[A Bag of Coins]

Description
-
A pouch overflowing with coins sits on the floor, hanging open to the left. The image is occasioned by the Squire of the Wood's saying "'with the hopes weentertain of reward; for if the knight-errant whom the squire serves be not over and above unlucky, he must in a short time find himself recompensed, at least, with a handsome government of some island or some petty earldom." The pouch of coins pictured in this illustration is symbolic of this desire.
