Synopsis

Shall I soon be courted? Am I still thought a child? Shall I cease to be a virgin before I marry? Am I menaced by trouble or grief? Which self-respecting young lady hasn't at one time or another fretted over these most perplexing of questions? One has only to put to The Ladies' Oracle these (and a multitude of other) quandaries, and the book will lay forth its wisdom. With his collected knowledge of advanced mathematics and the feminine kind, Cornelius Agrippa has endeavoured to create a veritable bible for every aspiring lady. This charming compendium of solutions is an absolute necessity for anyone seeking guidance in an increasingly confusing world.
