| Price, | l. | s. | d. |
| 1. MRS. Mary H—n, a tall, graceful, comely Woman, indebted for two thirds of her beauty to Washes and the Patch-box; she mightily frequents the Raffling-shops, very shy of allowing her Favours; but the present of Silver Furniture for her Chamber may mollifie her, which will cost you but | 20 | 00 | 00 |
| 2. Mrs. Eliz. H—n, her Sister, as well by Iniquity as by birth; the very Ape of Female Quality, both as to her Dress and Carriage; she is very indifferent as to matter of money, but a Supper of two Guineas may tempt her to be kind. | 02 | 03 | 00 |
| 3. Mrs. Eliz. B—w, a very fine Woman, who has been a Dealer in Cullies ever since she was fifteen; modest and pleasant enough, till after the third bottle, but then Messalina her self was not half so impudent; she has several prizes for her Ware, but her usual price is | 01 | 01 | 06 |
| 4. Mrs. Di— P—r, a very fair Woman, and loves none but those of her own Complexion, has a sort of Sparks who buz about her, like Flies about a Honey-pot; whoever engages her to a Glass or Wine must reckon himself fortunate if he comes off for | 03 | 04 | 06 |
| 5. Mrs. Dorothy R—t, a tall comely Woman, a little red-faced, by drinking too much Usquebagh when she lived near Essex-Street; she would be thought, by her haughtiness, to be a Woman of condition, but those who know her better, are sensible she will allow a Man her company for a bottle. | 00 | 01 | 04 |
| 6. Mrs. Sarah F—r, a great two-handed Strapper, having no Charms either in Person or Humour; yet will follow her old Trade, though she is kickt and bumpt about almost every Night; if she snaps a Cully his Pocket must pay | 00 | 05 | 00 |
| 7. Posture Moll, a plump brown Woman, but so very well known, (that as Nicholas Culpepper says of some Herbs and Plants,) she needs no description; the usual price of her Raree-show is | 00 | 02 | 06 |
| 8. Mrs. Y—g, her Disciple or Deputy, who studied the Mathematicks under her, and has improved finely; her price is the same with her Mistresses; but she will pick your Pocket if she can, and then it may cost more than | 00 | 02 | 06 |
| 9. Mrs. Mary L—d, a constant frequenter of the eighteen penny Gallery in the Play-house; plump and jolly, if her impudence don't dash you out of countenance; at first meeting her price is 5 s. but you may perswade her to abate a shilling. | 00 | 05 | 00 |
| 10. Mrs. Martha K—g, a little fat Woman, known last Winter by her Velvet Gown and Petticoat, which was [...] Tyburn Degacy; she has a very particular way of inflaming a Reckoning, so that you who thought to have come off for your 2 shillings may spend before yu part | 01 | 01 | 06 |
| [Page 2] 11. Mrs. Abigail T—y, a tall slender Woman, a great frequenter of Covent Garden Prayers, who makes her Devotion a Bawd to her Lust, her price is | 00 | 10 | 00 |
| 12. Mrs. Susan C—n, the errantest she Hypocrite living; all bawdry with her is but Natural Philosophy; at her first coming into Company she appears a Saint, but produce the Ready, and she tacks about; her usual rate is | 00 | 07 | 06 |
| 13. Mrs. Bridget W—ms, a pretty little black Woman, has not been debauch'd above two years, not yet a Mistress of her profession; the usual custom being to give her half a Crown, and then to Bully her of the Money again | 00 | 02 | 06 |
| 14. Mrs. Dorothy E—ds, a very fair Woman, who kept a Coffce-house near Charing-Cross, has a particular fancy for Soldiers, from the embroidered Officer to the thredbare Red-coat Centinel; her prizes are various, and therefore 'tis left to the kind Cully's discretion. | 00 | 00 | 00 |
| 15. Mrs. Katharine D—r, a Woman that loves a Vizor-mask to that degree of fondness, that she lies in one every Nig [...]t; she may pass for a Woman of tolerable understanding while she is so obscured; but the Disguise taken off, instead of inviting, she frightens you from an Intreague. | 00 | 00 | 00 |
| 16. Mrs. Sarah VV—ks, a tall brown Woman, newly come out of a Flux, she dresses as fine as Gause and painted Callico can make her, if you mount the Guard, the price, with Saddle and Furniture, is | 00 | 10 | 00 |
| 17. Mrs. Peggy L—ly, a sly infinuating Crack, who in company always talks of her Husband at Sea; her whole Cargo, with Topsails and Rigging, are hardly worth 10 shillings; but beware of her lower tire, for several have to their sorrow found her a Fire-ship. | 00 | 00 | 00 |
| 18. Mrs. M—ws, formerly a Plyer in Salisbury-Court, known by her Teeth jutting out before; her good rigging makes her pass for a first-rate Crack; her demands are commonly a Guinea, but those who have dealt in the Commodity know she will take | 00 | 02 | 06 |
| 19. Mrs. Sarah H—th, a very black Woman, who has several times attempted to turn honest, but her itching flesh won't let her, and so is forced to continue a Crack in her own defence; her demand is | 00 | 02 | 06 |
| 20. Mrs. A—ld, her quondam Companion, with a Nose like a Bollonia Lapdog, she has been lately in the Powdering-tub of Affliction; a good easie Girl, who scorns to ask for money, but will not take it unkindly if you present her with a Crown for her Company. | 00 | 05 | 00 |
| 21. Mrs. VV—by, formerly Miss to Col. S—field in Irelend, but reduced to that necessity, that she who formerly refused five Guineas for the allowance of a private Favour, will now take up with any ordinary Fellow for — | 00 | 01 | 00 |
| 22. Mrs. Eliz. (alias Betty) S—ds, formerly a Retailer of Oranges at the Playhouse; the very Quintessence of Leudness, who brags shehas been tilted at by as many Lances, as there are Men in the Confederate Army: her price is 5 s. and a Clap she gives into the bargain. | 00 | 05 | 00 |
