A66705 Poor Robins hue and cry after Good House-Keeping, or, A dialogue betwixt Good House-Keeping, Christmas, and Pride shewing how Good House-Keeping is grown out of date both in city and country, and Christmas become only a meer name and not to be found by feasting in gentlemens houses but only by red-letters in almanacks : and how the money that should go to feast the poor at Christmas is spent upon the maintenance of Pride, with how many trades are maintained by Pride, and how many undone for want of Good House-Keeping. Poor Robin.; Winstanley, William, 1628?-1698. 1687 (1687) Wing W3074; ESTC R12812 5,342 10
