"A man in quasi-fashionable dress with spurred top-boots and knee-breeches gapes oafishly at a print-shop window, while a little boy, respectably dressed, takes a purse from his breeches-pocket, having already twitched a handkerchief from the coat-tail pocket which hangs inside out. Behind (right) a lady stares through an eye-glass. In each pane of the curved window of a corner-shop (Berthoud's?) is a print. One of the Devil faces a portrait of the 'Duke of Wellington'; these are 'The Pair Half a Crown' [cf. BM Satires Nos. 13826, 15646]; 'Up to every thing' is a tall soldier, taking the hand of a woman at a first-floor window; 'A Loan' is BM Satires No. 14993; 'Man of Taste' is a man at the counter of a ham and beef shop (cf. BM Satires No. 13127); 'Remember the Post Boy your Honor', scene in an inn yard. There are other prints, one is a double sheet: 'Joe Lisle Play upon words'. There is a Paul Pry (not resembling Liston, cf. BM Satires No. 15138), and against the pickpocket's head is a print of an empty gibbet."--British Museum online catalogue

A groggy surgeon-apothecary, awakened by knocking below, shouts down from an open window to an unseen patient requesting a night visit. He wears a nightcap and has a burning candle beside him. Two cats scurry away from the commotion, causing flower pots to tumble off the ledge. On the wall of the building, to the left of the window, is a depiction of a mortar and pestle as well as a sign reading "Hand in Hand Assurance" beneath two hands joined together (the emblem of the Hand-in-Hand Fire Office). The sign beneath the window reads "Cawdle, Accoucheur & Apothecary. NB. Bleeding, Cupping, Tooth Drawing &c. &c."
