Cupid and Hymen; a voyage to the isles of love and matrimony. Containing a most diverting account of the inhabitants of those two vast and polulous countries, their laws, customs, and government. Interspers'd with many useful directions and cautions how to avoid the dangerous precipices and quicksands that these islands abound with, and wherein so many thousands, who have undertaken the voyage, have miserably perished. By the facetious Harry Carey, and T.B. To which are added, a map of the island of marriage; the batchelor's estimate of the expences attending a married life. The married man's answer to it; none but fools marry, a vindication of the estimate. By Simon Single, Esq;
