Plate XXX — The Counsellor
This magistrate appears deeply engaged in giving, in the open street, to a rich man, the advices which a little devil, astride on his neck, is blowing into his ears, while he pays no sort of regard to the poor man, who is tapping his shoulder, and in the most suppliant posture asking to be heard. Death seems to be rising from the earth, in indignation, to put an end to this interesting conversation.
