   • 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.
