A gentleman who wears fool's cap, carries a bauble in one hand and a bell (which he rings) in the other. He is accompanied by another gentleman who carries a halbred as they driving four geese and four turkeys before them on the road "To London" as the sign-post states. The former gentleman says, "This vastly pretty." His companion responds, " This is fine sport, only I am very cold."
