put_v up_o a_o wrong_n then_o fee_v a_o lawyer_n but_o i_o do_v not_o think_v there_o be_v any_o such_o wisdom_n in_o this_o age_n when_o there_o be_v so_o many_o wrangle_a spirit_n that_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o commence_v suit_n but_o for_o a_o neighbour_n goose_n that_o shall_v but_o happen_v to_o look_v over_o a_o hedge_n now_o what_o conceit_n i_o have_v in_o the_o matter_n i_o will_v partly_o make_v manifest_a by_o this_o ensue_a circumstance_n as_o the_o worthy_a gentleman_n that_o have_v be_v lord_n major_n of_o the_o honourable_a city_n of_o london_n have_v be_v general_o renown_v for_o their_o wisdom_n in_o government_n so_o they_o have_v be_v no_o less_o fame_v for_o their_o hospitality_n and_o good_a housekeep_n during_o the_o time_n of_o their_o mairolties_n among_o the_o rest_n there_o be_v one_o who_o long_o since_o be_v ready_a to_o set_v himself_o down_o to_o his_o dinner_n with_o his_o company_n that_o be_v about_o he_o there_o throng_v in_o on_o the_o sudden_a a_o great_a company_n of_o stranger_n in_o that_o unreverent_a manner_n as_o have_v not_o former_o be_v accustom_v whereupon_o one_o of_o the_o officer_n come_v to_o the_o l._n maior_n say_v unto_o he_o if_o it_o please_v your_o lordship_n here_o be_v too_o few_o stool_n thou_o lie_v knave_n answer_v the_o mayor_n there_o be_v too_o many_o guest_n now_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o if_o lawyer_n indeed_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o complain_v of_o their_o little_a get_n it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o there_o be_v too_o few_o suit_n but_o because_o there_o be_v too_o many_o lawyer_n especial_o of_o these_o aturny_n solicitor_n and_o such_o other_o petty_a fogger_n whereof_o there_o be_v such_o abundance_n that_o the_o one_o of_o they_o can_v very_o hardly_o thrive_v by_o the_o other_o and_o this_o multitude_n of_o they_o do_v trouble_v all_o the_o part_n of_o england_n the_o profession_n of_o the_o law_n i_o do_v acknowledge_v to_o be_v honourable_a and_o i_o think_v the_o study_n of_o it_o shall_v especial_o belong_v to_o the_o better_a sort_n of_o gentleman_n but_o our_o inn_n of_o court_n now_o for_o the_o great_a part_n be_v stuff_v with_o the_o offspring_n of_o farmer_n and_o with_o all_o other_o sort_n of_o tradesman_n and_o these_o when_o they_o have_v get_v some_o few_o scrape_n of_o the_o law_n they_o do_v sow_v the_o seed_n of_o suit_n they_o do_v set_v man_n at_o variance_n &_o do_v seek_v for_o nothing_o more_o than_o to_o check_v the_o course_n of_o justice_n by_o their_o delatory_a plea_n for_o the_o better_a sort_n of_o the_o learned_a lawyer_n i_o do_v honour_n they_o they_o say_v it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o a_o licentious_a common_a wealth_n where_o physician_n and_o lawyer_n have_v too_o great_a come_n in_o but_o it_o be_v the_o surfeit_n of_o peace_n that_o bring_v in_o the_o physician_n gain_n yet_o in_o he_o there_o be_v some_o dispatch_n of_o business_n for_o if_o he_o can_v speedy_o cure_v you_o he_o will_v yet_o quick_o kill_v you_o but_o with_o the_o lawyer_n there_o be_v no_o such_o expedition_n he_o be_v all_o for_o delay_n and_o if_o his_o tongue_n be_v not_o well_o typt_v with_o gold_n he_o be_v so_o dull_a of_o language_n that_o you_o shall_v not_o hear_v a_o comfortable_a word_n come_v out_o of_o his_o mouth_n in_o a_o whole_a michaelmas_n term_n if_o you_o will_v unlock_v his_o lip_n it_o must_v be_v do_v with_o a_o golden_a fee_n and_o that_o perhaps_o may_v set_v his_o tongue_n at_o liberty_n to_o speak_v sometime_o to_o as_o good_a a_o purpose_n as_o if_o he_o have_v still_o be_v mute_a let_v we_o leave_v the_o lawyer_n to_o his_o study_n and_o let_v we_o now_o look_v a_o little_a in_o at_o the_o court_n gate_n &_o leave_v to_o speak_v of_o those_o few_o in_o number_n that_o do_v aspire_v to_o
