and then you will be sure of them. To speak honestly,
as the case matter stood at first the gentleman had
something of <add>reason</add> right on his side: it was natural to judge from the
engraved plan. & from that I suppose he judged.
Gentlemen of great
business and in
high stations as
I suppose he is,
can't look narrowly
into lengths: the first
glance was of course
upon the engraved
plan, & that I
suppose was the
last.
In the engraved plan there was nNo wall there round the
building: nor any base to the windows. Set it down
in the street as it stands without walls or base
to it with the prisoners all round and the Keepers
on the inside, to be sure the Prisoners in the lower storey would not
stay long in it: long: the Keepers might call after cry stop thief
them and that's all they could do. but that they would not care for What is

me that I dont cant know
how to make a cage
that will keep a
band in
