Patience; or, A bad job an original tale. Written by the author of Speculation (BM 1861,0518.1020), Illustration to verses printed in two columns. An elderly parson, holding his pipe, his back to the fire, makes gestures of rage towards his servant (right), who hurries terrified from the room. His wife (left) holds his coat to restrain him. The verses relate that after a sermon on the misfortunes of Job, the parson told his wife that his 'patience and strength of mind' were equal to Job's, though she (like other women) was incapable of such restraint. His servant enters to tell him that the contents of a cask of ale had been spilt. His wife reproaches him for his violent abuse: "Job was not half so vext. . ."; he says: "Answer me this, I say - Did Job e'er lose A Barrel of such Ale?"  20 November 1798
