An illustration from Rhymes for children : illustrated with appropriate wood-cuts, 1919, leaf 32
THE HUSBANDMAN Ye pamperd great, who proudly rideIn gilded coaches, as ye glide Along the crowded street;Scorn not the man who tills the fields,Who reaps the fruits which autumn yields, That rich and poor may eat. 26 … Tho Fortune adverse, for his homeHas raisd in state no splendid dome, Nor spread upon his boardDelicious dainties—and his name,Unblazond in the roles of Fame, Is lost among the crowd.
