THE
HISTORY
OF THE
CONDITION OF WOMEN,
IN VARIOUS AGES AND NATIONS.
BY
MRS. D. L. CHILD,
AUTHOR OF “MOTHER’S BOOK,” “FRUGAL HOUSEWIFE,” ETC.
I am a slave, a favored slave
At best, to share his splendor, and seem very blest;
When weary of these fleeting charms and me,
There yawns the sack, and yonder rolls the sea.
What! am I then a toy for dotard’s play,
To wear but till the gilding frets away?—Byron’s Corsair.
