"Every man has his Jack-o'lantern ; — in dark night, in broad noon day — in the lonely wild, or in the populous city — each has his Jacko'lantern."

A ghoul, holding a lantern to mislead weary travelers, is depicted in the dark of night hiding among a thick stand of rushes on a riverbank . "To this man Jack comes in the likeness of a bottle of old port, seducing him from sobriety, and leaving him in a quagmire ; to that man, he appears in the form of a splendid phaeton and a pair of greys, driving him into bankruptcy, and dropping him into the open jaws of ruin. To one he presents himself in the guise of a cigar, keeping hiin in a constant cloud ; to another he appears in no shape but that of an old black-letter volume, over which he continues to pore long after his wits are gone. Here you see Jack blazing in scarlet, and luring his dazzled follower on by military trappings alone to the pursuit of glory ; and there Jack jumps about in the brilliant motley of harlequin, tempting a grave and leaden-heeled victim to dance away his nights and days. Jack-o'lantern is to some people, a mouldy hoarded guinea — and these he leads into the miser's slough of despond; with others, when he pays them a visit, he rolls himself up into the form of a dice-box — and then he makes beggars of them. ..." an excerpt from George Cruikshank's Omnibus. Illustrated with one hundred engravings on steel and wood.
