Ah me! that thou the freshman's-guide should'st read, yet venture on the hallowed grass to tread [graphic].Gillray, James, 1756-1815, printmaker[22 October 1806]eng"The undergraduate walks diagonally (right to left) across the grass of a College court; under his arm is a book: 'Advice to Freshmen'. Behind him (right) the grossly obese Master stands in a Gothic doorway leading from a staircase, pointing angrily at the culprit. A shambling man with a broom stands obsequiously beside the doorway, looking over his shoulder apprehensively at the unconscious undergraduate, who leaves a trail of conspicuous footprints on the turf. A Fellow in a mullioned window next the doorway scowls at the young man through a glass."--British Museum online catalogueTitle from text within curly brackets below image, following series title.Printmaker from British Museum catalogue.Second of five prints in a series entitled: The rake's progress at the university.
