The Fleet: Its Rivers, Prison, and Marriages
Transcriber's Note:
A single click on an illustration or decoration will give an enlarged view.
The letters 'u' and 'v' are often interchanged; as, e.g., in haruest time and vnder a bridge .
Some of the spelling is very old, and often phonetic (they wrote as they heard it spoken, dialects and all).
An additional transcriber's note is at the end of the text.
The cover image was produced by the transcriber and is placed in the public domain.
