"Lord Sackville advances in profile to the left, declaiming, left knee raised as if climbing a citadel, left hand on his breast, holding up in his right hand a cylindrical roll resembling a document, but inscribed 'Telum imbelle', symbolizing his unsoldierly conduct at Minden. His feet are cut off by the lower margin. Behind and below him (right) are the grinning heads of Lord Stormont and Lord Derby, saying "Hear Hear Hear". Sackville faces a flag inscribed 'Irish [P]ropositions', above which is a dove with an olive-branch, symbolizing the reconciliation between the Opposition and Sackville, who is supposed to be acting under their orders. Below the design is etched: 'Head Quarters Brookes's, 18th July 1785 You are to attack the Enemy's Propositions at six o'clock this evening [Fox] To [Sackville]' The signature and address are represented by strokes of erasure, see BMSat 6802 A.

"Pitt's 'Propositions' for freedom of commerce between England and Ireland are supported on an Irish harp which rests on a rectangular framework above a fire which is being made to blaze by North and Fox. North (left, as Boreas), on hands and knees, his cheeks inflated, blows at the flames; Fox (right), seated on a bulky roll inscribed 'Petition from the Cotton Manufacture[rs]', plies a pair of bellows. The fuel of the fire consists of papers inscribed 'Rumour', 'Evidence at the Bar' (2), 'Pamphlets', 'Pleadings at ye Bar' (2), 'Arguments'. The flames and smoke which extend above their heads are inscribed 'Distrust', 'To Scotland', 'Discontent', 'To the Chamber of Commerce', 'Objections', 'Jealousy', 'To Manchester'."--British Museum online catalogue
