This man was set over my Lord Will-be-will, my Lord Mayor, Mr.Recorder, the subordinate preacher, Mr.Mind, and over all the natives of the town of Mansoul.

Himself was not a native of the town, but came with the Prince from the court above.

He was a great acquaintance of Captain Credence and Captain Good-hope; some say they were kin, and I am of that opinion too.

This man, as I said, was made governor of the town in general, especially over the castle, and Captain Credence was to help him there.
And I made great observation of it, that so long as all things went in the town as this sweet-natured gentleman would have them go, the town was in a most happy condition.

Now there were no jars, no chiding, no interferings, no unfaithful doings in all the town; every man in Mansoul kept close to his own employment.
