At some points, she seems to be bad, but then good. An example would be that self-love is foolish and we need it. I don't see why self-love would be foolish not if you over balance it.
I think the narrator is clever. Folly is an excellent orator. She is the daughter of Plutus (god of riches) and Neotes (youth) and was nursed by Methe (tipsy) and Apaedia (ninny). She speaks in the manner of a traditional Renaissance humanist, peppering her words with proverbs and classical allusions. Her tone is lighthearted for most of the treatise, but grows stricter when she begins considering the foibles of religious men.
