All have punning titles. [1] A young calf, led by a butcher, runs off, throwing the man to the ground. A dog barks, an amused woman watches from a casement window. Scrawled on the cottage wall is 'H Soak for ever.' 'Pluck', a butcher's term for edible offal, was then pugilistic slang (from c. 1785). [2] A fat market woman on a shaggy pony has a turkey tied by the legs to the back of her saddle. Unknown to her a dog drags at its neck. An amused man watches from behind a tree. [3] A pig is being driven with a three-cornered yoke over its head. A man rides beside it; the horse puts a hind-leg over the animal's back so that the pastern is caught under the yoke. [4] A boy drags forward a bad-tempered pig by a cord tied to its hind-leg. A youth plies a whip, a dog barks. Beside them is a signpost: 'To Rumford'. 'Rusty', a slang term for ill-tempered."--British Museum online catalogue</dc:description><dc:description>Titles etched below images.</dc:description><dc:description>Printmaker, publisher, and date of publication from British Museum catalogue.</dc:description><dc:description>Plate numbered "30" in upper right corner.</dc:description><dc:description>Plate from: Woodward, G.M.
