Unleashing the rat bashers by an art deco lamp

Fanny Hill (Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure)

Letter The First

I was now settled in lodgings of my own, abandon'd to my own conduct, and turned loose upon the town, to sink or swim, as I could manage with the current of it; and what were the consequences, together with the number of adventures which befell me in the exercise of my new profession, will compose the matter of another letter: for surely it is high time to put a period to this.

I am,

MADAM

Yours, etc., etc., etc.
