Hind's ramble or, the description of his manner and course of life. Wherein is related the several robberies he hath committed in England, and the escapes he hath made upon several occasions. With his voyage into Holland, and how he cheated a Dutch-man there of 200.l. And from thence went into Ireland, where he did many robberies, and was wounded by some of his own party. With a relation of his going to the Scotch King, where he was made scoutmaster general, and afterwards (as 'tis generally reported) was the onely man that conveyed the Scotch King to London, who since is shipt away for beyond seas. A book full of delight, every story affording its particular jest.
