The same year as the first edition which is recorded at BL, John Rylands; Huntington, California, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Toronto, and Yale. A 'solicitor's daughter Jenny Gripe. is represented as feigning sickness to avoid the rather more practical duty of work, allowing her to indulge in her newfound and illicit pleasure in novel-reading. Described as being of 'the middle Station', Jenny is sent to London by a father ambitious of social elevation and hopeful that Jenny might 'have some Education bestow'd upon her'. The results are not to his liking however and it is reported that 'Jenny, being return'd home could not contain the Pleasure she had received from having seen the Beaux Monde'. One such pleasure is that of reading works of fiction, which she devoured 'from Night till Morning, with such an Extravagance, that she scarcely ever eat or drank; and when they wanted her to work, as usual, she feign'd Sickness, pretending she had not slept all Night, and her Eyes were weak, proceeding from this Rage of Reading'. ref: Monaghan, Jessica. Feigned Illness and Bodily Legibility in Eighteenth-Century British Culture. 2015. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 99696
