Title: Le tems donnant les cendres à la noblesse et au clergé
Date Created/Published: Paris : 1790 le jour des Cendres 2e année de l'ere de la liberté.
Summary: Print shows Father Time flying past an altar on which the privileges of the nobility and the clergy are being burned; he is annointing the forehead of one priest with the ashes of the consummed documents as another priest tries to pull him back, others, including a noble and a bishop, recoil in horror. Revolutionaries enter on the left. Includes a Latin verse 'Misericordiæ domini! quia non sumus consumpti' from Lamentations 3:22, Misericordiæ domini! quia non sumus consumpti quia non defecerunt miserationed eius : It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed because his compassions fail not.
