This is a sermon delivered by Samuel Clarke at St. James's Westminster on April 18, 1725. The sermon marks the occasion of erecting a charity school specifically designed as a house of education for women servants. Clarke's address underscores the importance of educating young women, providing them with the skills and knowledge necessary for domestic service and, more broadly, for leading virtuous lives. The text offers insights into the social concerns of the early 18th century, highlighting the role of the Church in addressing poverty and promoting education. It reveals the prevailing attitudes toward women's roles and the perceived benefits of charitable institutions in shaping society.
