Abstract:
Two asses on a bare patch of ground, with the first line of Shakespeare's 'Macbeth' below. The play begins with three witches in a storm deciding when to meet next ('When the hurlyburly's done, / When the battle's lost and won'). That there are only two asses in this parody presumably means that the dedicatee of the print, whose name is withheld, is the third

Abstract:
"Grey as schoolmaster stands on a low dais in profile to the right, addressing nine schoolboys (Tories); he holds an open book, 'Reformers First Primer', and leans on his desk, saying, 'Say after Me I Shou'd Reform Thou Shoudst Reform He Shoud Reform We Shou'd Reform You Shou'd Reform They Shou'd Reform'. Behind him is the front portion of an ornate chair, as in the French print. Brougham stands full-face, as usher, holding a big birch-rod (see British Museum Satires No. 15535). Four pupils sit on the front bench behind them is another row of four; Wellington stands behind on a stool (invisible) wearing a fool's cap, like an extinguisher, decorated with bells. He holds a torn primer, and with his fingers to his mouth says 'I Can't Reform'. Peel is the only boy who looks at Grey. The pupils are ill-drawn and badly characterized; two are Lyndhurst and Goulburn, wearing spectacles. All (except Lyndhurst, who is in wig and gown) wear boyish dress, with white neck-frills or collars, some wearing pinafores."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
A satire on the electoral Reform Bill of 1831, which was passed soon after this print was issued. Grant shows the figure of blind Justice leaning out from a mass of billowing clouds and holding her scales labelled "Reform 1813". The load on the left side labeled "People', though containing fewer documents -- Magna Carta, Economy & Retrenchment, Peace of Plenty, Extension of the Electi[c] Franchise, Cheap Government -- is heavier than the other plate "Oligarchy" which is weighted down by: Bribes, Corruption, Six Acts, Corn Law, Church, Rotten Boroughs, Corporation Charters, Law & Iniquity, Taxes, Imposts, Holy Alliance, [F?]onal Debt. A group of four men in the left foreground include a judge; the one man says "Behold! a mere feather turns the ballance in our favour and saves us from revolution & disgrace." Just beyond them in the middle distance the King stands firmly and says "The triumph of this great & vital cause will fix my crown more firm upon my head." On the right a group of over six men including a clergyman who wipes his brow and cries "The draft is in their favor. Our cause is lost. Oh dictatorium, dictatorium, dic-". Another gentleman behind him cries "They may vainly recken on a paltry unit, we have yet power to rent it peicemeal [sic]." In the distance a crowd cheers, and some hold signs for "Reform" and "Support the King & his ministers", etc

Grey fields near the King, exclaiming, 'Hu.a he's Out'; the King: 'Aye and with a Ground hopper too'. Farther off (left to right) are Burdett (in top-boots), Lord John Russell, who says 'Thats what I call a Purger' [see British Museum Satires No. 16602], and Brougham. All the players wear shirts and waistcoats. There are also two others in the field (as spectators they wear coats), Aberdeen (indicated by tartan) who says 'Foul Foul', and Cumberland. In the background are many frantically cheering spectators and a marquee from which flies a flag inscribed 'Umpire Public Opinion'."--British Museum online catalogue
