Drunk writer refuses tract from a benevolent lady - Irony
Drunk refuses temperance tract from a benevolent lady, unaware that her sozzled target was actually the author of the aforementioned words of wisdom - wonderfully ironic cartoon by Phil May.
Benevolent Lady (distributing tract to inebriate, who has refused to accept one) - "Do take one. If you read it, it'll do you good."
Drunk (pulling himself together) - "Madam, I writes em."
