[6] This curious series of the Cries of London, drawn after the life, was engraved on 74 copper-plates by Tempesta, after Laroon. It is noticed in Hone's Table Book, vol. ii. p. 131, where twenty of these Cries not now heard in the streets are described, and the following figures are copied. 1. "Buy a fine singing bird," vol. i. p. 510; 2. "Six pence a pound, fair cherries;" and 3. "Troop every one!" the seller of hobby-horses, toys for children, i. 686; 4. "Any New-River water here," p. 733; 5. "Fine Writing Ink;" and 6. "Buy an Iron Fork, or a Spoon," vol. ii. p. 431. The Set of Cries by Paul Sandby, consists of twelve. Both these have many real portraits. (Gough's Brit. Top. i. 689.) N. [7] It is much to be regretted that Mr. Smith never completed this work, for which he had collected valuable materials, which we fear are dispersed. N. [8] Representations of these cressets are given in Douce's "Illustrations of Shakspeare," and in "Hone's Every Day Book," i. 831. N. [9] Stowe, edit. 1618, p. 160. These extracts from Stowe attracted the notice of Mr. Hone, who has inserted them, with many suitable remarks, in his "Every Day Book," i. 827. N. [10] This work was very popular. The eighth edition bears this title: "English Villanies, eight several times prest to Death by the Printers, but still reviving again, are now the eighth time (as at the first) discovered by Lanthorne and Candlelight, &c. Lond. 1618." N. [11] Copied in Hone's "Table Book," vol. i. p. 733. N. [12] Elizabeth, one of the learned and accomplished daughters of Sir Anthony Cooke, Knt. was first married to Sir Thomas Hobye, (who died at Paris in 1566.) She was afterwards married to John Lord Russell, (who died in 1584); and having lived his widow 25 years, was buried at Bisham, June 2, 1609.--Nichols's Progresses of Queen Elizabeth, III. 132. N. [13] Sir Thomas de Veil died Oct. 7, 1746, in his 63d year, and was buried at Denham, Bucks. A good memoir of him will be found in Gent. Mag. for 1747, p. 562. N. [14] Since this work was written, an excellent work on Ancient Furniture has been published, the plates engraved by Henry Shaw, F.S.A. and described by Sir Samuel R. Meyrick, K.H. F.S.A. [15] This appears to have been an adaptation from-- Young Lambs to sell! Young Lambs to sell! If I'd as much money as I could _tell_ I never would cry, Young Lambs to sell! [16] The lovers of saloop can no longer enjoy their favourite beverage at this the original shop, it having been closed as a coffee-house in June 1833, the proprietor having been unfortunately too fond of liquor more spirituous than his own saloop. It is now a shoe-warehouse. N. [17] Lockyer was the name of the first proprietor of the house. [18] Mount Pleasant is in America, and produces the sassafras, from which the proprietor of the above coffee-house made the saloop.
