I am as well acquainted here as I was in our house
\nof profession: one would think it were Mistress
\nOverdone’s own house, for here be many of her old
\ncustomers. First, here’s young Master Rash; he’s in
\nfor a commodity of brown paper and old ginger,
\nninescore and seventeen pounds; of which he made
\nfive marks, ready money: marry, then ginger was not
\nmuch in request, for the old women were all dead.
\nThen is there here one Master Caper, at the suit of
\nMaster Three-pile the mercer, for some four suits of
\npeach-coloured satin, which now peaches him a
\nbeggar. Then have we here young Dizy, and young
\nMaster Deep-vow, and Master Copperspur, and Master
\nStarve-lackey the rapier and dagger man, and young
\nDrop-heir that killed lusty Pudding, and Master
\nForthlight the tilter, and brave Master Shooty the
\ngreat traveller, and wild Half-can that stabbed
\nPots, and, I think, forty more; all great doers in
\nour trade, and are now ‘for the Lord’s sake.’

Why I have as many good friends here as I did in our whorehouse. One would think this was Mistress Overdone\u2019s very own establishment, for I see here sinners aplenty!<\/div>\n
There I see Master Sub-Prime, made his bonuses selling houses made of paper, then he huffed and puffed and blew them down! The pigs, they caught him, and threw him down a well, and there he waits for his bail-out, promises as soon as you pull him out he\u2019ll repay you in kind, open you a fake bank account or 12. \u00a0Then there\u2019s Master Shale Oil over there, he\u2019ll stick his pipeline where he please be the lady willing or not, he\u2019ll swear the condom won\u2019t break, but he springs a leak every time! Mend your ways, Master Shale, our nation runs low on unpolluted women and drinking water alike! Master Shale\u2019s not actually in jail, he\u2019s just visiting his friend the banker who\u2019s still down the well. \u00a0Then we\u2019ve got Master Weiner the texter, and young Master Porn-Hub. \u00a0And there\u2019s Master LoveGood killing in the name of life, while Master HateGood guards his yard with his 45! \u00a0And Master Troll the Internet bully, and Master \u2018Is this a roofie in my pocket or am I just happy to see you\u2019, and fancy Master Elite the absentee liberal, and Master All-Lives-Matter \u00a0tilting at windmills while his house burns, and I think I see forty more, all great doers in our trade, now crying in vain for the Lord\u2019s aid!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
