and Misery which Sin is always attended with. She declar'd, that she dy'd in Charity with all the World; and wish'd she were able to make Satisfaction and Reparation to the Persons she had wrong'd; whose Pardon she begg'd: Which, she said, was the only thing she could now do; desiring God to bless them, and to forgive her.

This Day Margaret Green< no role > and Jane Dyer< no role > being carry'd (in a Cart) to Tyburn , I met them there: And having asked them, whether they had any thing more to say, in order to the clearing of their Consciences, and disposing themselves for an easie and happy Departure out of this miserable World, in which God did not think fit they should continue any longer: They told me, They had nothing more to say, but desir'd my Prayers for them, and the Prayers of all good People, while there was Breath in them; This they both of them did desire, but particularly Jane Dyer< no role > , who was very earnest with me, That I should do (as she phrased it) my Duty to God for her Soul, till she was quite dead. I exhorted them to lift up their Affections to God more and more, and to pray earnestly to the t, for the Assistance of his Divine Spirit, and the free Pardon of all their Sins: For which I also made Prayers, and in their behalves desired the Standers by to join therein. Then we sung a Penitential Psalm, and rehearsed the Articles of our Christian Faith. Which being done, and some further Admonitions made to them, they spoke to the People to this Effect, That they would take Warning by them; and not to Swear, Lie, Curse, and Blaspheme, nor break the Sabbath day, and neglect God's Service, and do ill things as they had done: For which they were now justly punished in this World, and without God's infinite Mercy, should be much more severely punish'd in the next. Margaret Green< no role > warned all Young Women and Old, not to keep Company with idle and wicked Fellows, and maintain them by Thieving, which was the thing that had brought her to this her sad shameful, and untimely End. After this, I pray'd again, and sung another Psalm; and then committing them to God, and the Power of his Grace, I withdrew from them: Who having some time allow'd for their private Devotions, cry'd to God for Mercy in these and the like Ejaculations, Lord have Mercy upon me, (said each of them) Lord Jesu one Drop of thy precious Blood to my polluted sinful Soul! Lord save me! And Jane Dyer< no role > in particular had these Expressions, Lord Jesu, Thou diedst for me: O let me patiently suffer, according to thy Will! O receive me to thy self! Lord, I come, I come. And both of them. O Sweet Jesu, Dear Jesu, have Mercy upon us! O Father of Mercies have Mercy upon us! O Holy, Blessed, and Glorious Trinity have Mercy upon us; The speaking again to the Standers by, said, Good People pray for us, pray to God for our precious Souls. To all which they sometimes, each one by her self, and sometimes joyntly, added many other fervent Ejaculations and Liftings up of their Souls to God. While they were thus praying, the Cart drew away, and they were turn'd off, and their Souls launched into their Eternal State.

Whereas it lately happen'd in a publick Place, that some Words were spoken in undue Reflection upon the Ordinary of Newgate, as if he us'd to administer the Lord's Supper to Condemn'd Persons for Temporal Ends: The said Ordinary, in just Vindication of his Ministry, which he has ever discharg'd Conscientiously both towards God and those poor Souls under his Care, finds himself oblig'd to give this publick notice; That he never administred that Holy Sacrament to any Prisoners with other intent or regard, than for their Spiritual and Eternal Good; and that he is so far from having fought any Temporal Advantage that way, that ever since his being Ordinary of Newgate, he has provided Bread and Wine for that Sacred Use there, at his own Charge: Neither has he ever received any Promise, or Gratuity, for his representing the Case of Malefactors, better or worse, than it really appear'd to his Judgment; nor was he ever Brib'd for obtaining, or endeavouring to obtain Reprieves for any. Of the Truth of all which he is ready to make Oath.

This is all the Account here to be given of this Session by

PAUL LORRAIN< no role > , Ordinary of Newgate .

WHEREAS some Persons take the Liberty of putting out Sham-Papers, pretending to give an Account of the Malefactors that are Executed; in which Papers they are so defective, and unjust, as sometimes to mistake even their Names and Crimes, and often quite misrepresent the State they plainly appear to be in under their Condemnation, and at the time of their Death: To prevent which great Abuses, These are to give Notice, That the only true Account of the Dying Criminals, is that which comes out the next Day afte their Execution, about 8 in the Morning, the Title whereof constantly begins with these Words, The ORDINARY of NEWGATE his Account of the Behaviour, &c.
