The text is from the 1743 edition of Henry Fielding's (1707 – 1754) work. Fielding was known for his humour and satire; his comic novel Tom Jones is still widely appreciated and he is considered one of the founders of the traditional English novel. He also holds a place in the history of law enforcement: as a magistrate he founded London's first full-time police force.
