Broadside with two poems, headed by a wood-engraved vignette of a kneeling slave in chains, 10x8 inches; several small closed tears to the right margin, lightly toned. Np, circa 1840
- Notes: Two poems written apparently for an anti-slavery fair. "Open Thy Mouth" is a reference to Proverbs 31: 8-9, "Open thy mouth, judge righteously and plead the case of the poor and needy."
