Death and the Ploughman's Wife is a ballad written and illustrated by the Victorian painter and engraver William Strang. It tells the strange story of a mother who tricks Death into sparing her child's life.

*the other is The Earth Fiend, featuring a less happy outcome to its tale, and it is also published by the Flowerdew Press.
