and_o apron_n too_o but_o be_v not_o worth_a a_o fig_n to_o what_o it_o be_v now_o threadneedle-street_n likewise_o to_o all_o be_v know_v to_o be_v the_o ancient_a street_n in_o london-town_n the_o cross-legged_a sign_n be_v there_o the_o first_o set_v up_o and_o likewise_o there_o be_v first_o a_o tailor_n shop_n their_o arm_n be_v ancient_a too_o and_o well_o they_o fit_v which_o be_v three_o

the_o tailor_n think_v he_o be_v the_o best_a and_o chief_a of_o all_o that_o sharp_a backbiting_a crew_n which_o he_o take_v up_o and_o cut_v he_o just_a in_o two_o with_o his_o new_a shears_o and_o give_v his_o wife_n one_o half_a to_o eat_v and_o the_o other_a half_n do_v eat_v himself_o and_o from_o that_o time_n do_v very_o think_v that_o he_o be_v a_o gentleman_n and_o of_o antiquity_n because_o that_o louse_n he_o know_v have_v suck_v before_o of_o the_o ancient_a gentleman_n blood_n such_o store_n and_o his_o wife_n likewise_o do_v very_o think_v she_o be_v a_o gentlewoman_n too_o

and_o when_o other_o will_v leave_v half_a in_o the_o cup_n yet_o he_o will_v always_o wind_v his_o bottom_n up_o nay_o those_o which_o drink_v not_o he_o will_v say_v be_v dull_a and_o tell_v they_o still_o it_o be_v but_o a_o thimbleful_a he_o can_v not_o drink_v to_o mend_v his_o blood_n i_o be_o sure_a you_o know_v his_o blood_n be_v good_a enough_o before_o when_o other_o gentleman_n will_v say_v they_o be_v gentleman_n of_o such_o and_o such_o a_o shire_n yet_o he_o excel_v they_o all_o in_o spite_n of_o their_o ear_n they_o come_v from_o one_o his_o from_o a_o pair_n of_o shear_n and_o whereas_o other_o man_n do_v call_v the_o court_n behind_o their_o house_n a_o backside_n he_o in_o sport_n command_v they_o all_o to_o call_v it_o a_o yard_n for_o he_o know_v his_o wife_n will_v be_v well-pleased_a with_o that_o name_n too_o and_o please_v she_o he_o must_v in_o all_o his_o discourse_n because_o the_o grey_a mare_n be_v know_v the_o better_a horse_n and_o likewise_o know_v it_o do_v belong_v to_o his_o trade_n without_o a_o yard_n no_o measure_n can_v be_v make_v some_o say_v by_o surgery_n too_o he_o be_v grow_v rich_a for_o never_o man_n do_v better_o cure_v a_o

still_o so_o many_o suit_n in_o hand_n one_o ask_v he_o why_o he_o marry_v a_o northern_a woman_n he_o tell_v he_o in_o their_o trade_n it_o be_v very_o common_a because_o their_o needle_n still_o
