As tinker or Christian he always had his sleeves turned up. When he had to try his own cause he put in the jury-box Mr. True-Heart, Mr. Upright, Mr. Hate-Bad, Mr. See-Truth, and other amiable persons. His witnesses were Mr. Know-All, Mr. Tell-True, Mr. Hate-Lies, Mr. Vouch-Truth, Mr. Did-See. His Town Clerk was Mr. Do-Right, the Recorder was Mr. Conscience, the gaoler was Mr.

Art thou guilty of this indictment, or not? Atheism. Not guilty. Crier. Call Mr. Know-All, Mr. Tell-True, and Mr. Hate-Lies into the court. So they were called, and they appeared.

My lord, this Atheism is one of the vilest wretches that ever I came near, or had to do with in my life.

Hate-Lies, what have you to say? Hate. My lord, I have heard him say, that peace, though in a way of unrighteousness, is better than trouble with truth. Clerk. Where did you hear him say this? Hate. I heard him say it in Folly-yard, at the house of one Mr. Simple, next door to the sign of the Self-deceiver. Yea, he hath said this to my knowledge twenty times in that place. Clerk.
