivation;
 30    4|    instruction as not to narrow the understanding, whilst the heart is warmed
 31    4|            A man of her own size of understanding would, probably, not agree
 32    4|             of precision unless the understanding has been strengthened by
 33    4|             at the expence of their understanding; for, unless there be a
 34    4|        unless there be a ballast of understanding, they will never become
 35    4|         notice a few.~ ~ The female understanding has often been spoken of
 36    4|             heart by exercising the understanding: for these paradisiacal
 37    4|             all spring from want of understanding. Whether this arise from
 38    5|           this matter in doubt. The understanding of women answers in this
 39    5|          they are hardly capable of understanding what is said to them, before
 40    5|             may call beautiful, the understanding is neglected, and girls
 41    5|      creation.~ ~ Not allowing them understanding, however, it was but consistent
 42    5|      nurtured at the expence of the understanding, such weak beings must be
 43    5|     innocent by the exercise of her understanding: excepting, indeed, during
 44    5|             interest, and all their understanding seems to lie in their fingers'
 45    5|         less true, that an improved understanding only can render society
 46    5|            companion; - what is her understanding sacrificed for? And why
 47    5|         instead of enlightening his understanding. Even his virtues also led
 48    5|             they imagine that their understanding is convinced when they only
 49    5|            wished to strengthen her understanding, by leading her to form
 50    5|       reason. It is respect for the understanding that keeps alive tenderness
 51    5|             taste, and enervate the understanding of many of my fellow-creatures,
 52    5|             wrong end. A cultivated understanding, and an affectionate heart,
 53    5|            the result; and, without understanding the behaviour here recommended,
 54    5|             parts, and a cultivated understanding.' If men of real merit,
 55    5|       anxious desire to improve the understanding. - 'Wisdom is the principal
 56    5|           with all thy gettings get understanding.' - 'How long, ye simple
 57    5|          that peace, 'which passeth understanding,' when she is merely made
 58    5|            pardon an affront to her understanding much sooner than one to
 59    5|           morality! But thus is the understanding of the whole sex affronted,
 60    5|          virtues or respect for her understanding.~ ~ Whilst women avow, and
 61    5|           not call hers a masculine understanding, because I admit not of
 62    5|     penetration than sagacity, more understanding than fancy, she writes with
 63    5|           he neither cultivated his understanding nor kept his heart pure.
 64    5|        questions it asked, when the understanding with feeble wing was fluttering
 65    5|      produce nothing great, and his understanding, prepared for this world,
 66    5|             heart and perplexes the understanding.~ ~ I may be told, that
 67    5|         have a high respect for the understanding of some relation or friend,
 68    5|        childhood and youth; and the understanding, as life advances, gives
 69    6|             arrange themselves. The understanding, it is true, may keep us
 70    6|             life. So ductile is the understanding, and yet so stubborn, that
 71    6|        other dry employments of the understanding, tend to deaden the feelings
 72    6|             heart by the way of the understanding, because they have few sentiments
 73    6|       should we be to cultivate the understanding, to save the poor wight
 74    7|          subjects that exercise the understanding, without heating the imagination,
 75    7|             allowed to acquire more understanding.~ ~ She who can discern
 76    7|           instruments to unfold the understanding, and form the moral character.~ ~ *
 77    7|          and modesty, by making the understanding damp the sensibility.~ ~
 78    7|           be strengthened and their understanding enlarged by active exertions,
 79   10|            strengthening the female understanding, if it were properly considered.~ ~
 80   10|             insist, that unless the understanding of woman be enlarged, and
 81   11|           the heart and enlarge the understanding of his child, has given
 82   11|           of cultivating the female understanding, it is but just to observe,
 83   12|             heart as it weakens the understanding.~ ~ I should, in fact, be
 84   12|             parade that insults the understanding without reaching the heart.~ ~
 85   12|         make a shew of, without the understanding's acquiring any distinct
 86   12|           be allowed to debauch the understanding before it gained strength,
 87   12|       schools, the body, heart, and understanding, are equally stunted, for
 88   12|           brain, and sharpening the understanding before it gains proportionable
 89   12|    fashionable life? But, till more understanding preponderates in society
 90   12|    foundation of all taste. For the understanding, in spite of sensual cavillers,
 91   12|             is ever the work of the understanding employed in observing natural
 92   12|            and till women have more understanding, it is vain to expect them
 93   12|            a bottom, for unless the understanding be cultivated, superficial
 94   12|            fine senses and enlarged understanding of the artist selected the
 95   12|             plump and fair; but her understanding had not been led from female
 96   12|             a mistress.~ ~ Besides, understanding is necessary to give variety
 97   12|            from the exercise of the understanding and fancy, the legitimate
 98   12|          woman of a more cultivated understanding endeavour to give a rational
 99   12|          them to acquire sufficient understanding to know how even to nurse
100   12|            there is no improving an understanding by halves, nor can any being
101   12|           the progress of the human understanding in the improvement of the
102   13|        duties. I do not mention the understanding, because never having been
103   13|          would have effaced, if the understanding had been allowed to take
104   13|      disquisitions addressed to the understanding intolerably tedious, and
105   13|            works which exercise the understanding and regulate the imagination. -
106   13|           heart would expand as the understanding gained strength, if women
107   13|          their mothers had had more understanding.~ ~ One striking instance
108   13|       cannot be said to improve the understanding, though it be erroneously
109   13|       properly fulfilled unless the understanding enlarges the heart; and
110   13|           of fancy when he despises understanding in woman - that the mind,
111   13|           Be just then, O ye men of understanding! and mark not more severely
112   13|          where nature has not given understanding!~ ~ THE END .~ ~
