Southwark: a borough along the south bank of the thames
Dogget sisters promised to protect Joan
Adam ducket didn’t accept help from Barnikel after he was made a serf because
they wouldn’t allow him to have their daughter.
The dogget sisters were duckets and they loved adventure
When the sisters came across joan in tears they decided to help her for adventure
Margery had syphilis but they couldn’t let anyone know or she would get kicked
out of the whorehouse
Margery wished that the king hadn’t thrown out all the jews because there was a
jewish doctor who knew how to cure her
The government borrowed money from the jews and then all the jews went broke
so they kicked out all the jews and their place was taken over by Italian Christian
moneylenders.
Martin fleming is going to be hung because he was trying to catch a robber and he
got the things that were stolen and then he was accused of stealing the jewels.
The jewels were his boss’s and his boss was always suspicious of him anyways so
when he got the jewels from the thief his boss thought that he stole them because
he was the only one who knew where the safe was
Martin like joan because he thought she wasn’t a whore and that she really cared
Willam bull’s grandfather cut off money to Elias bull’s father because his father
was in the riot to kill montfortand put the king back in power.
The Barnikel’s led the riot to burn down the bull’s house
Bulls were leaving London and going to bocton
Many people were leaving London due to many outsider coming into London and
it was becoming intolerable
There was a virgin at the dog’s head and the brothelkeeper told 3 people: William
bull, walter Barnikel, and D. Silversleeves
Bull went to her first and she told him her plan and he decided to follow along.
A hung man can only be saved if he is claimed by a whore. When William bull
came down they Barnikel while he had joan in his hand and as far as they knew
he had already had her.
It’s said that prostitutes and politicians are naturally drawn together
Barnikel was very angry asked for Margery but got Isobel because they cant tell
the difference
Dionysius work the mint, he pursued women and had bad acne
Silversleeves wanted the virgin now but they made him eat and get drunk first the
when he went upstairs with joan, they switch out and he got Margery instead and
got syphilis.
She wore a white stiped dress and hood when she went to the hanging so they
knew she was a whore
She tried to save him but he said he did not want her since she wasn’t pure
anymore.
Bull knew it wasn’t working so bull went to the king to ask for a royal pardon but
didn’t get it so he went to Barnikel who was promoted to parliament and Barnikel
got him the pardon
Barnikel got the pardon to let him know that Barnikel now had more power than
the bulls
Martin and joan got married
Barnikel was made an alderman
Isobel got pregnant with barnikel
