An Address to the Rising Generation. . .
For your direction: in leisure hours, instead of going to
the theatres, gaming-houses, brothels, and the like, which
can never be of any service to you, but greatly to the
contrary, as dear-bought experience has too late convinced
many a one; pursue useful and ornamental knowledge, study
history, natural philosophy, music, drawing, painting, &c.
and seek the improving conversation of the sensible and
virtuous fair, together with that of a few select friends of
your own sex, esteemed for their piety and discretion. . .
[signed] Dr. Watts.
