Physical description: 1 print : etching. Notes: Sold by John Overton at the white horse without Newgate.; Includes verse: How blest am I and what a happie life / Doe I injoy but I may thank my Wife / Tis shee that rais'd my fortune all this store / Her ocupation brings: and tenn times more / In my conceit; hees more then mad that scornes / To weare such pretious, profitable Hornes / To be a Cuckold why should I repine / The disgrace is my Wifes; the profit mine.; Forms part of: British Cartoon Prints Collection (Library of Congress). |
