Satire on the church; an old stooping man in an armchair asks his son what he thinks of doing for a living, saying he is too lively for a farmer; the son, sitting square on his chair, hands on his knees and watched by a cat, answers "Why Father if you have no Objection I should like woundily to be bound Prentice to a Bishop, for  they tell I that Trade is all pay and little work! Now that would just suit I to a tittle"; working proof.  5 December 1796
