The horns are numbered “1”, a reference to a table below to Hogarth's prints "Four times the day". A chimney sweep behind Hogarth holds up his print “H- [of] Prussia” as he steals from his satchel the 'March to Finchley'.  Another chimney sweep -- numbered “2” referencing the table below that identifies him as "a painter"--rides a sow and carries a palette as a shield emblazoned with a “line of beauty”. Exemplifying the "lines of beauty".  Hogarth's dog bits the woman's drapery;  a greyhound steals from a pail hanging from the yoke of a milkmaid; a cripple with his crutch, wooden leg, and natural leg.
