Satire on rural youth echoing boccaccio's cymon and iphigenia: a young horseman admires a sleeping haymaker, while his horse grazes from a pile of the hay she has cut; her dog snarls at him; behind is a cottage with a sign reading, "lodgings for travellers"; in the distance is a windmill. 15 october 1776
