None given in general
in books, but the simple
approbation
or disapprobation
of the author

is given
in the form of a
precept

Men are to believe
him to be a wiser
man than ordinary
because he likes you
so — His disapprobation
is to be regarded
as an earnest of
the disapprobation
& displeasure of
the world at large.

woman
