What mean you by these wicked pranks, 
First to murder, then give thanks?
Stop!  Preacher stop!  and go no further, 
God accepts no prayers for murder.

(These lines were stuck on the gate of York-Minster, and
also the door of the Dean's house, on the 9th instant, who
was to preach the Thanksgiving Sermon that day; and a reward
of 50 pounds has been advertised to discover the publisher.)
