Español: La continencia de un pastor metodista, o la divinidad en peligro

Un grabado en mezzotinta muestra a un hombre con sombrero de ala ancha y cuello clerical de pie entre dos mujeres que le sujetan los brazos: una mayor con capa con capucha y otra más joven con peinado emplumado y vestido con volantes. Una señal de taberna y edificios de ladrillo enmarcan la calle.

Uma gravura em meia-tinta mostra um homem de chapéu de abas largas e golas clericais, de pé entre duas mulheres que lhe seguram os braços: uma mais velha, de capa com capuz, e outra mais jovem, com penteado emplumado e vestido com babados. Uma placa de taberna e edifícios de tijolo emolduram a rua.
