5. The Lover's Watch; or the Art of making love. It is taken from M.
Bonnecourte's le Montre, or the Watch. It is not properly a novel. A
lady, under the name of Iris, being absent from her lover Damon, is
supposed to send him a Watch, on the dial plate of which the whole
business of a lover, during the twenty-four hours, is marked out, and
pointed to by the dart of a Cupid in the middle.--

"Thus eight o'clock is marked agreeable to reverie; nine o'Clock, design
to please no body; ten o'clock, reading of letters, &c."

To which is added, as from Damon to Iris, a description of the case of
the watch.

6. The Lady's Looking-Glass, to dress themselves by. Damon is supposed
to send Iris a looking-glass, which represents to her all her charms,
viz. her shape, complexion, hair, &c. This likewise, which is not
properly a novel, is taken from the French.

7. The Lucky Mistake, a new novel.

8. The Court of the King of Bantam.

9. The Adventures of the Black Lady. The reader will distinguish the
originals from translations, by consulting the 2d and 3d tomes of
Recueil des pieces gallantet, en prose et en verse. Paris 1684.

We have observed, that in the English translation of Ovid's Epistles,
the paraphrase of Oenone's Epistle to Paris is her's. In the preface to
that work Mr. Dryden pays her this handsome compliment.
