The caption reads, "There was an Old Person of Berlin, whose form was uncommonly thin; Till he once, by mistake, was mixed in a cake, so they baked that Old Man of Berlin." The image captures the playful and absurd nature of Lear's poetry, which has delighted readers of all ages for generations. The old man's expression of surprise and disbelief as he is enveloped in the cake mixture adds to the humor of the scene.
