Pamela: or, virtue rewarded. In a series of familiar letters from a beautiful young damsel, to her parents. Now first published in order to cultivate the principles of virtue and religion in the minds of the youth of both sexes. A narrative which has its foundation in truth and nature; and at the same time that it agreeably entertains, by a variety of curious and affecting incidents, is intirely [sic] divested of all those images, which, in too many pieces calculated for amusement only, tend to inflame the minds they should instruct. In two volumes..
