- Description:
- "A young woman stands within a compass inscribed 'Fear God', holding an open book inscribed 'The Pleasures of Imagination Realized'. At her feet is an open chest full of guineas from which hang bank-notes and jewels; it is inscribed 'The Reward of Virtue'. A small dog stands beside her. In the background (right) is a country house, on the left farm-buildings and haystacks. The four corners are filled ... with the disasters which beset the woman who does not 'keep within compass'. (1) A woman weeps dejectedly with cards and an empty purse on the ground at her feet. (2) A drunken woman lets an infant fall from her arms; on the wall is a torn print inscribed 'Domestic Happiness'. (3) A woman is being conducted to the watch-house by two watchmen, one with his lantern, the other with a rattle. (4) She beats hemp in Bridewell, a man standing behind her with a whip, as in Hogarth's 'Harlot's Progress'. The words round the circle are the same as in BMSat 6903. Beneath the circle is inscribed 'Prudence produceth esteem'."--British Museum catalogue., The first three words of the title at the top and "Prudence produceth Esteem" below, followed by four verses of four lines; and with the whole title around the circumference of the circle., Four verses of four lines begins: Instead of cards my fair-one look, (I beg you'll take it kind) Into some learned author's book, And cultivate your mind. ..., Companion print to: Keep within Compass and you shall be sure, to avoid many troubles which others endure., Reissue of No. 6907 in the Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum.
