The history of Pamela [electronic resource] : Or, Virtue rewarded. In a series of familiar letters from a beautiful young Damsel to her parents. Published, in order to cultivate the principles of virtue and prudence in the minds of the youth of both sexes. A narrative which has it's foundation in truth; and at the same time that it agreeably entertains, by a variety of curious and affecting incidents, is entirely divested of those images which in many pieces calculated for amusement only, tend to inflame the minds they should instruct. To which are prefixed extracts from several curious letters, written to the editor on the subject. By Samuel Richardson, Esq. author of the histories of Sir Charles Grandison, Clarissa, &c. Originally published in four volumes; now comprized in one large volume octavo.
