“Pity the Sorrows of a Poor Old Man.” The upper picture is that of a
room with a fire in the chimney-place on one side, a well-filled supper
table on the other, the door in the middle. The under picture has a
background of a winter landscape, with an old blind man, leaning on his
staff, and taking off his hat, so placed as to seem to be on the
threshold.
“How glad they will be to see me!” The upper picture is a street, with a
man about to open the door; the under picture a room, in which several
children are quarrelling, amidst a chaos of broken toys, furniture, and
looking-glass, with mamma upsetting the tea-table in trying to beat a
bad boy teasing the cat.
