Abstract
45
DRUNKARDS, READ THIS!
DRUNKENNESS
EXPELS REASON,
DISTEMPERS THE BODY,
DIMINISHES STRENGTH,
INFLAMES THE BLOOD;
CAUSES {INTERNAL EXTERNAL ETERNAL INCURABLE} WOUNDS;
IS
A WITCH TO THE SENSES,
A DEMON TO THE SOUL,
A THIEF TO THE PURSE,
A GUIDE TO BEGGARY, LECHERY, & VILLAINY.
IT IS
THE WIFE'S WOE, AND
THE CHILDREN'S SORROW.
MAKES A MAN
WALLOW WORSE THAN A BEAST, AND
ACT LIKE A FOOL.
HE IS
A SELF-MURDERER ;
WHO DRINKS TO ANOTHER GOOD HEALTH,
AND
ROBS HIMSELF OF HIS OWN.
This image shows how the temperance movement saw drunkenness leading to ruin, including the degradation of family life and self harm.
