A satirical handbill on the theatre by Rowland Hill.
The bracketed numbers refer to a table at the foot of the sheet and refer to different passages in the Bible.
'[The following is the copy of a bill written by the late Rev. Rowland Hill, which was stuck up at Richmond on Saturday, 4th of June 1774, close to the play bill for that day. The design of which was to divert the minds of the gay and dissipated from the vain amusements of the theatre, and to turn their attention to the awful circumstances which shall usher in and succeed "The great and terrible day of the Lord."]'.
