Abstract:
"A kitchen scene. An ugly parson holding a small slice of meat speared on a fork, angrily berates his gardener (right), pointing behind him to a vast round of beef on the table (left). He bawls: 'Tis my Beef you rascal I'll swear to the Complexion of it--& my Bread too! & I'll have you hanged for stealing it. The gardener, a young man holding a spade, draws back in astonishment, saying, Lord love your Reverence my Aunt gave me that slice of Bread & Beef for my dinner to day!! The comely cook holds up her hands and turns up her eyes, exclaiming: O L--d O L--d what a x x x !!!!! it is no more like his Beef than I am--. A mouse scampers off, saying, Besides, if it was Cookee, what a d--d mean wretch to take notice of it-- 'tis time for me to be off! On the table are also a huge loaf, a slice of bread, and a knife. A leg of mutton is on a shelf; a large dresser with dishes, drawers, pots, &c, and a roller towel form a background."--British Museum online catalogue
