Fears for the Presbyterian Church Government, and of being burdened with the English National Debts.
John Bull, otherwise a good-natured man, was very hard-hearted to his sister Peg, chiefly from an aversion he had conceived in his infancy.
While he flourished, kept a warm house, and drove a plentiful trade, poor Peg was forced to go hawking and peddling about the streets selling knives, scissors, and shoe-buckles; now and then carried a basket of fish to the market; sewed, spun, and knit for a livelihood, till her fingers' ends were sore; and when she could not get bread for her family, she was forced to hire them out at journey-work to her neighbours.

Yet in these her poor circumstances she still preserved the air and mien of a gentlewoman--a certain decent pride that extorted respect from the haughtiest of her neighbours.
