"In a small space between the House Commons (left) and a rustic alehouse (right) Lord Temple and Lord Camelford play battledore and shuttlecock with the head (the features as in BMSat 9200) of Horne Tooke. In this are stuck feathers, five inscribed respectively: 'Deceit, Vanity, Jacobinism, New Morality [cf. BMSat 9240], Envy'. From the neck hang (torn) clerical bands. Camelford in back view, 'profil perdu', wears a rakish hat with curved brim (as in BMSat 9699), a naval officer's coat with sailor's striped trousers, and buckled shoes; from his coat pocket issues a paper: 'Effusion of Loyalty'. He says: "There's a Stroke for you, Messmate! and, if you kick him back, I'll return him again, dam'me! - if I should be sent on a cruise to Moorfields [i.e. Bedlam], for it! - go it, Coz:" Temple, a stout country gentleman, scarcely caricatured, wearing a stiff round hat, prepares to return the stroke vigorously, left fist clenched; he says: "Send him back? - yes, I'll send him back Twenty Thousand times, before such a high flying Jacobin-Shuttlecock shall pearch [sic] it here, in his Clerical band." Both play vigorously with legs astride. Through the wide doorway behind him, inscribed 'St Steevens', is seen the Opposition side of the House of Commons densely packed, the Speaker just visible in his chair, the Clerk staring apprehensively. All the (tiny) members wave red caps to cheer their champion, shouting "The Church for Ever, [?] dem[me]". Sheridan and Fox only are characterized. The alehouse is a primitive thatched building with the chequers sign. On it are two placards: 'The Old Sarum Electors', five pigs in a sty eating from a trough. Below: 'The House of Call for Independent Members'. Against the building are a rustic table and bench. On the ground by Camelford is a 'List of Candidates for Old Sarum, J. H. Tooke, Black Dick [it was reported, though denied by Camelford, that he had declared his intention of returning his black servant if Tooke's election should be annulled], Thelwall' [see vol. vii]. In the background between the buildings is seen a small ruinous village, representing Old Sarum, with a bare, decayed tree."--British Museum online catalogue.

"Lord Hawkesbury as a drummer boy, very thin and weedy, marches (left to right) in front of John Bull with awkward and shambling aggressiveness; he steps on to a rotten plank inscribed 'Heart of Oak' which connects the shores of England and France. His drum-sticks are a rolled document, 'Preliminaries', and an olive branch. Across his dishevelled bearskin is a ribbon: 'Peace'; from it hangs the end of a fool's cap. From his coat-pocket issues a paper: 'Instructions from Park Place' [Pitt's London address]; [So given in the Royal Kalendar (alphabetical list of the House of Commons). Broadley notes that Malmesbury lived at Park Place, Henley (this was his third country house). The crest on the drum, as well as political probability, supports the Pitt interpretation.] his drum is slung from his neck by a tricolour ribbon, and has on its side the Pitt crest, a stork holding an anchor. His expression is deprecatingly wary; and he looks sideways at John Bull, who is accompanied by a swarm of little English 'Jacobins'. He says: "Allons, Enfans de la Patrie! - now's your time Johnny! - my dear Boys! - did not I promise long ago, to take my Friends by the hand, & lead them on to March to the Gates of Paris? - Allons! vive la Liberta!!" In the narrow Channel which he is about to cross float Britannia's discarded shield, a large money-bag of '£400 Million', and papers inscribed: 'Malta', 'West India Islands', 'Cape of Good Hope', 'Map of Egypt', 'Restoration of French Monarchy', 'List of Soldiers & Sailors Killed'. John Bull (left), a simple yokel, very fat and good-natured, marches after Hawkesbury in high glee waving his hat; over his civilian dress is a sword-belt from which a sword falls to the ground, hilt downwards. He shouts: "Rule Britannia! - \ Britannia Rules the Waves!!! \ Caira! - Caira!" He is being urged forward by a crowd of little figures, members of the Opposition, who wave or wear their bonnets rouges. They vary in scale: the most prominent is Fox who marches along blowing a trumpet; Norfolk drags John forward, clutching his coat with both hands; behind Norfolk Tierney's head appears. Behind Fox is Sheridan pushing John from behind; on Sheridan's right is General Walpole; on his left, Burdett. Behind him on the extreme left is Moira, with a conspicuous whisker. Other persons are represented by arms waving caps. In front and under John's feet are three tiny naked mannikins: Nicholls holdup his eyeglass, his legs attached to his shoulders to show that he is 'nobody', cf. BMSat 5570; the paunchy Derby, blowing a French horn, and, smallest of all, M. A. Taylor blowing a trumpet. Across the water, in France, and on the extreme right, is a ramshackle building, perhaps a ruined church, with a large placard: 'Vive la Liberta'. Before it is planted a Tree of Liberty; a garlanded pole supporting an enormous bonnet rouge, round which tiny simian figures dance, holding hands. They wear bonnets rouges and have tails."--British Museum online catalogue.

