A midwife holds out a newborn child, who exhibits a combination its parents' physical traits: the nose of its mother, who lies in bed, and the hook arm, peg leg, glasses and queue of its father, who stands proudly at the foot of the bed. The midwife exclaims, "My good gracious! Hear's [sic] a family likeness for ye. It's Daddy all over with Mammy's nose. Bless it's [sic] little soul. Hey diddle diddle."
