Queen Adelaide, side-saddle on a horse with a man's face, Lord Grey, using spurs and a riding crop to press him into the 'Slough of Despond', joining other politicians including Wellington. Grey says, " Don't drive so hard; you will worry me to death." A signpost 'To Reform' points the other way. A group behind her cry, "Go it, Addy, push him on, don't let him make any, without he first makes us."
