Abstract:
"Two battered Greenwich Pensioners, one missing all four limbs, the other an arm and a leg, in conversation outside a building marked 'The Helpless Ward' of the Hospital Infirmary, with three other severely incapacitated veterans beside it. The inscription below the title reports the conversation: ' Ah! Messmate, you are a happy Fish to what I am. you have only got an Arm and a Leg lopp'd off. Whilst I hav'n't a Limb left about me but what's of Timber, with one Eye out and my Nose damaged.'- 'Go it Joe, grumble, grumble. You are like the rest of th' World. Never contented.'."--Royal Museums Greenwich online catalogue
