Hannah More, "On the Danger of Sentimental or Romantic Connexions" (1778) (http://www.engl.virginia.edu/%7Eenec981/dictionary/18moreC1.html) In this essay, More is concerned to warn young ladies against the temptation to enter into "sentimental connexions," which are merely euphemistically presented liaisons. She describes in detail the strategies of young men who set out to ensnare "sentimental girls," and paints a vivid picture of the unhappy marriage that is sure to result from such a seduction.
