- 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!!!"

The doctor, holding his cane to his nose, answers: "You eat well--you drink well and you sleep well--very good-- You was perfectly right in coming to me, for depend upon it I will give you something that shall do away all these things".

He says: "Ladies & Gentlemen-- I have the honor for the first time in this county of Kent to deliver a Lectur on Optic's". A fat elderly man rises from his chair to say: "I humbly ax pardon Sir -but before you get on furder, I rises with all due difference to inform you as how in this country we do not call them Hop sticks but Hop poles". The others, more sophisticated, are amused, while the hop-merchant's son, standing behind, registers anguish.

- Abstract:
- "Simple-minded people gaze up at placards inviting subscriptions to unsound companies. A high wall runs from a house partly visible on the extreme left, to the street corner, enclosing a large building placarded Hospital for Incurables Supported by Voluntary Subscribers [i.e. for victims of speculation mania]. On the right are old-fashioned houses, one of which is alined with a church, the scene suggesting one of the older parts of the City of London with seventeenth-century houses. The high wall on the left is covered with large bills at which the gullible are gazing: [1] Doctors Company--Capital One Million divided into Shares at -- Pr Share--the Advantages incalculable No Charge for Emetics opening draughts Injections &c-- [signed] Sam Sexton Clerk, [2] Patent Coffins provided on the shortest notice --No Surgeons Admitted--. [3] Genuine Milk Company free from Chalk Poison Water &--. [4] Company of Menders--Open to both Sxes in shares at--pr Share. None to be Admitted but who can give undeniable proofs of mending either their wives or Husbands Neighbours or Friends and lastly but most particularly Themselves. [5] Company of Scavengers Nightman [sic] and all imposters to be sent to the House of Correction. [6] Company of White Washers NB No Lawyers admitted [cf. British Museum Satires Nos. 11269, 11272]. [7] More Advantages-- A New Cabbage and Potatoe Compy Warrented Genuine No cooking required saves time and trouble 5s each Share. [8] Match and Tinder Compy Capital 2 Millions five farthings each Share. [9] Blacking Company. On the opposite side of the wide irregular street is a low-grade barber's shop, with the barber shaving a customer in the doorway. Outside the door his dwarfish assistant sharpens a razor on a grindstone. Above the door is a large tilted board: Tim, Slashem Barber and Perriwig Maker--begs leave to inform the patronizers of Merit--that he means to form a New Company of Mowers of Beards having discovered a New Machine to Shave 60 men in a minute, to comb oil and powder their wigs in the Bargain. NB. Bleeding and Teeth drawn gratis. The striped pole slants forward above the board. At a casement window under the roof a woman is washing; a cat prowls on the tiles. This is a corner-house, its (invisible) side facing Bubble Alley, where the corner-house has a large placard: Peter Puff--Manufacturer of Deal Boards--without Knots from genuine Saw dust &c. At right angles to this is a narrow street receding towards the church. On this are more bills and a projecting lantern: Subscri[bers or ptions] taken in here. Spectators gaze at the bills in the foreground, middle distance, and background. On the left a fat 'cit' and his taller and more fashionable wife walk purposefully; she dangles a reticule, his hand is deep in a pocket, they are clearly deluded subscribers. A yokel and his wife gaze up at the 'Milk Company' advertisement. On the right a countryman on horseback followed by his dog stares up at the barber's notice, as does a bearded Jew carrying a sack (of old clothes)."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "Scene in a handsomely furnished dining-room, probably in a club. The table is close to the large fireplace (right). The diners, eight elderly men, rise from their chairs to gaze in angry dismay at a calamity caused by a dog who has tripped up a servant in the doorway, making him spill the contents of a dish, while the man immediately behind him lets the contents of a tureen pour out. A third (left), gaping at the accident while drawing the cork of a bottle of 'Spruce Beer', lets the contents squirt at his fellow servants. Two of the 'epicures' grasp knife and fork, two have napkins tucked under the chin, one is in military uniform, two seem to be parsons. The room is pillared, with a handsome moulded ceiling and elaborate hanging candelabrum. On the chimney-piece tankards and goblets flank the squatting figure of a Chinese glutton. Above it is a large mirror in a heavy carved frame. Over the door is a picture of gormandizing monks."--British Museum online catalogue
