F- boring money out of a Jew [graphic].[10 June 10 1784?]eng"A Jew, bound by a rope, crouches kneeling on a low bench which he holds with both hands. Fox stands behind him (left) holding with both hands the handle of an auger with which he is boring the Jew's posteriors. He says, "I'll bore you by ---- If you don't produce money immediately: you Jewish Son of a bitch". The Jew says, "O Shweet Shir let me up and You shall have the monies". Over the Jew is etched: 'A few days since, a Jew, well known in the Alley, applied to a certain Person for the payment of a large sum that he had lent him; but instead of paying him, He had him tied to a Form, and actually with an auger, began the operation of boring him, until he promised, never again to ask him for it, until he thought proper to pay him - And also made him swear to get him a thousand pounds more, instantly. - This is a fact well authenticated.'"--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Publication date mostly burnished from plate; date from British Museum catalogue.Sheet trimmed within plate mark.Temporary local subject terms: Tools: auger -- Persecuted Jews -- Torture: boring with an auger -- Charles James Fox's indebtness -- Puns: 'PiccAbilly' [i.e., William Pitt].
