The mirrour of cruelty : being a true and just account of two most notorious and barbarous murthers lately perpetrated by the bloody hands of inhumane and butcherly villians. One being committed at East-Hanvil, in the county of Essex, on Fryday the 25th of May, 1683 upon the body of a widow, once living the town aforesaid, who was murdered by one that she ahd lent money to, and was stabbed under the left pap, had her skull broke, and her throat cut by this monster of nature. The other wicked and bloody piece of barbarity was acted at Barnet, 10 miles from London, by two luxurious villiams, now lying in goal at St. Albans, in the county of Hertford, who after they had shamefully and wickedly (committed each of them) a rape upon a shop-keepers wife in the town aforementioned, most sadly and without pitty, cut the throat of the said woman, and are now confined to receive the reward due to such, as shall without shame of pitty, be guilty of the like villany. Licensed and entred according to order.