"Turks and Bedouins besiege the base of a tall Corinthian column, on which is a group of terrified French savants. They have lit a fire at the base of the column whose smoke ascends in an expanding cloud; other Arabs advance with sheaves of reeds to feed the flames. On the small platform eight Frenchmen are crowded together; one, with wings attached to his shoulders and arms, steps into the void, stretching out his arms to a balloon, already wrecked by musket-fire. Their commander (probably Bonaparte), who wears a large plumed cocked hat and an order, shouts to the besiegers, holding up a placard 'Vive Mahomet Qui protegoit les Sciences'. A man kneeling beside him clasps him in terror; from his pocket issues a paper: 'Projet pour Bruler la Mecque'. A stout man (left) is about to hurl down a (? celestial) globe and a scientific instrument; another prepares to fling a large book: 'Le Ciel Revolutionné ou les Constellations Sans-culottisés'. A lean fanatic is about to commit suicide: he holds up a bottle labelled 'Tone', and clasps another labelled 'Louvet Opium'; in his belt are weapons inscribed 'Romme' and 'Roland' (all of whom but (?) Louvet killed themselves). A terrified face bites a book inscribed 'Savary'. A thin scholar (right) wearing a skull-cap is perhaps Monge. A ninth man falls from the summit (left); from his pocket issues a paper: 'Projet pour rendre les Hommes Immortels'. A stork (left) flies upwards from the column. Two scientific instruments (one electric) and six books fall from the column: 'Ebauche d'un Systeme de Législation pour une Colonie d Anthropophages' [cf. BMSat 9356]; 'Traité sur la Guillotine par un Théophilanthrope'; 'Sur le Reedification de la Tour de Babel'; 'Encyclopédie Edit: de Paris Vol: LX.'; 'Tableau de Logarithms'. The lowest, 'Projet de Fraternisation avec les Bedouins', hits a Bedouin and strikes him to the ground. On the ground is 'Le Contrat Social'. The besiegers fire at the Frenchmen or hold up their spears waiting for them to fall. One fires at an exploding balloon (right), 'La Diligence d'Abissynie' (cf. BMSat 9403), from which the (tricolour) boat has already fallen. One of the occupants falls head first towards the spears below; another descends by a parachute which has been traversed by the shot at the balloon; he is about to be transfixed by an arrow. Falling books are 'Les Ruines par le Cit: Volney'; 'Traité sur la Velocité des Corps Descendans'; and 'Theorie de l'Aerostation'. In the foreground right two fat Turks sit impassively back to back on a camel which gazes upwards; they are confident and incurious; one smokes reflectively. Arabs and Africans are in violent motion, some firing, others with spears. Behind (left) men gallop up on asses. A man (left) looks up through the wrong end of a telescope. In the background are pyramids. ..."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A view of the House of Commons showing only the Ministerial benches immediately beside and behind the Speaker's Chair, and, on the extreme right, the Speaker and the Clerk with part of the Table. Addington, scarcely caricatured, but wearing gloves, is the principal figure. He stands in profile to the right, right hand extended; in his left is the 'Treaty of Peace with ye Democratick ['Democratic' was then used as an equivalent of Jacobin, cf. BMSat 8310.] Powers'; from his pocket issues a paper: 'List of the new Administration'. On the front bench (left) next Addington's seat, marked by his hat, sits Hawkesbury, nervous and deprecating, legs crossed, crouching forward, holding his chin. Next him is a very fat man with gouty legs, his head concealed behind Addington, identified as Dickinson, see BMSat 9854. Just behind are Nicholls, clutching his cane, and Tierney (not caricatured), both gazing intently at Addington's back. Behind Nicholls is Wilberforce, much caricatured. A fat, youngish man, standing full face (right), resembles Lord Temple. Of the other heads gazing fixedly at Addington only Tyrwhitt Jones (see BMSat 9401 and Index) can be identified: according to 'London und Paris', Jekyll and Whitbread are there. The Speaker, Abbot, is dwarfishly too small for the Chair; in front of him sits the Clerk, with a melancholy expression, holding a pen, his hands folded."--British Museum online catalogue.

