Description
English: illustration from:

The Deserted Village by Oliver Goldsmith with illustrations by Hammatt Billings

caption: And all the village train, from labor free, Led up their sports beneath the spreading tree; While many a pastime circle in the shade, The young contending as the old surveyed; And many a gambol frolicked o'er the ground, And sleights of art and feats of strength went round; And still, as each repeated pleasure tired, Succeeding sports the mirthful band inspired; The dancing pair that simply sought renown,

By holding out, to tire each other down;
Date before 1874
