Sailors carouse in a drunken orgy between decks; hammocks are slung from the roof and drunken sailors vomit over the sides into the crowd. Musicians play fiddles and drums. Men and women drink and dance. A negro fiddles; a Jew sits on the ground ready to receive the watch which a woman steals from a sailor as she sits stirring a bowl on a box labeled "T. Ockham'. A marine kicks over a bucket labeled with the ships name as he spills the contents of his mug onto a barefoot boy who in turn pours the contents of his kettle onto a dog. To the left is a large keg of rum. The scene is watched by smiling officers (left), among whom is Lord Cochrane. This wartime scene is called to mind by the sight of the frigate 'Peranga' lying off Spithead. See British Museum catalogue

Additional bottles and canisters of medicine sit on the table and floor behind the doctor; a skeleton and skull and crossbones are seen above the table

A view of wartime merriment: A procession of sailors and their women, escorted by fiddlers, passes a background of shops towards a gateway across the end of the street (left). The purveyor of the jollification, a sailor who has inherited money, sits astride a cask of 'real Jamaica' supported on poles carried by sailors, who wave hat and tankard towards the crowded first-floor windows. Men and women dance along the street. There are many incidents. A Jew, talking to another Jew outside a shop placarded 'Moses Slop-Shop', has his hat twitched off by the cane of a sailor who leans from above the doorway. The sailors carry an Ensign flag and a flag inscribed 'Leander', and are making for the Point. See British Museum catalogue
