I am up to the ears in it all—
every moment I can spare. The material cares of life hang about your neck
like a millstone. Everywhere there are limitations. We close the chapter. The neighbouring houses were tenanted by the lowest order of
insolvent traders, thieves, mendicants, and other worthless and nefarious
characters, who fled thither to escape from their creditors, or to avoid the
punishment due to their different offenses; for we may observe that the Old
Mint, although it had been divested of some of its privileges as a sanctuary by a
recent statute passed in the reign of William the Third, still presented a safe
asylum to the debtor, and even continued to do so until the middle of the reign of
George the First, when the crying nature of the evil called loudly for a remedy,
and another and more sweeping enactment entirely took away its immunities. Her safety lay in pretense—that
what she saw was as a tale twice told. Admire her as
much as you choose—at a distance.
