Etiquette to a society is what apparel is to the individual. Without apparel men would go in shameful nudity which would surely lead to the corruption of moral; and etiquette society would be in a pitiable state and the necessary intercourse between its members would be interfered with by needless offences and troubles. If society were a train, the etiquette would be the rails along which only the train could rumble forth; if society were a state coach, the etiquette would be the wheels and axis on which only the coach could roll forwarD、The lack of proprieties would make the most intimate friends turn m be the most decided enemies and the friendly or allied countries declare war against each other. We can find many examples in the history of mankinD、Therefore I advise you to stand on ceremony before anyone else and to take pains not to do anything against etiquette lest you give offences or make enemies.
