him, that even his Friend had much ado to perswade himself ’twas the same Man.  In this Garb, about six a Clock, he calls for a Glass of Purl at an Ale-House, within sight of his own Door, waiting till his Wife came out; who as soon as he had seen past by, he pays for his Glass of Purl, and follows her:  And she going towards St. Antholin’s Church, he began to think she had been abus’d, and he impos’d upon; but he was quickly convinc’d to the contrary, when he saw her go by the Church, and cross over the way to the Back-side of St. Thomas Apostles, and there go into a House:  After she was gone in, he staid about half a quater of an hour, and then according to the Directions of his Letter, he went in himself, and ask’d far the Gentlewoman of the House; at which the Old Bawd appearing, Are you the Gentlewoman of the House, Madam, said he?  Yes, Sir, says she, for want of a better I am:  Pray what wou’d you have with me?  Why, Madam, says he, I want a certain sort of a Fleshly Convenience, and I am inform’d you can help me to one.  At which the Bawd look’d a little strangely upon him; I help you to one, Sir, said she?  I hope, you don’t take me for a Bawd; if you do, I assure you, you are come to the wrong House; And I’d have ye to know, Sir, I’m another sort of Person.  Madam, replyed he, if I have offended you, I beg your Pardon; but I was directed hither by Tom Stanhop, to take a Survey of the Ladies in the Dining-Room.  As soon as the Bawd heard him say so, she began to look more pleasingly upon him, and desir’d him to walk up Stairs, and according to his desire had him into the Dining-Room, where he soon espyed his Wives Picture, drawn to the Life.  And making Choice of that, Pray, Madam, says he, what must I give you for the Enjoyment of this Lady? for she pleases my Eye better than any of the rest?  Why truly, Sir, (says she) I have a Guinea for any of ’em; but there’s another Gentleman has promis’d to Visit that Lady this Morning, and I wonder he isn’t come yet; but because I expect him every Minute, I cann’t recommend any one to her this Morning.  Is he with her now, says he?  No, Sir, says she, but I don’t know how soon he may be:  Nay, Madam, said he, you ought to observe the same Rule here, as in a Barber’s-Shop, First come, first serv’d:  Come here’s a Guinea and a half for you:  This wrought so effectually upon the Bawd, that he was immediately conducted to the Chamber where his Wife was.  And Counterfeiting his Voice as much as he cou’d, Madam, says he, Invited by your Shadow, which I saw below, I am now come to be made happy with the Enjoyment of the Substance.  To which she answer’d (not knowing ’twas her Husband,) Sir, you are very welcome to all the Pleasure I can give you:—­What must the Purchase be of so much happiness, reply’d he to her?  To which, she straight return’d, I am no Mercenary Person, Sir; nor do I make a Bargain with any one before-hand; but take what Gentlemen are freely pleas’d to give me; to whose Generosity I always leave it:
