Abstract:
"Two figures face each other made of tools, implements, &c. A carpenter, very thin and erect, is composed of a straw tool-bag, placed vertically and containing saw, plane, &c., supported on a pair of compasses for legs. The head is a mallet on which is a glue-pot, with gimlet, chisel, &c. An axe serves as arm. The gardener bends politely; the body is a watering-pot supported on a pair of shears. The head is a nosegay of roses, &c. tied to a spade; roses and lavender lie in a piece of drapery that serves as apron. A rake and hoe are thrust through the handle of the watering-pot. Below the Carpenter: 'With Bowels lank and Head of Mallet, The Joiner longs to taste a Sallad.' Below the gardener: 'Old Nosegay quite alert and busy, Has one to sell and asks a tizzey.'."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Two figures face each other made of domestic utensils. A housemaid (left), very erect, has a wooden bucket for a body supported on a mop and a long-handled floor-polisher, and is also concocted of a broom, a dust-pan, a brush, and a hearth-brush, with a check duster, &c. A cook (right) seems to bow courteously towards the housemaid. She is made of a 'Flour' barrel supported on a large ladle and two-pronged fork; a covered pot with pot-hooks hanging from the handle, a rolling-pin (as right arm) to which a colander is attached. There are also a grid-iron (or save-all), a small saucepan, a salt-box, and dangling metal skewers."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"A sailor stands full-face, legs astride, hands plunged through the bottomless pockets of his jacket; he squints violently, one eye turned on an uproar (left), the other on two termagants (right). His broken pipe, still smoking, lies at his feet. He says: "I am hardup--not a Quid left, or Shot in the Locker--to pay the Fiddler--Mi Eyes--what a Squall, how it whistles trough the Ratlines I must Braill up and Scudd under Bare Poles." A prostitute with a patched face (left) kicks him and is about to bring down a fiddle with broken strings on his head. This she has snatched from a man with a wooden leg and patched eye-socket who lies on the ground at her feet. Another woman (right) yells at him, holding out an enormously long bill on which are such items as 'D°', often repeated, and 'Sundreys', 'Lodgings', 'Grog', 'Fidler'. Behind her an old bawd in the bar points to a chalked-up score, where signs for guineas are marked. On the left a watchman with a lantern enters, springing his rattle, which is inscribed 'St C'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"A sailor with a hideously carbuncled face lies in a hammock wearing a striped shirt and night-cap. Beside him is his sea-chest, the open lid inscribed 'Sea Stock', from which he has taken a bottle of 'Grogg'. He shakes his fist at an old-fashioned doctor, lean and grotesque (left), who stoops towards him proferring a box of 'Pills' and holding a long bottle labelled 'A Sweat'. Under the doctor's arm is a gold-headed cane, and from his coat-pocket project a 'Clyster' [pipe] which is exploding, and a bottle of 'Jollop'; beside him are a 'Pestel' and 'Mortar'. He says: "hold--I must stop Your Grog Jack--it excites those impulces, and concussions of the Thorax, which acorn pany Sternutation by which means you are in a sort of a kind of a Situation--- that Your head must be--shaved--I shall take from you only--20os of Blood-- then swallow this Draught and Box of Pills, and I shall administer to you a Clyster."

In his chest are bottles inscribed 'Brandy', 'Rum', and 'Gin', a large twist of 'Pig tail' [tobacco], a 'True Love Token', and a miniature (cf. British Museum Satires No. 10894).

"Lovegrove as Jeremiah Babble stands hat in hand before a solid rail, behind which is a grotesquely fat woman, dressed in her best, with a rope round her neck, at whom he points. Three other men stand by, one with a hand on Lovegrove's shoulder, the others inspecting the woman. The verses relate that Hobbs, 'a jolly Shoe-Maker', having 'caught a Tartar' for his wife tried to sell her at Smithfield, but the wife-dealing fellows, were all of them 'sellers'., Hobbs thereupon tried to hang himself with the rope, but his wife cut him down and: They settled their troubles, like most married couples, John Hobbs, John Hobbs, Oh, happy shoe-maker John Hobbs. Such wife-selling was a common practice, popularly believed to be a legal method of divorce (and so reported by foreign visitors). 'Any Thing New' was a musical farce by Pocock, first played by the English Opera Company at the Lyceum on 1 July 1811. The song illustrated was the chief hit, being twice encored, then a remarkable event; it is printed in full in the 'Europ. Mag.' lx. 43."--British Museum online catalogue

"A handsome young courtesan sits by the fire, her legs crossed indecorously, her breast bare; she has a decanter at her elbow, and holds a glass of wine. Standing on each side of her are her jailor, holding a bunch of keys, and a hideous old woman; both drink. Over the chimney-piece is a placard: 'Mac Nab Sherrifs Officer for the County of Middlesex--Genteel Accomodation for Ladies and Gentlem[en]'. The door (left) is heavily bolted, and has an iron grille; the large, partly curtained window is massively barred."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"A grotesquely fat woman, much decolletee, sits at a piano (left) singing and playing, her left foot on the pedal. With upturned eyes and gaping mouth she sings: "Just like love ..." [three times]. Her music book is open at: 'Just like Love a Favorite Song Sung by Mr Braham'. A fat man in old-fashioned dress, standing just behind her, his hands raised in surprise, turns to address two younger men who are fashionably dressed. He asks: "Don't my Lady play and Sing delightfully? she was finished under the famous Sigr Squawlletti." The man on the extreme right, holding his friend's arm, says: "By G- if the Signior had been under my Lady she would have finish'd him! would'nt She Sir Thomas." The other laughs: "Ha! Ha!
