Wat Dreary, alias Brown Will, an irregular Dog,
who hath an underhand way of disposing of his Goods. I'll try him
only for a Sessions or two longer upon his Good-behaviour. Harry
Paddington, a poor petty-larceny Rascal, without the least Genius;
that Fellow, though he were to live these six Months, will never come
to the Gallows with any Credit. Slippery Sam; he goes off the next
Sessions, for the Villain hath the Impudence to have Views of
following his Trade as a Tailor, which he calls an honest Employment.
Mat of the Mint; listed not above a Month ago, a promising sturdy
Fellow, and diligent in his way; somewhat too bold and hasty, and may
raise good Contributions on the Public, if he does not cut himself
short by Murder. Tom Tipple, a guzzling soaking Sot, who is always
too drunk to stand himself, or to make others stand. A Cart is
absolutely necessary for him. Robin of Bagshot, alias Gorgon, alias
Bluff Bob, alias Carbuncle, alias Bob Booty.
[Enter Mrs. Peachum.]
MRS. PEACHUM. What of Bob Booty, Husband? I hope nothing bad hath
betided him.
