[News from London] Extract of a letter from Worcester, Nov.
19 The spirit of the people here is to the full as high as
in the city of London; every day as Sir Watkin Lewes goes in
and out of court, he is attended by a prodigious concourse
of people, and many of the most respectable inhabitants,
with colours flying, music playing, and two pages walking
before him in kid leather. . . [5 more lines] the populace
unharnessed the horses, and with a drum beating and a fife
playing before him, conducted him, as on a triumphal car, to
the place of his invitation. [5 more lines]
