- Abstract:
- "Heading to verses printed in four columns. Napoleon sits by a wicker cradle containing the sleeping bear of Russia (left), which he rocks with hand and foot. He leans against Holland (right), a fat burgher fast asleep. Behind a low hill on the left is a rising sun, inscribed Spain and Portugal, which irradiates part of the sky. Napoleon, precariously seated on thorns, supports himself on the point of his sheathed sword, and looks to the right, saying, This Rising Sun has set me upon thorns. The bear is tightly muzzled, the muzzle is labelled Boneys Promises. On the hood of the cradle stands a measure of Turkey Wheat. The King of Sweden stands behind Napoleon, fiercely raising his sabre; he leans towards the cradle, saying Awake thou Sluggard ere the fatal blow is struck and thou and thine execrable ally sink to eternal oblivion. In his left hand he holds up a staff and cap of Liberty. Holland sits on a cask of Genuine Hollands, holding a pipe; a broken sceptre dangles from his limp right hand. Behind him is a shadow inscribed Poland. Denmark sits with elbows on knees, his head and shoulders covered by a large extinguisher inscribed Denmark. Next stands the Emperor of Austria in hussar uniform, fiercely preparing to draw his sword; he says: Tyrant I defy thee and thy Cursed Crew. On the extreme right and in the foreground stands the King of Prussia wearing a straight-jacket covering his hands which are linked together; his feet are held in the first position by a wooden appliance (as in British Museum Satires No. 9581); he wears a crown of straw, emblem of the lunatic and chants with closed eyes and imbecile grin: Fiddle diddle dee Fiddle diddle dee The Mouse has Married the humble Bee-and I am Emperor of the Moon. Behind him lies a dead or dying Prussian eagle. On the extreme left, and half cut off by the margin is a funeral urn on a pedestal inscribed: Memory of the Crown of Naples."--British Museum online catalogue

The duke says, 'Pull on - pull on Mess-mate here is a devil of a storm coming on - little did I think I should row in the same Boat with you.' Wardle replies, 'Would it not be the best way to throw the cargo overboard brother Tug?'"--British Museum online catalogue

- "Mrs. Clarke stands between Wardle and Wright, arms akimbo, an impudent and alluring virago. Wardle turns his head from her to speak to General Clavering, who stands on the extreme left. Clavering, in regimentals, his cocked hat poised absurdly on the top of his head, stands glaring angrily at Mrs. Clarke; he says: I intend to commence an Action against her for obtaining Mony under false pretences in the case of French's Levy -- I'll teach her to send Gentlemen to Newgate. Wardle, in civilian dress, answers: Leave her to me Ill touch her up in the Furniture Business. Mrs. Clarke says: I dont care a fig for any of you -- and as to you Mr Furniture Monger [Wardle]--ll be before hand with you. Wright, the upholsterer, stands behind her (right); he looks to the left scowling, and says: Thats a good girl follow him up--ll back you Ill let him know who's Wright and whose Wrong. If I dont enter an action against him I am no Upholsterer. On the extreme right and in profile to the left, stands Serjeant Best, in wig and gown, holding a large Brief, with turn over at the bottom of the first page. He looks slyly towards all four, saying, That's right my good Friends it is All for the Best."--British Museum online catalogue

The books are on a rectangular altar, 'The Alter of Repentance', with classical mouldings, the corners being satyrs' heads. The books are inscribed 'Life of Mrs Clarke' and 'Memoirs'; with them are burning papers inscribed 'Love'; 'Darling'; 'Love Letter'. A mass of flame ascends to merge with the rays from the sun, from which the Duke looks down benevolently at Mrs. Clarke; she says, "Thus perish all that gives my Darling pain".
