Print shows Priestley walking right to left, diagonally away from the spectator; his face, turned in profile to the left, has a sinister smile. He holds out, as firebrands, two burning papers: 'Political Sermon' and 'Essay on Government'. From his pockets other papers project inscribed: 'Revolution Toasts, Essays on Matlin [sic] Spirit' and 'Gunpowder'. He tramples on books and papers, including an open book: 'Bible explained away.' Cf. British Museum catalogue

A view of the interior of a busy English barracks shows a more domestic than military atmosphere although weapons and other gear adorn the walls and lay scattered on the floor. The scene includes a woman nursing a baby (left); beside her, one soldier brushes his britches while another adjusts his helmet. A second woman (center) carries a child on her back as she hands a drink to a soldier who sits on a bunk; a basket of rolls (?) hangs from her arm. A third woman (left) stands at a washing tub wringing out clothes as she looks up approvingly at a young boy dressed as a soldier; beside her a handsome, well-dressed solder holds a baby who smiles at the scene
