Abstract:
"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

"Eight scenes arranged in two rows. An elderly man riding Pegasus pursues Fame, who beckons to him; he despairs of overtaking her, even "if my Pegasus was as fleet as the wind". Two cronies concur in "hunting the bottle". An old military officer pursues a pretty young woman. Two bailiff's men with bludgeons pursue a debtor. A solitary man has been fruitlessly "hunting after money the whole day". A young and handsome fortune-hunter kneels to an elderly harridan. A hunter after company invites himself to crack a bottle with another man. A fat parson, eyes closed, at a table with punch-bowl, glasses, &c, the second chair being empty, says: "My worthy friend the Vicar and myself have just killed old care and I am very happy Doctor, to welcome you in at the death". Perhaps belongs to a set, see BMSat 8541, &c. c.1800"--British Museum online catalogue
