Abstract:
"Ten Odd Fellows with grotesque faces watch a sailor who stands, arms akimbo, wary and pugnacious. The chairman sits in a raised armchair, smoking and drinking, behind a small table on which are two lighted candles. On the back of his chair are three small but realistic heads, seeming to watch the proceedings. A man in a dressing-gown, introduces the sailor, doffing a night-cap: "Most worthy Chairman Mr Benjamin Block of Wapping Old Stairs - attends to be made a Member of the Ancient and honorable Society." The sailor, who wears round hat, short blue jacket, a petticoat (as in earlier prints), and buckled shoes, says: "Avast my Hearties, - before I've proceeded any further on the voyage let me know what course you are steering - if you mean to frighten a British sailor with your goggle eyes, and queer faces you are d------dly mistaken - besides it appears to me that you have got masks on which is like fighting under false colours, and that wont do for an English Jack Tar!"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

A group of men explore a cave Peak Cavern (in the heart of the Derbyshire Dales), some with candles in their hats, most with candles in the hands. One holds a quizzing glass to his eye as he looks up at the ceiling of the cave. They stand on the edge of an underground lake. One man lays on his back in a small rowboat on the lake and gazes at the ceiling above; a dog sits at his feet
