III

       Will not let the reader fall asleep

       CHAPTER IV

       Contains, among other particulars, certain bridal admonitions

       CHAPTER V

       Seems to demand, for more reasons than one, a greater share of attention than ordinary, in the perusal of it

       CHAPTER VI

       Contains a second matrimonial contest, of worse consequence than the former

       CHAPTER VII

       Gives an exact account of what happened in the family of Mr. Munden, after the lamentable and deplorable death of his lady's favourite squirrel; with several other particulars, much less significant, yet very necessary to be told

       CHAPTER VIII

       Presents the reader with some passages which could not conveniently be told before, and, without all doubt, have been for a long time impatiently expected

       CHAPTER IX

       Contains the catastrophe of Lady Mellasin's and her daughter Flora's adventures while on this side the globe

       CHAPTER X

       Returns to the affairs of Mrs. Munden

       CHAPTER XI

       Contains some few particulars which followed the reconciliation

       CHAPTER XII

       Is only the prelude to greater matters

       CHAPTER XIII

       Contains what every reader of an ordinary capacity may, by this time, easily guess at

       CHAPTER XIV

       Contains a brief recital of several very remarkable, and equally affecting, occurrences, of which the last-mentioned extraordinary adventure was productive, and which may justly enough be looked upon as yet more extraordinary than even the adventure itself

       CHAPTER XV

       Contains such things as will be pleasing to those whose candid dispositions interest them in favour of the heroine of this history

       CHAPTER XVI

       Presents the reader, among many other particulars, with a full, though as concise an account as can be given, of the real quality and condition of the lady that Mrs. Munden had seen, and been so much charmed with, at the mercer's

       CHAPTER XVII

       Is less entertaining than some of the former

       CHAPTER XVIII

       Contains a most shocking instance of infidelity and ingratitude

       CHAPTER XIX

       Relates such things as the reader will, doubtless, think of very great importance, yet will hereafter be found of much greater then he can at present imagine

       CHAPTER XX

       More of the same

       CHAPTER XXI

       Affords variety of amusement

       CHAPTER XXII

       Is less pleasing than the former

       CHAPTER XXIII

       Contains a very brief account of every material occurrence that happened in regard of our fair widow, during the space of a whole year, with some other particulars of less moment

       CHAPTER XXIV

       Is the last; and, if the author's word may be taken for it, the best
