Jack, hove down with a grog blossom fever / [graphic]

"A sailor with a hideously carbuncled face lies in a hammock wearing a striped shirt and night-cap. Beside him is his sea-chest, the open lid inscribed 'Sea Stock', from which he has taken a bottle of 'Grogg'. He shakes his fist at an old-fashioned doctor, lean and grotesque (left), who stoops towards him proferring a box of 'Pills' and holding a long bottle labelled 'A Sweat'. Under the doctor's arm is a gold-headed cane, and from his coat-pocket project a 'Clyster' [pipe] which is exploding, and a bottle of 'Jollop'; beside him are a 'Pestel' and 'Mortar'. He says: "hold--I must stop Your Grog Jack--it excites those impulces, and concussions of the Thorax, which acorn pany Sternutation by which means you are in a sort of a kind of a Situation--- that Your head must be--shaved--I shall take from you only--20os of Blood-- then swallow this Draught and Box of Pills, and I shall administer to you a Clyster." Jack answers angrily: "Stop my Grog.--Belay there Doctor--Shiver my timbers but your lingo bothers me--You May batter my Hull as long as you like, but I'll be d--'nd if ever You board me with your Glyster pipe." In his chest are bottles inscribed 'Brandy', 'Rum', and 'Gin', a large twist of 'Pig tail' [tobacco], a 'True Love Token', and a miniature (cf. British Museum Satires No. 10894). He is covered with a gaily patterned coverlet inscribed 'P R'. His jacket and breeches are on the deck beside him, and close by (left) are a cannon and cannon-balls."--British Museum online catalogue
