Judge not a man by his clothing.
[Glasgow] : Poet's Box, 80 London Street, Glasgow,
[1870]
In one column.
'Price one penny'.
'Copies of this very popular song can always be had in the Poet's Box, 80 London Street, Glasgow'.
First lines read: Judge not a man by the cost of his clothing, / Unheeding the life-path he may pursue; / Or oft you'll admire a heart that needs loathing, / And fail to give honour where honour is due. / The palm may be hard, and fingers stiff jointed, / The coat may be tatter'd, the cheek worn with tears, / But greater than kings are labour's anointed, / And you can't judge a man by the coat that he wears.
Dated at the foot of the sheet - 'Saturday, July 2, 1870'.
