Mind, when he was also committed
to prison, and their names were Gripe and Rake-All; these he begat
of Mr. Mind's bastard daughter, whose name was Mrs. Hold-fast-
Bad;)--I say, when his children perceived how the Lord Willbewill
had served them that dwelt with him, what do they but, lest they
should drink of the same cup, endeavour to make their escape. But
Mr. Mind, being wary of it, took them and put them in hold in his
house till morning; (for this was done over night;) and remembering
that by the law of Mansoul all Diabolonians were to die, (and to be
sure they were at least by father's side such, and some say by
mother's side too,) what does he but takes them and puts them in
chains, and carries them to the selfsame place where my lord hanged
his two before, and there he hanged them.
The townsmen also took great encouragement at this act of Mr. Mind,
and did what they could to have taken some more of these
Diabolonian troublers of Mansoul; but at that time the rest lay so
squat and close, that they could not be apprehended; so they set
against them a diligent watch, and went every man to his place.
