- Abstract
-
"Gloomy and agitated Ministers stand round Eldon who sits glumly on a sack (the Green Bag as in British Museum Satires No. 13954), from which issues a puff of smoke. Wellington and Liverpool are conspicuous, with Sidmouth (with his clyster-pipe) and Castlereagh; two others are poorly characterized. Canning runs off in the background (right), see British Museum Satires No. 13737, &c. In the middle distance the King and a bishop distractedly embrace. Behind is the sea, with (?) the royal yacht departing. (The Queen has triumphed.) P. 24: Y, for the youths of the Archer's delight, Dumb with astonishment--pale with affright! ..."--British Museum online catalogue
