From the zebra's neck hangs a large jewel inscribed 'Bulse'. He says, "I have thrown off the Mask. I can blind the people no longer and must now carry every thing by my bought Majority." The zebra (the Queen) is led by Dundas (left) [Identified by Miss Banks as Thurlow: the resemblance to either is inconclusive, though pointing to Thurlow, but the inscription indicates Dundas.] and urged on by Richmond (right), who prods it with a goad. It says, "What are Childrens rights to Ambition - I will rule in spite of them if I can conceal things at Q." [Kew.] In front of Dundas (left) is a signpost: "To Tower Hill by B------m [Buckingham] house". Dundas turns his head to shout at Pitt: "So many Scotchmen have left their heads behind in this d------d tower for treason I begin to tremble as much as thief in the rear for my own." Richmond, noted for his unfailing support of Pitt, says, "Skulking in the rear out of sight suits best my character." Behind him (right) is a cannon."--British Museum online catalogue

Lord Hood's pious Committee will swear to it - Oh! well may ye groan, my dear Sisters of the Elect! I should not wonder if this Rampant Candidate was to enter this sanctified place this moment and ravish every one of ye!" Beneath the pulpit sits the clerk who displays to the congregation an open book, pointing to the words 'Blessed be they that hearken unto me'. In the pulpit behind Wesley are Hood, listening devoutly with his hands held out as if in surprised assent, and a sailor of dissolute appearance who tipsily flourishes a bludgeon with a satisfied grin. A large flag with a St. Andrew's cross leans against the pulpit and forms a background for Hood and Wesley."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "The Prince and Britannia stand on each side of the Coronation Chair as in BMSat 7386. Its Gothic carvings are altered to satyrs' heads. On the back of the Chair is a small money-bag inscribed Virtue. The Prince and Britannia stand as before, but the foot which she places on the step inscribed 'The Voice of the People' is a cloven hoof. The next step, 'Publick Safety', is badly cracked; the other steps are blank. No words come from Britannia's mouth; the Prince says, "I woud do the best to please my People". Liberty and Justice are transformed into Sheridan and Fox. Sheridan, wearing ragged clothes, holds the cap of 'Liberty' on a broom; he puts one hand on the Prince's shoulder while he steals a handkerchief from his coat-pocket. Fox, in place of Justice's sword, holds a bludgeon in the head of which is an eye which drips blood (in the coloured version); he holds up an evenly-balanced pair of scales, formed of two dice-boxes. His eye-bandage is pushed up on his forehead and he says, "I have the Voice of the People in my Eye". 'Commerce' is transformed from a comely young woman into a drunken hag who holds up a glass of gin. The Mayor says, "We have not been taxed this twelvemonth". Pitt, instead of being the colleague of the Furies, attacks them: in his left hand he holds up a large conical extinguisher with which he is about to put out the torch of 'Rebellion'. He says, "I could soon extinguish these Puppet Shew Vapours if properly supported". The Fury holds up two torches, one of 'Rebellion', the other 'Puppet Shew'. He puts his left foot on the prostrate head of 'Envy', who is holding up a fire-brand. The third fury (Falsehood) has disappeared. The British Lion looks from behind Britannia's shield snarling ferociously in defence of Pitt."--British Museum online catalogue

