"The Comical Pilgrim; or, Travels of a Cynick Philosopher..." by an anonymous author, is a funny story from the 1700s that takes you on a trip with a grumpy thinker who wants to find out what’s wrong with people. The main guy isn't on a holy trip but is instead looking for bad behavior in places like England and Holland. Right away, he tells us he's there to judge people, especially the messed-up stuff he sees in England. He shares funny stories about his time in London, like seeing people drunk and plays that are not good for kids. He reflects on what he sees, making jokes and pointing out the silly mistakes people make. This sets us up for a story that's both fun and critical of how people live their lives.
The Comical Pilgrim; or, Travels of a Cynick Philosopher... Thro' the most Wicked Parts of the World, Namely, England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and Holland
