Among old New England inns; being an account of little journeys to various quaint inns and hostelries of colonial New England . l this sweetness isjoined with such attractive vertue as drawsall to a certain distance and there detainsthem with reverence and admiration, noneever daring to approach her nigher or hav-ing power to go further off. Shes so oblig-ing courteous and civil as if those qualitieswere only born with her, and rested in herbosom as their centre. Her speech and herBehavior is so gentle sweet and affable, thatwhatsoever men may talk of magik thereinnone charms but she. So good a wife sheis she frames her nature to her husbands:the hyacinth follows not the sun more will-ingly than she her husbands pleasure. Herhousehold is her charge. Her care to thatmakes her but seldom a non-resident. Herpride is to be neat and cleanly, and her thirstnot to be Prodigal. And to conclude is bothwise and religious which makes her all Ihave said before. In the next place I suppose yourself willthink it reasonable that unto Mrs. StewardsI should add her husbands Character:whose worth and goodness do well merit. 284. WHIPPLE HOUSE, IPSWICH
