and draw a
veil over this scene of tenderness; let it suffice to say, that their joy
was too full to be contained, and, not finding any other passage, gushed
out in tears.

The next morning, accompanied by his wife and daughter, he went and paid
his respects to Sir Thomas Carew, at Hackum, where they were received
with great kindness; and Sir Thomas told him, if he would forsake the
mendicant order, he would take care to provide for him and his family.
He returned Sir Thomas a great many thanks, but declared, that, as he had
entered himself into the mendicant order, he was resolved to continue
therein as long as he lived; but hoped if any accident happened to him,
he would extend his goodness to his dear wife and daughter.

It was about this time, that one of the greatest personages in the
kingdom being at Bath, Mr. Carew was drawn thither with the rest of the
world to see her, but to more advantage indeed to himself than most
others reaped from it; for making himself as much an Hanoverian as he

Carew was made very welcome, and the company had a great deal of
conversation with him, during which Mr. Morrice very nicely examined
every feature in his countenance, and at last declared, that he would lay
any wager that he should know him again, come in what shape he would, so
as not to be imposed upon by him. One of the company took Mr. Morrice
up, and a wager was laid that Mr. Carew should do it within such a
limited time; this being agreed upon, Mr. Carew took his leave. He soon
began to meditate in what shape he should be able to deceive the
circumspection of Mr. Morrice; and in a few days came to the house, and
endeavoured in two or three different shapes, and with as many different
tales, to obtain charity from Mr.
