"Sheridan (left) and the Duke of Norfolk, bloated and senile, stagger tipsily on the pavement of St. James's Street, walking from the door of 'Brooks's' (right) which they have just left. Lamps light the façade of the club, part of which is visible with three (lighted) windows on the first floor. Sheridan holds the Duke's right arm, and raises his right fist in a rhetorical gesture, saying, "And now, have at the Ministry, Damme!"; in his pocket are papers: 'Motions for to Badger Ministry'. The Duke says: "and Now for the Majesty of the People!" From his coat-pocket projects a bottle of 'Port'."--British Museum online catalogue

"Mrs. Clarke and four other women stoop down and directs blasts from large posteriors, defined by tight dresses, against the sails of a windmill (right) which pivot upon the head of the Duke of York. The four sails are inscribed respectively, Army, State, Navy, Church. The mill, on a low hill to which a winding path ascends, is Commission Warehouse. The names of the five meretricious-looking women are inscribed on their posteriors. One clutching a tree, on the extreme left, and advantageously placed on a hillock, is Carey. She says: If this wont raise the Wind, I do not know what will, This is not the first time I have employed my bottom to raise the Wind. The other four are close together: Cressaid, Sutherland, Cook, and Clarke, who says: Aye and no bad way to raise an Army-also. Between the women and the mill stands a dismayed little man with arms extended; he says: O ho this will not bring Grist to my Mill I must put a stop to this; and remove this Mill to Charing Cross."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
A manservant and a maidservant on the extreme left peer through a half-opened door at two men seated at a round table covered with a white cloth on which are plates of peas, a decanter, and wineglasses. A waiter (left) is leaning towards them checking prices off on his fingers and saying: "I'm sure Gentlemen on inspection you'll find the charges very reasonable, nothing can be cheaper, fifteen shillings the peas! Ducks one pound one!!!" The man in the middle of the table looks at him with his mouth open; the man on the left holds up a sheet of paper on which is written "No. 4 Tim Fleecem Duck £1.1. Peas 0.15 s." He shouts: "Ducks!!! why my good friend they are Guinea Fowls!!!"
