DescriptionEarthenware. Molding at base. Front in puce is written: Flowers That Never Fade/ Charity./ Oh! thank you dear ladies for trying to cheer/ A heart that can only reply by a tear/ God reward you and yours for the comforts you give/ And the prayers of an old man be yours while you live. Rural scene on one side, a beggar at the gate on the other.
