Two sorts of persons are here spoken of that are ruining their own
estates, and will be beggars shortly, and therefore are not to be
trusted with any good security:--1. Those that will be bound for any
body that will ask them, that entangle themselves in rash suretiship to
oblige their idle companions; they will break at last, nay, they cannot
hold out long; these waste by wholesale. 2. Those that are in league
with abandoned women, that treat them, and court them, and keep company
with them. They will be beggars in a little time; never give them
credit without good pledge. Strange women have strange ways of
impoverishing men to enrich themselves.
