squatting on his board in a squalid hovel; his half-starved 'helper'
is seated by his side; both are pressing garments with hot irons, and
a rough and ragged urchin is heating a further supply of the article
known as 'a tailor's goose' at the grate; while a street hawker, a
blowsy Hibernian, is screaming her wares (cucumbers and cabbages) in
at the doorway. This picture bears some resemblance to a caricature
published by Rowlandson in 1823, under the title _Hot Goose, Cabbage,
and Cucumbers_.
