Town and Country life

The most important thing that a person, while travelling from a town to the country marks is the diffrence in manners between the people. No doubt several civilities and ceremonies were first cultivated by the citizens and the courtiers who distinguished themselves in that respect from the unpolished village dwellers. Gradually these formalities multiplied and some of them had to be shunned off by citizens to free themselves from troubled ones. At present a certain candour and freedom from formalities constitute marks of refinement in the city. In the country however the modes of last age, extra courteouness predominate.
