Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents the story of Chlorinda, daughter of the roistering choleric Sir Jeoffry Wildairs. Endowed with the passionate temper and spirited and dominant disposition of her father, the beautiful and witty girl is obeyed and humored by all the servants who at once fear and love her. It is this complete achievement of all her caprices and desires, with a reckless disregard of consequences which carry her into her tempestuous and misguided romance with the popular Sir John Oxen. Awakening to a situation which might have completely disarmed another woman, only serves to transform Chlorinda into "A Lady of Quality" whose beauty, splendor and adventures in society makes her a person of note.
