"The patient lies in a large bed (right), sourly watching four ugly doctors (left) who sit in consultation, their knees close together. Two put old-fashioned gold-headed canes to their mouths. They say respectively: "We must throw in the Bark" [quinine]; "It is all brought on by Drinking"; What you say is very true"; "We must abate the thirst and then cure the fever". The patient says: "Aye aye. I hear you but Ill tell you how to save half the trouble cure the fever, & send me a nice cool tankard of Madeira and Ill abate the thirst myself"."--British Museum online catalogue

"The farmer, looking up, with folded hands, sits full face in an upright arm-chair. He wears a dressing-gown and night-cap, and appears fairly robust. The lawyer stands at his right hand, eagerly bending forward to write 'The last Will and Testament of, . .'; behind him (left) is the elder son, a gaping shock-headed youth in a smock. Behind the right arm of the chair is the doctor, sucking his cane disconsolately. On his left hand are the parson, with a grog-blossom nose, holding an open book, the weeping wife, plainly dressed in cap and apron, with a little girl holding a handkerchief to her face, and a smaller boy, yelling. The farmer says: "I bequeath my House and Lands to my eldest Son Dick- the rest of my property to my Wife and younger Children. I leave Six and eightpence to the Lawyer- all his gallipots and phials to the Doctor and half a years tithes to the Parson- Therefore March off Doctor! Write Lawyer!

"A grotesque old doctor, with carbuncled nose, approaches a lady, bowing low and holding out a clumsy petticoat. He says: "Mrs Jenny said your Ladyship complain'd of being cold about the loins - so I have Just stept in with a warm flannel petticoat." She is seated beside a tea-table, and throws up her arms, flinching back in horror; she says: "I have no loins fellow! do you want to make a monster of me?!!" She wears a high-waisted, short-sleeved dress, under which her legs are defined. Her little dog barks at the doctor. A large urn and a small cup (overturned) and saucer, are the only objects on the table."--British Museum online catalogue

"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

Abstract:
"The representatives of six of the Allies, the most prominent being John Bull, stand on a bluff (left) tugging at a rope by which they pull a row of seven uniform Dutch men-of-war from the opposite coast. The ships are small, their sails are inflated by a favourable wind; they fly Dutch flags, one inscribed 'Texell Fleet'; John Bull, a stout 'cit', pulls side by side with a Spaniard in slashed tunic, ruff, and feathered hat. Behind this pair a Russian wearing a fur hood steadies the rope. A Prussian Death's Head Hussar hauls at the end of the rope, his back to the sea, but looking over his shoulder. Beside him is an Austrian officer, while a Portuguese or Sicilian waves a feathered cap. On the extreme right, behind the Dutch fleet, are two little figures making frantic gestures: Napoleon waving his sword exclaims: "Oh Brother Joe--I'm all Fire, My Passion eats me up Such unlooked for Storms of ills fall on me It beats down all my cunning, I cannot bear it My ears are fill'd with Noise my Eyes grow dim And feeble shakings seize every Limb." Joseph stands behind, his crown at his feet, saying: "Oh Brother Nap Brother Nap we shant be left with half a Crown apiece [see British Museum Satires No. 12068]." The ships are filled with Dutch sailors; others are on the shore (right) pushing at the stern of the nearest ship in order to launch her. This partly obscures the others, which are in line, diminishing in perspective. A ship's boat rows towards the horizon. A large sun (right), irradiated and inscribed 'Sunset of Tyranny', sinks into the sea. Between it and the coast (left) is a row of five men-of-war at anchor, flying the flags of the Allies, their poops in a line. The ship on the right, nearest Holland, flies a Russian flag, the next, with the highest masts, flies British flags. In the foreground (left), lying at the base of the bluff on which the Allies stand, are two casks inscribed 'Real Hollands Best Double Proof' and 'Genuine Spirit Neat as Imported'."--British Museum online catalogue
