A Decent Story.
[Drawn and etched by James Gillray.]
Pub.d Nov.r 9th 1795, by H. Humphrey, No 37, New Bond Street.
Hand coloured etching, printed border 225 x 295mm (9 x 11½"). Laid on card; lacking margin outside the plate mark at sides.
Five people sit around a table drinking port, a raconteur holding forth. Hannah Humphrey (second right, with distinctive chin) and a parson listen with smiles, although an officer is more interested in the woman at the other end of the table. Although the British Museum describes this print as being 'From a sketch by an amateur', it is likely to be by Gillray, who lived with Hannah Humphrey for many years. This and 'Two-penny Whist' (1796) are intimate scenes of their domestic arrangements: both prints are visible in the Humprey shop window in Gillray's 'Very Slippy-Weather' (1808), alongside Gillray's more famous prints, suggesting a sentimental importance.

Les Deux Aveugles. ou lequel est le plus sage? Garde a Vous, Voila la Comete. Ils sont, soyez en surs, aveugles tous les deux, Mais celui qu'on vous peint prive de ses deux yeaux a du moins pour souliens de sa triste existence Deux fideles amis: son chien, la Providence, L'autre pour s'eclairer perd jusqu'a son repos, Environne de Biens, il ne reve que maux Et voit dans le soleil, par qui tout se feconde, Des taches qui devront causer la fin du monde. Ah! puisqu' avec la science on voit tant d'accidents, Gardons notre ignorance et fuyons les savants.
