A court lady's curiosity; or, the virgin undress'd. Curiously surveying herself in her glass, with one leg upon her toilet. A Chinese novel: by a facetious Florentine, who accompanied the Tuscan Missionaries into China, and lived five Years at Pekin, the Capital of the Kingdom. Formerly translated from the Italian; and dedicated to the beau monde; by a young English nobleman. And now adapted to the Taste of the Town, by an Officer of Distinction in the Army. With a curious frontispiece, representing the Posture this Beautiful Chinese Lady was surprized in by Her Lover; and the Artifice he made Use of to accomplish his Design upon her.
