FAB. LXIV.

A _Collier_ and a _Fuller_.

A _Fuller_ had a very kind Invitation from a _Collier_ to come and Live

in the House with him. He gave him a Thousand Thanks for his Civility;

but told him that it would not Stand with his Convenience; for (says he)

as fast as I make any thing Clean, You’ll be Smutting it again.
