Picture No 10731741
Date 1868
Description Cruikshank, The Gin Shop, plate 12
Details

This is the cottage, the home of delight, Whence prayer, like an incense, ascends day and night, Where joy and contentment sit smiling so bright - Whence came this glad home where such comforts unite? From the heaven-blest text which the pastor chose, When light on the soul of the drunkard arose, As he sat in the church, to which each Sabbath-day, His wife and he, happy at heart, take their way, Drawn there by the pastor, so noble and kind, Who brought him the pledge which he joyfully signed.