- "Pitt as the modern Egbert (king of the West Saxons, d. 839) is rowed by four kings, and tows behind him a small boat in which the Prince of Wales is seated, his wrists and ankles chained. Pitt, who steers, is seated high in the stern of the 'Treasury Barge', he wears a combined coronet and mitre, and says to his four oarsmen, 'Pull together Boys'. They are Thurlow (stroke), Buckingham, Dundas, and Richmond (bow). All wear crowns on their heads and badges like those of watermen on their sleeves. Thurlow, stripped to the waist, his badge a rose, says, "Damme! I've got precedence of the Young Lion"; he rows with the Chancellor's mace. Buckingham (Lord Lieutenant of Ireland), an Irish harp on his coat-sleeve, rows with a shillelagh, saying, "I'll answer for the Shelalagh without Authority". Dundas, wearing a thistle badge, rows with a long spoon, saying, "He shall remember old Nemo impune". Richmond, wearing a fleur-de-lis badge (he was due d'Aubigny), rows with a cannon (emblem of the ordnance, cf. BMSat 6921, &c), saying, "We'll shew him Gallic Faith." They row on one side of the boat only. A large flag in the stern of Pitt's boat has his crest (reversed), a stork grasping an anchor, with the motto: 'Devil take the Right P.W. [Prince William]'. The Prince wears a coronet with three feathers; he says, "I feel not for myself but for my country". His boat flies a flag with Pitt's crest above a flag with the royal arms. In the background is the river bank with trees, a church (the House of Commons) flying a (blank) flag (right), and (left) the dome of St. Paul's."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A strip design in imitation of British Museum Satires No. 7230. The names of the characters are etched beneath them, the words spoken above their heads. 'R------e' (Rose) rushes forward, in alarm, exclaiming "The People refuse to address to T--l--w" (Thurlow) who answers "Bl-st their Eyes" (cf. British Museum Satires No. 7320). 'P-tt' leans anxiously towards Thurlow, saying, "then I am done over. S-----y" (Sydney), his back to Pitt, addresses 'D------s', saying, "it is all dickey with me". Dundas, stamping with rage, answers, "I'll gang to my awn country and sell Butter & Brimstone. R------d" (Richmond), standing beside a cannon (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6921, &c), puts his finger to his nose, saying, "I begin to smell Powder". He speaks to 'G------n' (Grafton) who answers, "I begin to stink damnably. C--t--m" (Chatham), a small man-of-war under each arm, leans in profile to the right, saying, "I thought myself snug" (he succeeded Howe as First Lord in Sept. 1788, cf. British Museum Satires No. 7480). 'C--m--n' (Camden) stands full-face, his hands in his old-fashioned coat-pockets, saying, "I should have known better". 'B------k W-----n' (Brook Watson), flourishing his wooden leg, says to Camden, "I cannot Brook this I'll hop off. G--n--e" (Grenville) holds up his Speaker's wig, saying, "I shall lose my new Wig" (he was elected Speaker on 5 Jan.). 'W-----es' (Wilkes), holding his chin reflectively and squinting violently, says, "I can look either way". 'C--m--n' (Carmarthen) holds up both arms, saying, "Eve been in Anguish all night.."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "Fox rises from a close-stool; Sheridan (left) is about to apply a syringe, inscribed 'R------ts [Regent's] Clyster', to his rectum. Burke (right), wearing a Jesuit's biretta (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6026), gropes in the close-stool, holding in his left hand its lid, inscribed 'Not searching from Precedents but Consequences' (a characteristic dictum); he says, "To Ordure - Ordure" (Burke was often called to order for his speeches on the Regency, cf. British Museum Satires No. 7499, &c). Fox says, "Exegi Monumentum cere perennias, or the finishing Stroke" (perhaps an allusion to the revolution Pillar, see British Museum Satires No. 7396). In his hand is a paper inscribed 'Magna Charta Non Posteris sed Posterioribus'; his posterior is inscribed 'Patriotic Bum' and 'Vox Populi'. He stands on a paper inscribed 'Resolutions of P------l------t.' Sheridan is 'Principal Promoter of loose Principles'; under his right foot is an open book: 'Congreve Plays School for Scandal', probably implying plagiarism by Sheridan (cf. Moore, 'Life of Sheridan', p. 180, where resemblances between 'The School for Scandal' and 'The Double Dealer' are noted). The background is a library wall: a book-case containing folio volumes in some disorder is flanked by scowling busts of 'Wat Tyler' and 'Jack Kade'. The books are inscribed: 'The Laws of Pharaoh' (Faro, cf. British Museum Satires No. 5972), 'Political Prints', 'Life of Oliver Cromwell' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6380, &c), 'Cataline' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6784), 'Memoirs of Sam House'."--British Museum online catalogue

- "A game of marbles (taw, cf. BMSat 7393) for the crown is in progress; the Prince of Wales is dressed as a toddling child in petticoats but is larger in scale than the other figures; he leans towards Fox, Sheridan, and Burke (who are aiming at the crown) but is restrained by Pitt (right) who holds him in leading-strings, saying, "Hold, Not so fast Georgy". The Prince wears one of the cushioned caps ('puddings') then used to protect children's heads; in it are three feathers. The crown is at his feet, surrounded by a ring of marbles. Fox and Sheridan kneel side by side; Fox is about to play, saying, "My Game for a Crown". Sheridan, holding his marble, says, "Knuckle down and dont funck, [To funk = to advance the hand unfairly in playing marbles. Partridge, 'Dict. of Slang', 1937.] Charley". Burke stands behind them, leaning eagerly forward, saying, "My turn next Sherry". He wears a Jesuit's biretta (cf. BMSat 6026). Pitt, 'chapeau-bras', wears court dress. Behind the Prince is a circular stand on wheels for supporting a toddling child."--British museum online catalogue
