Lettering

The true fortun teller or good husbands for mony ... Lettering continues with four verses in unorthodox spelling: "See ladys if youd have your fortunes told / The gipsey speats if you produce yowr gold. / He none you have then silver may perchance / Be kind the stors good husbanes to avance."
