| Summary: | Broadside ballad sheet [replete with several spelling and printing errors] printed by Peter Brereton of Dublin, a ballad-sheet printer who flourished in the second half of the 19th century. During this time he occupied various addresses in Dublin city, among them 1 Lower Exchange St. and 55 and 56 Cooke St., Dublin. The first lines of this broadside ballad are: "It is true he is gone now the noble and faithful...". Printed at top of sheet is a woodcut featuring Moses on Mount Sinai, with the two Tablets of Stone (inscribed with the Ten Commandments, represented by the first ten letters of the Hebrew alphabet) to his left. [Saldis is possibly a reference to Sardis?, one of the seven churches of Asia that was addressed by John, the author of the Book of Revelation in the New Testament]. |
