O Rara Show, A Rara Shight! A Strange Monster, (the like not in EUROPE) To be seen near Tower-hill, a few doors beyond the Lions Den.  
IT hath the shape of a Man, but in its Nature is a mere Savage Beast; looks as fierce as a Tiger, but has scarce the Courage of a Mouse. It has vast Lungs, but no Heart; has wild gogling Eyes, but they are very unbiased: It has a huge ravenous Mouth, but that being an open Sepulchre of Religion and Law, and having the Poison of Malice under its Lips, sends forth a Breath very offensive. It hates all other Creatures, and delights much in their Blood, but is very fearful of seeing its own. It has fed so much for five Years last passed upon Blood and Corruption, that it looks as ghastly as Envy and Despair without, and is as black as Hell within.  

An Account of the Birth and Growth of this Monster.  
IT was whelped and bred in Wales, where it ate so much Goat's Milk, that it has been very subject of late Years to have Horns sprout forth of its Head. It gave early Proofs of a hardy substantial Impudence, and was never known to blush, though sometimes to look pale. It's peculiar Talon appeared to be Yelling aloud; and that by a wealthy Citizen's means, preferred it to be the Common Barker of Guildhall, and afterwards to be the Foul Mouth of the City, in which place it continued, till having confederated with some Wolves, and preyed upon some Sheep Skins that contained the City Charter, three or four hundred Men from Westminister hunted it from thence. But this Virtue of Falsehood to its Trust soon advanced it to be chief Inquisitor of the Nation, and then it and its Confederate Wolves fell upon the old Sheep Skins in the Tower, and devoured Magna Charta. And now it ranged into the Western Forest, attended with Jackcalls to hunt down its Game, and was so ravenous, that if great quantities of Gold and Silver had not been chucked into its Mouth, to blunt the Edge of its Teeth, and fill its Maw, it was thought it would have sucked up the Blood of the whole Country. At its return, this Monster was dignified with a fine Collar and a Pouch, to the great Dishonour and Scandal of both; and was trusted with the Custody of a certain large Conscience, for which it was a proper Keeper, and had room enough, having none of its own. It exposed this Conscience to Sale for three Years together, and to such as would give its own lusty Price, it retailed it pretty civilly; but at such as begged any, or offered an underrate, it roared hideously, even to the disturbance of the whole Neighbourhood.  
The Great and Brave Monster-Hunter of Europe being arrived in England to hunt here, our Monster dropped its gay Trappings, and cteeping into poor Weeds, resolved (contrary to its fearful Temper) to take the Water, in hope to escape; but Nature recoiling at the danger, it first sneaked into a little Alehouse to fortify itself with a Noggin of Brandy, whither it was traced by its strorng Scent of Man's Blood, and of its Posteriors, and delivered to the Masters of the Game to be kept for the Chase.  
It is agreed to give this Monster fair Law, though it never gave any to other Creatures; but it is feared the weight of its Paunch will disable it for leaping over the Toils, and that it will run its Head into a Noose.  
The Price is two Pence for each Spectator; but they are desired not to delay time, for it will not be to be seen in this place above a Month or six Weeks longer.
