Yours of the W^ Curr*" (? past) * * * "are all before 



(After instructions as to the furnishing of Pearces Taverne 

 cheaply he writes)" As Also that the Signe Shall be the Kings 

 Arms : But Quere, whose is the Signe Post." 



"I note what you Write of the Pyramid : and shall long to 

 hear of its being cover'd up for the Winter, much fearing that
