No. 7 is the “Sausage Woman,” holding a pound of sausages in her hand:—
| “Who buys my sausages, sausages fine? I ha’ fine sausages of the best; As good they are as ere was eat; If they be finely drest. Come, mistris, buy this daintie pound, About a capon roast them round.” |
No. 8 is a man with “Toasting-forks and Spice-graters”:—
| “Buy a fine toasting-fork for toast, Or fine spice-grater—tools for an hoast; If these in winter be lacking, I say, Your guests will pack, your trade decay.” |
No. 9 is the “Broom Man,” and here we have a “cry” different from the one we have already given. He carries a pair of old boots in his hand:—
| “Come buy some brooms, come buy of me: Birch, Heath, and green,—none better be; The staves are straight, and all bound sure; Come, maids, my brooms will still endure. Old boots or shoes I’ll take for brooms, Come buy to make clean all your rooms!” |
No. 10 is a woman with a box of “Wash balls”:—
| “Buy fine washing-balls, buy a ball, Cheaper and dearer, greater and small; For scouring none do them excel, Their odour scenteth passing well; Come buy rare balls, and trial make, Spots out of clothes they quickly take.” |
No. 11 sells Ink and Pens.—He carries an ink-bottle hung by a stick behind him, and has a bunch of pens in his hand:—
| “Buy pens, pens, pens of the best, Excellent pens and seconds the least; Come buy good ink as black as jet, A varnish like gloss on writing ’twill set.” |
