520			_a"Sketches in Verse: respectfully addressed to the Norfolk Yeomenry" by J. Parkerson, Jun. is a poetic collection written during the early 19th century. The book reflects on various themes relevant to the workings and experiences of the agricultural and merchant classes, particularly in Norfolk. The verses touch on societal issues including the plight of farmers, the trials of convicted individuals, and observations on rural life, with a notable focus on the implications of foreign grain imports on local agriculture. The collection features a number of sketches that narrate the lives and struggles of its subjects through vivid imagery and heartfelt emotion. For instance, it explores the heart-wrenching farewell of a man sentenced to transportation, who laments his separation from family and the larger socio-economic conditions affecting his life choices. Other pieces illustrate the complexities of the grain market, the contributions of prominent figures, and the idyllic yet challenging realities faced by rural communities. Overall, Parkerson's work serves as both a social commentary and a tribute to the resilience of the Norfolk yeomen and their enduring spirit amidst hardship.