"The Devil, seated with his back to a dinner-table made of a butcher's block, roasts Napoleon on a pitchfork in the flames of Hell; excrement falls into a dish below. Attendant demons act as cooks. The Devil is obese and hairy with barbed tail, webbed wings, and carbuncled nose emitting flames. He wears a bonnet rouge in the form of a fool's cap, with tricolour cockade and scarf. The back of his ornate chair is a guillotine; beneath it is a pile of skulls over which is a tricolour ribbon inscribed 'Robespiere Marat'. A tricolour table-cloth only partly hides the dripping butcher's block. On it are a carving-knife, the blade inscribed 'Taleyrand', and fork; a chalice inscribed 'Atheism' and 'Cup of French Faith'; a salt-cellar, the salt spilled, inscribed 'Sal Infernal'. Beside it stands an ornate wine-cooler inscribed 'Favourite French Wines of the Consular Vintage'; bottles are labelled 'Sang des Suisse[s]', 'Sang des Anglais', 'Sang des Holland[ais]'. Near it lies a ballad: 'Invasion of Great Britain a Catch to be performed after Supper with a full Chorus of his Highness's Band'. Two demon attendants on the extreme right., partly concealed by the r. margin, enter with a steaming tureen of 'Crocodile Soup' [see BMSat 11057] and a sauce-boat of 'Mahomedan Gravy.' A little wingless female demon sits on a sack of 'Fuel for Everlasting Flames', plying bellows. Papers pour from the sack and others are already burning: 'Poisoning 580 wounded French soldiers' [see BMSat 10063], 'Massacre of 3800 Turks at Jaffa' [see BMSat 10062], 'Murdering 1500 Women at Toulon' [see BMSat 10095, &c.], 'Assassination of captive Swiss', 'Destruction of St Domingo' [cf.

There are three other demon cooks, winged, wearing bonnets rouges and aprons: each holds his nose. One flying above Bonaparte bastes him with a ladle-full of Brimstone. The others (l.) hold ready for the fire a pan of vipers and three skewered frogs. Across a vault up which the flames ascend is a beam inscribed 'L'Armée D'Angletarre' [sic] from which are suspended by the neck simian creatures wearing French military coats. Winged monsters dart towards Napoleon. Below the title, in two columns, verses are etched, attributed ('Illustrative Description', 1830) to Paul Sandby. ...

