The political cartoon for the year 1775 [graphic].

Two horses labelled Obstinacy and Pride driven by Mansfield head for an abyss pulling a chaise occupied by a sleeping George III who holds a paper stating "I glory in the name of Englishman." Bute stands behind as footman holding papers entitled places, pensions, reversions. A wheel rolls over Magna Carta and the horses trample the Constitution as mitred clergymen joined by North hold out their hands for favors. Behind the chaise Pitt the elder and Lord Camden reach out as if to protest, while in the foreground a minister offers a bag of money to a crowd of men and women. In the background America is depicted as a city in flames while a demon flies above carrying a sack labelled "National Credit." Accompanying text connected the image with corruption in the boroughs of Hindon and Shaftesbury. cf. British Museum catalogue
