e feel, when he saw young _Goodland_ and
_Philibella_ in bed together; the last of which return'd him humble and
hearty Thanks for her Portion and Husband, as the first did for his
Wife. He shook his Head at Sir _Philip_, and without speaking one Word,
left 'em, and hurry'd to _Lucy_, to lament the ill Treatment he had met
with from _Friendly_. They coo'd and bill'd as long as he was able; she
(sweet Hypocrite) seeming to bemoan his Misfortunes; which he took so
kindly, that when he left her, which was about three in the Afternoon,
he caus'd a Scrivener to draw up an Instrument, wherein he settled a
hundred Pounds a Year on _Lucy_ for her Life, and gave her a hundred
Guineas more against her Lying-in: (For she told him, and indeed 'twas
true, that she was with child, and knew her self to be so from a very
good Reason--) And indeed she was so--by the _Friendly_ Knight. When he
return'd to her, he threw the obliging Instrument into her Lap;
(it seems he had a particular Kindness for that Place--) then call'd for
Wine, and something to eat; for he had not drank a Pint to his Share all
the Day, (tho' he had ply'd it at the Chocolate-House.--) The Landlady,
who was invited to sup with 'em, bid 'em good-night, about eleven; when
they went to bed, and partly slept till about six; when they were
entertain'd by some Gentleman of their Acquaintance, who play'd and sung
very finely, by way of _Epithalamium_, these Words and more:

_Joy to great +Bantam!+
Live long, love and wanton!
And thy Royal Consort!
For both are of one Sort, +&c.+_

The rest I have forgot. He took some Offence at the Words; but more at
the Visit that Sir _Philip_, and _Goodland_, made him, about an Hour
after, who found him in Bed with his Royal Consort; and after having
wish'd 'em Joy, and thrown their Majesties own Shoes and Stockings at
their Head, retir'd. This gave Monarch in Fancy so great a Caution that
he took his Royal Consort into the Country, (but above forty Miles off
the Place where his own Lady was) where, in less than eight Months, she
was deliver'd of a Princely Babe, who was Christen'd by the Heathenish
Name of _Hayoumorecake Bantam_, while her Majesty lay in like a pretty
Queen.
