    • 1881 December 3, Sydney Punch, page 8, column 2:
      The evil-smelling larrikin, beer-imbued —
      The evil-loving brute-man homeward goes,
      He kicks his dirty children with his boot,
      Cursing their hunger, — and his poor worn wife
      With cold flat-irons and handled broom awaits
      His coming, to revile his drinking hard.
