"Heading to an engraved song of four verses. The Devil, with hooves and bat's wings, flies through the air carrying a tailor who has a roll of cloth under his arm. Beneath them is a landscape (l. to r.): on a hill is a gibbet with a corpse; a man drowns in a river beside a water-mill; the cottage of 'Snip Taylor', with a woman at the door; on a hill in the background a row of weaving-sheds. Below the title: 'A much admir'd Song - Sung by Mr Chas Johnston, & proper to be sung at all Musical Clubs.'"--British Museum online catalogue
