CELEBRATED MR. MARTIN VAN BUTCHELL. 207
Fistulae and Piles—best my genius fit: very broad is art-
narrow human wit: tho’ man was complete: (--Ashe
ought to be with an hairy chin.—) Lovely women hate
fops effeminate.—-Time approaches when among certain
men—in another age beards—will—be—the—rage !
To many I refer—for my character : each will have the
grace—to write out his case ; soon as he is well—an history
tell: for the public goodso save hamane blood : as—;all
—true—folk—shou’d. Sharkish people may—keep them-
selves away. Those that use men ill—I never can heal;
being forbidden—to cast pearls to pigs ; lest—they—turn—•
and—tear. Wisdom makes dainty: patients come to me,
with heavy guineas,—between ten and one: but—1—go—to
—none.
Mender of Mankind ; in a manly way.
In another advertisement he says, That your Majesty’s
Petitioner is a British Christian Man aged fifty-nine—-with
a comely beard—full eight inches long. That your Ma-
jesty’s Petitioner was born in the County of Middlesex-
brought up in the County of Surrey—and has never been
out of the Kingdom of England. That your Majesty’s
Petitioner (—about ten years ago—) had often the high
honour (—before your Majesty’s Nobles) of conversing
with your Majesty (—face to face—) when we were hunt-
ing of the stag—on Windsor Forest.
British Christian Lads. (—t( Behold—now is the day-
of salvation. Get understanding :—as the highest gain.—)
Cease looking boyish:—become quite manly! (Girls are
fond of hair:—it is natural.)—-Let your beards grow
long: that ye may he strong :—in mind—and body: as
were great grand dads:—-centuries ago; when John did not
owe—a single penny : more—than—he—could—pay.
