This book desperately needs an editor. The whole first chapter says his theme is human nature and compares his writing to a MasterChef that starts with bland food and escalates to more rich food overtime.

Fielding promises his book will be decent and admirable.
He says it is easier to make good men wise than to make bad men good, since only indiscretion can injure innocence. He wants to laugh us out of vice.
That’s his preface and the 1st hundredth of the novel.
