The Devil’s Rafter. A Legend of Appleby

Figure descriptions
The devil falls from the ceiling of a church. Below him, a crowd of men, women, and children sit in the church pews. At least two of the adults appear to be sleeping; the others pray or converse with one another. A boy stands behind a sleeping man and pulls on his wig. The devil is dark and heavily shaded, while the rest of the illustration is light and bright. There is a stained-glass window in the background with the faint outline of angels. Full-page illustration contained within a single-ruled border.
