A montage of images with the portrait of the Duke of Cumberland in the center. The theme is the defeat of the Young Pretender at the Battle of Culloden. In the upper left corner is an image of a broadside ballad, 'A Loyal Song', sung by Mr. Beard at the Theatre Royal in Covent Garden. Over it is superimposed a playing card of Jack of clubs in Scottish dress looking wistfully towards the Duke. Below, partially under the Duke's portait is an image of the Devil drawing the Scots caught in his net towards a hill on top of which stands the 'triple tree', i.e., the gallows, decorated with a royal crown at each corner. Beneath this image is another, showing the British cavalry, well equipped and healthy, pursuing the Scots on bony horses. Partially covering that image, at the bottom of the plate, is a smaller, allegorical representation of Britannia and Liberty pointing to a beehive and a temple of Concord. The last image, in top right of plate, shows the British army marching in a parade. Eight lines of verse, enclosed in a vignette, below the medley, begin as follows: Britons, behold the Royal Youth, 'tis he who fights your battles , sets your country free ...

Abstract:
A broadside, anti-Jacobite, anti-Catholic and anti-French. The illustration portrays a coat of arms, flanked by a priest and a Highlander; below the etching in letterpress are three columns beginning with the text: "The explanation." The lilies of the French Royal arms changed to upside down frogs and the legitimacy of the Stewart line questioned by the inclusion of the bed-pan child over the priest's shoulder. The text begins: "The three toads are the French Old Coat of Arms, their heads downward, in a sable fields; the coat revers'd denotes treason in perfection. The supporters are a Popish priest on one side in his habit, with a warming-pan on his shoulder, with the lid open and a young child in it. In his right hand is a bloody pen-knife in a posture ready privately to execute the cruelty their religion teaches them to exercise on Protestants ...
