perpetrated these oddities is not spoken of as

In the Ukraine (Russia) the women court
more generally than the men. When a
young woman falls in love with man she is
not in the least ashamed to go to his fathers S
house and reveal her passion in the most ten
der and pathetic manner, and to promise the
most submissive obedience if he will accept
her as his wife. Should the insensible man
pretend any excuse, she tells him she is re-
solved never 20 so out of the house till he
gives his consent, and accordingly, taking up
her lodgings, remains there. If he still OBJ
stinately refuses her, the case becomes ex'
ceedingly distressing. The church is COM
monty on her side, and to turn her out would
provoke her kindred to revenge her honor, so
that he has 10 method left but to betake
himself to fight till he is otherwise disposed
