Abstract:
"An obese old doctor sits between Mrs Clarke and a thin elderly officer (right), chapeau-bras, sitting grotesquely expectant on the edge of his Easy Chair. The doctor puts a money-bag inscribed 800 into the dress which Mrs. Clarke holds up to receive it, pointing to the officer, one Captain Tuck. From his pocket hangs a paper Doctor Doneover [Donovan] Agent to Old Nick-Deanery 2000, Commissary 1000, Majority 800 Mrs. Clarke (left) sits in a Ricketty Chair; its seat is Morocco Bottom [an allusion to Taylor, see No. 11218]; under her feet are three papers: My admirable angel My Dear dear pretty little darling; My Love my Life I cannot exist without you; Gazzette. She is one of Rowlandson's pretty meretricious women, and does not resemble Mrs. Clarke. Behind her is a curtained bed, its head inscribed Boudoir; above this hangs a bust profile portrait of Fredirick 2 beneath which a paper is pinned up: List of Candidates for Promotion Sums offered Clav . . . [Clavering, see No. 11247] 2000, Dow. [Dowler, see No 11253]-800, OM [O'Meara, see No. 11258] 300 .. . 200. Beside the bed is an ornate table with decanters and glass, and a paper: Rogues all sing tanta-ra-ra-Blood an Thunder when Whore and Rogue are rent asunder. On the floor is a book, Mrs Clarks Ledger, on which are papers spiked on a file: Promotions paid for. Two quotations from Gay's 'Beggars Opera' complete the design. Above the doctor's head, on a large scroll, are eight lines beginning:"Tis Woman that seduces all mankind, Under Tuck's chair is a paper: If you mention vice or bribe, Tis so pat to all the tribe-each cries that was levelled at me."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Scene at the door of a Portsmouth brothel, a corner-house. A handsome young prostitute, elaborately dressed, with curls, feathered hat, and fluttering sash, walks from it, gazing straight before her. Behind her is a fat and hideous bawd, hands on hips, who watches her with calculating malevolence. The bawd wears a watch and seals dangling from her waist; behind her is a doorway inscribed 'Hotel', with an oil-lamp (as in British Museum Satires No. 11454) projecting from the door-post; a bell-pull is inscribed 'Ring the Bell'. Just within the door is a dark lobby lit by a lamp hanging from the ceiling and leading to a second (closed) door in which there is a small grille or judas. On the wall of the house is the inscription 'Portsmouth Dock', and three bills: 'From the Country an Assortment of Fresh Ware'; 'A Tragedy in Rehearsal'; 'Leakes Genuine Pills'. In the background is a humbler establishment, with irregular gabled roof and a porch inscribed 'Lodgings'. A sailor stands looking up at a woman who leans from the window with outstretched arms. Flames and smoke belch from the chimney. Behind it are masts and sails."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"An elderly schoolmaster sits by a writing-table, in profile to the right, addressing an old countrywoman who faces him, making a slight curtsey. Behind her (right) are four little boys, two with bags of books slung from the shoulder. The schoolmaster, who wears night-cap, slippers, and buttoned overcoat or dressing-gown, says: "Good woman you are always making complaints against my Scholars, what have they done to offend you now?" She answers: "Please your Honors Worship they followd me up and down--and said one to another--At her!--beat her! damn her!--pelt her!-- and a great deal more that I do not recollect". The leader of the boys, bowing, cap in hand, says: "Indeed Sir, we were only repeating our Greek Alphabet, in order to get quite perfect--what the Old Woman heard was only Alpha--Beta-- Gamma--Delta--and so on to the conclusion". The boys' expressions indicate a successful conspiracy."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"John Bull, a hideously carbuncled 'cit', looks down grinning at a semicircle of men on a much smaller scale who surround his half-length figure. They are (left to right) Napoleon, wearing a huge bicorne, who looks up to say 'Ships. Colonies and Commerce'. A man in military uniform, quite unlike Alexander, his back to Napoleon, says: "Russian Vengeance attend John Bull. A fat Dutch burgher puffs smoke towards John, saying, III eternally smoke him". A scowling man in civilian dress with tousled hair says: "Let him tremble at the name of America". Prussia, a handsome military officer in place of the damaged soldier who after Tilsit represented Frederick William III in English caricature, says: "Beware of Prussia". A similar officer (Francis I) says: "Austria will never Pardon him". A Spaniard wearing a cocked hat says: "Spanish Fury overtake him". A scowling face says: "Let him beware of Denmark". John says: "Dont make such a riot you little noisy Brats, all your bustle to me is no more than a storm in a Chamber pot"."--British Museum online catalogue
