pie, Sir? Will you have a goose-berry-pie,
Sir? Will you have a cherry-pie, Sir?
Will you have a currant-pie, Sir? Will
you have a plum-pie, Sir? Will you have
a pigeon-pie, Sir ?"" Any pie, Madam,
but a magpie."

You are at liberty, Sir, to make what use
you think proper of these anecdotes, to
which the shortness of my stay in London
will not allow me to make any present addi-
tion. In narrating them I have preferred
perspicuity to ornament, and fidelity to a
polished expression. They are the rough
transcript of my heart; and I have no time
to make a second copy of them, or to give
them a more finished dress.

I am, Sir,

Your very humble Servant,

THEOPHILUS SWIFT.

St. Paul's Church-yard.
