Picture No 10731740
Date 1868
Description Cruikshank, The Gin Shop, plate 11
Details

This is the text which the good pastor chose, And the light on the soul of the drunkard arose, As he sat in the church, to which one Sabbath-day, Along with his wife he had taken his way, Drawn there by the pastor, so loving and kind, Who brought him the pledge which he joyfully signed; The pastor who pitied the woman's sad case, And her husband, the drunkard, in rags and disgrace.. Illustration 11 of 12 by George Cruikshank to The Gin-Shop, an improving rhyme warning against dangers of drink.