"Bonaparte (right) sits at a small table writing with fierce decision; the second and third consuls sit facing him, biting their pens in pompous indecision, their papers are blank. The latter wear the flamboyant dress of the Directors (see BMSat 9199), Cambacéiès (left) has thick gouty legs. Bonaparte wears similar dress, but with a more fantastic cocked hat, in which, besides enormous feathers, is a large sheaf of olive-branches tied with tricolour (symbol of his overture to George III, see BMSat 9512); he wears jack-boots and a large sabre inscribed 'Liberté'. He writes the 'Nouvelle \ Constitution \ Grand Consul Buonaparte \ Tout en Tout Buonaparte \ Bu . . .' Beside him are papers docketed: 'Constitution pour l'Avenir: Buonaparte Grande Monarque' and 'Confiscations'. On the ground are torn papers: 'Vielles Constitutions'; 'Droit [de] l'Homme'; his foot rests on 'Constitution of 1793'. Behind, Sieyès, a lean grotesque savant, holds apart with both hands, with a violence that suggests impotence, a curtain which stretches across the design, revealing papers in pigeon-holes inscribed: 'Constitution de Parade', 'Constitution du Sang', 'Constitution de Foutre', 'Constitution de Despotism', 'Constitution de Vol[eur?]'. Above them is a model of a guillotine. Above the curtain is a festoon of tricolour, inscribed 'Vive le Constitution Une et Invisible', centred by crossed blunderbusses. The tablecloth is looped up to show a group of tiny fire-lit demons forging fetters. Beneath the design: 'The above are true Likenesses of Cambaceres, - Le-Brun - the Abbé Seiyes, and Buonaparte, drawn at Paris Novr 1799'.

"A drunken debauch in the new Union Club, see BMSat 9698. A long table, the cloth removed, one end cut off by the left margin, stretches almost across the design, slanting back slightly from the left, where it is in the foreground, and where Fox, grossly corpulent, sits in an armchair asleep, his feet on the table, a pipe in one hand. Nearly opposite his feet is the chair of state, on the table; on the empty seat is the Prince's cocked hat with triple plume, his motto 'Ich Di[en]' within the crown. The chair is backed by an elaborate architectural canopy with ornate pilasters on which swags of fruit and flowers are carved in relief: (left) grapes and lemons (materials for punch), and (right) roses and shamrocks. Above the seat are figures of Britannia and Erin, kissing, standing on a curved base inscribed 'The Union'. On the back of the chair are two clasped hands, elaborately irradiated. The chair is surrounded by broken wine-bottles; its former occupant, the Prince, lies on his back under the table, one arm flung over Lord Stanhope, who lies unconscious, clasping a bottle. On the Prince's stomach rest two feet in shoes with spiked, upcurved toes. In the foreground, opposite the Prince, Norfolk lies with his head against the seat of his overturned chair, looking very ill. All who are not incapacitated or fighting are toasting the Union (except Lansdowne and Parr, see below). On the table sits Moira, dressed as in BMSat 9386, a glass of wine held high above his head, his right leg thrust forward, while he stretches back to take the hand of Lord Clermont, [This is clear from the resemblance to BMSat 9575, and is supported by the shamrock which he and the other Irishmen wear. It is confirmed by 'London und Paris', vii. 80, where it is said that he and Moira were once bitter enemies. He is identified by Grego as General Manners, see BMSat 9288.] seated next Sheridan on the farther side of the table. Facing Clermont and in back view, Camelford sits erect, wearing a Jean de Bry coat (see BMSat 9425) and small round hat, with cropped hair. [The identification (that of Grego) is confirmed by BMSat 9716, Wright and Evans give Burdett, E. Hawkins 'Mr Manners'.] Beside him (right) two waiters bring in a full tub of Whiskey Punch, which they spill; one treads on the face of the prostrate Nicholls. Near the end of the table (right) sits Derby, his large head and crumpled features grotesquely caricatured. In the foreground on the extreme right Montagu Mathew (as in BMSat 9560) and Skeffington (as in BMSat 9557) advance dancing arm-in-arm, with tipsy grace, the former with a bottle in each hand; one reversed, the other, held above his head, splashes its contents over his partner's uplifted glass. (The pair, according to 'London und Paris', vii, 1801, p. 76, were known as inseparables in fashionable London resorts, cf. BMSat 9755.) ..."--British Museum online catalogue.
