shall be, when they behold my face, that their
purse strings shall relax, and they shall repIen-
lsh the treasures OF my lord the king. AMI
the saying pleased the king well.
So Robert went unto Gotham unto The sea,
of The money changers. And he wen, un.o
the chief banker named Fllnlhear, aud be
thousand talents of gold and The king will SEQ
the repaid" But Finlheart rolled up The white
Of his eyes and answered him, saying, Is III,
servant green, .ha. he should do this grea.
Thing" Likewise also said all the bankers
But when the king heard thereof, he was
greatly troubled, and wisl not what to do ; like
wise Marcy the scribe rent his pants"
Now Richie, surnamed the /" Father" was
privy counsellor to The king. and the same was
cunning man, and plausible, aud full of all
manner Of hypocrisy, and deceit, and ser, ed
diligently his father The devil. Aud he crep,
xlealthIly at midnight unto the king and sal5
unto him, why is the counlenance of my lord
the king cast down! Are not all the peopls
as grass in thy sight! Now, therefore. lei a
tax be imposed on tea and coffee, so shall thy
treasures be filed" And the king sought to
do according 10 the word of Ritche hu the
people murmured against him, and would no,
be taxed.
In those days The spirit moved Zachariah To
write letter to his kinsman, and il was noised
abroad through all the land. And The thing
troubled The king, aud he would have laid
hands On Zachariah bur he feared the people
for all The people loved Zacharah, and desired
TO make him klng.-but the king made de-
cree, that whatever soldier should write to his
kinsiolk or acquaintance, should he hanged ON
galIows fifty cubits high So the land had
rest from The sciibes and quill-driyers.
