"An elderly judge holding a large open book, 'Law . . . Statutes', addresses a juryman, who stands facing him in the jury-box, where the rest of the jury are registering disgust. He says: "Mr Juryman-- you have requested permission to retire for a few moments--I have been looking some time for a precedent, and have at last found by the 25th of William Rufus, Chap 531, that a Juryman on any urgent occasion may retire backwards for the space of ten minutes only--therefore you may withdraw." The juryman answers that it is no longer necessary. Between judge and juryman are three grinning barristers."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

In the second image his weeping figure in military uniform is shown on the tiny island of Elba, and is signed "What I am," below and "A snivelling wretch" above. Lastly, on the right, his corpse hangs from a gibbet, his hat fallen to the ground and ass's ears exposed on his head, with caption "What I ought to be" below and "Hung for a fool" above.

"Scene in an English court of law. The judge, Blücher, wearing a legal wig with regimentals, stands up with left arm extended, addressing Napoleon, who crouches in the dock (right), handkerchief in hand, pleading for mercy. Beside the judge are the sovereigns of Europe, two on his right, three on his left, all gazing at the prisoner. In the well of the court aged and grotesque counsel, typical of Rowlandson's lawyers, surround the green-covered table. The jury (left) have stupid, morose, or astonished expressions. The usher, with a long rod, seated on a raised chair, faces the jury on the opposite side of the court. Corpulent constables with staves stand beside and in front of the dock. Freely sketched spectators look down from a crowded gallery above the dock. Almost all eyes are on the prisoner, behind whom stand the Devil, with folded arms, fiercely gloating over his victim. Behind the usher is a high white screen on which Napoleon's offences are inscribed: 'NAPOLEAN BONAPARTE The first and last by the Wrath of Heaven Ex Emperor of the Jacobins & head Runner of Runaways [see British Museum Satires No. 12192], Stands indicted 1ts [sic] for the Murder of Captain Wright in the Temple at Paris 2d for the murder of the Duke Dangulem [d'Enghien] Pichegrew & Georges 3 for the Murder of Palm Hoffer &c & 4th for the murder of the 12 inhabitants of Moscow 5th for inumerable Robberies committed on all Nations in Christendom & elsewhere, 6th for Bigamy & lastly for returning from Transportation, and setting the World in an uproar.' Blücher says fiercely: "You Nap Boneparte being found Guilty of all these Crimes it is fell to my lot to pronounce Sentence of Death on You--You are to be hung by the Neck for one hour till you are Dead, Dead, Dead, & your Body to be chained to a Mill Stone & sunk in the Sea at Torbay." Napoleon says: "Oh cruel Blucher, Oh! cruel Wellington it is you that have brought me to this End. Oh Magnanimous Emperors Kings & Princes intercede for me and spare my life; and give me time to attone for all my Sins, My Son Napoleon the Second will reward you for Mercy shewn me." The sovereigns are poorly characterized. On the extreme left is Alexander, next him and on Blücher's right is the Prince Regent. On Blücher's left is Louis XVIII. Next (?) the King of Prussia, then the Emperor of Austria; next, the Pope with clasped hands, wearing his tiara. On the extreme right is (?) Ferdinand of Spain looking through an eye-glass."--British Museum online catalogue.

"An adaptation of British Museum Satires No. 10039, by Gillray, the place of George III being taken by 'Blucher', the name on a ribbon worn over his uniform. The horse (left) is a restive charger instead of a hunter standing quietly. Blücher leans towards the pack in a fierce attitude, unlike that of the King. The grip of the hand on the fox's neck is as before, and the fox with the profile head of Napoleon registering despair is closely copied. In place of six hounds there are fourteen, six with names on their collars: 'Wellington', 'Swartsenberg', 'Crown Prince' [Bernadotte], 'D. York', 'Kutusoff', 'Row' [with a fourth letter which is perhaps 'L'], Two monarchs wearing crowns gallop up from the right, on a larger scale than the tiny horsemen headed by Pitt in British Museum Satires No. 10039.

He leans back, pushing against the door-post, and the woman's chest, trying to escape, and saying: "Avaunt thee Satan." Two laughing prostitutes lean against him (left), pushing their posteriors against his, to prevent his escape; one of them, for better purchase, presses her hands and a foot against the post of the sign-board before the door.

"A skeleton, Death (left), seated on a cannon, his elbows on his knees, faces Napoleon, not caricatured, in a similar attitude on a drum. The 'two Kings' gaze fixedly at each other, Death menacing, Napoleon as if trying to read a terrifying riddle. Death's left foot rests on a cannon-ball, the right on the broken shaft of an eagle. Behind is a symbolical representation of the battle. The Allies advance from the left in regular formation with bayonets levelled at fleeing French soldiers. Four flags, with the eagles of Russia, Prussia, and Austria, and the Swedish cross, are held up by standard-bearers in the third rank: they recede in perspective from left to right. On the left wing are two hussars, riding down the fugitives. The main French army is streaming in wild confusion up and over a hill, diminishing in perspective. Other soldiers, pursued by hussars, flee down a hill behind Napoleon (right). Bodies of Frenchmen lie on the ground."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

"An altered version (like British Museum Satires No. 12205) of British Museum Satires No. 11057, from the original plate. ... The shield, sinister supporter, crest and motto are the same, but the dexter supporter is altered, apparently by Rowlandson, from 'The French Devil' (Talleyrand, now a supporter of Louis XVIII) to Death, a skeleton holding up an hour-glass. This has necessitated the re-drawing of the Gallic cock at his feet, but it pecks at a crucifix as before. The (printed) text is as before (allusions to Jaffa, d'Enghien, &c.) except for the addition to the title and the descriptions of the supporters: '. . . The Gallic Cock, vainly pecking the crucifix, is symbolic of the Corsican's impiety.' The description of 'The Corsican Devil' is altered to 'Satan, wearing an Iron Crown,... cutting down the Cap of Liberty, and accompanied by the Serpent and Hyaena, the attributes of the Corsican Emperor's wily and sanguinary reign'. The inscriptions (now obsolete) hanging from the mouth of the hyena are altered to: 'Cambaceres', 'Davoust', 'Augereau', 'Sebastiani', 'Vandamme', 'Savory'."--British Museum online catalogue.

'verliehrt auf der Heimreise von der Leipziger Messe alles' (reproduced Broadley, ii. 117). Napoleon runs in profile to the left, holding in both hands a pole like that of a running footman, but topped by the head of the sceptre of Charlemagne (an emblem of the Empire) inscribed 'Carolus Magnus'. His head and uniform evidently derive from Dähling's engraving of Napoleon in the uniform of the Colonel of the Chasseurs of the Guard (reproduced, Dayot, 'Napoléon', p. 205), on which British Museum Satires No. 12177 is based, but on his back is the hairy knapsack of a private (as in British Museum Satires No. 12308). Its contents fly out as he runs. On the ground are two prints of French soldiers at attention, 'Alte Garde' and 'Junge Garde'; maps fall to the ground: 'Poland', 'Rhein Bund', 'Hanstat [sic] Departement', 'Sewitszerla[nd]' [sic], 'Holland', 'Italy', which has hardly left the knapsack; two rolled maps are about to fall: 'Brabant' and 'Bheisufer' [i.e. Rheinufer or Bouches du Rhin]. He runs diagonally towards a broad river, the Rhine; on the farther side are the buildings of 'Maynz', reflected in the water. Just before him runs a hare. The original, including inscriptions, is closely followed, but the hare (cf.
