Full-page illustration for Pictures and Stories from Uncle Tom's Cabin, (Boston: Jewett and Company, 1853). Topsy at the Looking-Glass. Topsy, Ophelia. Clifton Waller Barrett Collection, University of Virginia.

Mark where she stands! the shawl of gorgeous red
Wound like a Turk's great turban round her head,
A finer shawl for trailing on the floor,
Just shows her bare black elbows, and no more.
