A graphic account, drawn from Mandeville, has been given elsewhere :* " On the morning of the execution the prisoners have all been brought up into the prison yard, and a hubbub goes on almost as bad as a Jews' market. Loud curses from angry quarrellers, shouts for the pot-boys, who scuttle about, * The English Peasant : Richard Heath. 42 THE LAW ON ITS TRIAL: pouring out ale and other liquids, blows of the blacksmith's hammer, as he pinions those who are going to suffer. At last all is in read...iness, the prisoners have mounted the cart, the Ordinary has got up behind, and Jack Ketch in front ; the soldiers press round for fear of a rescue, and the great gates of the prison are swung open. If it was hubbub within, 'tis the roar of the ocean without. Jack Ketch and his unhappy freight are received with a storm of oaths and coarse ribaldry, in which some of the convicts join, for most of them are already half-drunk. The sorry procession makes its way through a thick mob, which sways to and fro ; the sellers of gin and other liquors bawling loud enough to be heard above the general din.
