MR BUCKSTONE AS LAUNCELOT GOBBO./ "I cannot get a service, no! I have ne'er a tongue/ in my head._ Well (looking on his palm), if any man/ in Italy have a fairer table, which doth offer to/ swear upon a book I shall have good fortune. Go to,/ here's a simple line of life! here's a small trifle of wives."/ MERCHANT OF VENICE/ Act 2, Sc. 2./ Engraved by Hollis from a Daguerreotype by Mayall./ THE LONDON PRINTING AND PUBLISHING COMPANY
