The boy brings out a card saying "Pity the blind". First a man comes by and drops a coin in the hat. He is followed by two finely dressed women who also drops coins into the hat. But one of the women as she leaves pauses and raises her skirt to adjust her stockings. The 'blind' man lowers his dark glasses and gapes at her legs.
