t the crown itself, and the king and queen's actions;
witch may be considered as the crown jewels. Here's princes, and
grand-dukes and airsparent, and heaven knows what; all with blood-royal
in their veins, and their names mentioned in the very fust page of the
peeridge. In this book you become so intmate with the Prince of Wales,
that you may follow him, if you please, to his marridge-bed: or, if

Now, though most of the remarkable extrax from this book have been given

common criminal is publicly condemned or acquitted. Her royal highness
