Description | The Landlord from The Gin-Shop by Cruikshank |
Details |
This is the Landlord who coins his bright gold,~~Out of the ruin of youthful and old,~~Who drink the strong liquors he sells night and day,~~At the bar of the Gin-shop, so glittering and gay.~~~~Illustration no. 4 of 12 by George Cruikshank to The Gin-Shop, a moralistic rhyme warning of the ruin gin can cause.
