THETAYLOR’S LAST WILL.

THETAYLOR’S LAST WILL.

I will and bequeath unto Simon Whipstitch,[118]my needle and thimble; unto Peter Niggle, my sheers and bodkin; and unto Mrs. Mary Laycock[118]is my Pincushion, stuck full of needles and pins, to which I sewed a watch-chain, key, and seal with which I used to strut about like a crow in a gutter.[119]
