This little sheet was printed by the Kit-Cat Press (n.d). It is self-explanatory. [Info on the Kit-Kat Press much appreciated.]

Heheh. I love this. I am thinking of recreating this quote using modern idiom as it is a good example of the interuptions I get. It will be in some sort of italic, though not Benbow.
Thanks. Bill.
