"Dr. Syntax, wearing his hat, stands in an inn breakfast-room, his back to the round table which is close to the (empty) grate, facing the window and writing in his note-book. A young man embraces a comely maidservant, and water from her kettle scalds the doctor. A dog seizes a chop from the table. There is an open wall-cupboard (right) containing punch-bowls, glasses, &c. A print of 'Catalani' singing and a picture of a jockey leading a horse are on the wall, and on the chimney-piece a notice headed 'Masonic Society'."--British Museum online catalogue

In a crowded tavern before a large roaring fire, Dr. Syntax sits on a bench smoking his pipe as he engages in debate with three companions. A man leans over the back of the bench and blows a large cloud of smoke into the back of Dr. Syntax's head. The room is filled with military personnel who frolic and flirt with pretty girls; the barmaid stands at the bar pouring wine. Everyone has a full glass at hand. The signs on either side of a large clock read "Real Yorkshie stinco" and "No trust here".

"Four elderly physicians fight wildly, flourishing their canes, in a room leading to that of the patient (right). One has fallen on his back, two others fight across him, each planting a foot on his chest; he clutches at the coat of one of these, shouting, "I say it is an exfoliation of the Glands, which has fallen on the membranous coats of the Intestines & must be thrown off by an Emetic." In his pocket is a letter: 'To Dr Emetic Upper B . . .' In the pocket of the man he clutches is a letter: 'To Dr Sudorific . . . sell. Squoe.' The latter answers the antagonist who has seized his neckcloth: "I say it is a pleurisie in the Thigh and must be Sweated away!" His adversary, 'Dr Drastic Cloacina Row', answers: "You are a blockhead! I say it is a nervous affection of the Cutis & the patient must immediately loose 18 ounces of blood and then take a powerfull Drastic." The fourth doctor (right) assails Drastic: "What are you quarrelling about! you are all wrong I say it is an inflamation on the os Sacrum, & therefore 14 blisters must be immediately applied to the part affected & the adjacents." His letter of identification is: 'To Dr Blister Cantheartic Pla . . .' Through the open door (right) the amused patient, in dressing-gown and night-cap, watches the fray from beside his bed, having just risen from a commode. He remarks: "I say Dame Nature has relieved me both of the Cause & Effects while these learned disputants are deciding the nature of my complaint-so I'll e'en be off to save both my money and my Life."--British Museum online catalogue

Two men, elderly and grotesque, stand one on each side of a double-bass, playing it simultaneously with great vigour; one (right) is left-handed. Behind the instrument stands a violinist, holding up fiddle and bow in his right hand, giving an agonized scream and stopping his ear with his finger. In the foreground lies a large open music-book: 'Double Bass Hum strum diddle dum'. On the wall is a picture of a little chimneysweep flourishing two brushes like drum-sticks behind the Hottentot Venus (see British Museum satires No. 11577), who capers along, pipe in one hand, staff in the other, her much-exaggerated posterior serving as a drum. A vase of flowers stands on a wall-bracket.'

"The interior of a tent. Duroc, in his shirt, lies supported by a soldier on a wooden bed, while Napoleon (right) holds his right hand, turning away (to the right) and covering his face with his left hand. An officer stands solicitously beside the Emperor, supporting his left elbow. Another officer stands (left) behind the head of the low bed. On the extreme left a soldier bends over a table compounding medicaments. Duroc's coat and sword lie on a camp-stool, beside his hat and boots. A glimpse of the distant camp is seen on the extreme right, where a Mameluke stands by the tent holding Napoleon's horse. Duroc is addressing the Emperor, with his left arm extended. Their words are etched below the title: "Duroc, "My whole life has been consecrated to your service, nor do I regret its loss, but for the use it still might have been of to your Buonaparte, "Duroc!" there is a life to come; it is there you are going to wait for me, and where we shall one day meet again!" Duroc, "Yes Sire! but that will not be these thirty years, when you will have triumphed over your enimies [sic], and realised all the hopes of your country, I have lived an honest man: I have nothing to reproach myself with, ah! Sire! go away this sight gives you pain--Be, "Farewell then my friend"."--British Museum online catalogue
