I've | "Lost my Honor!"; she tilts her head so that the aigrette in her turban burns in a candle (unnoticed by the players). Her furious partner: "Then Ma'am You shou'dn't | "have played the Odd Trick. A dandy, warming his back at the fire (left), stares at the conflagration, and an amused footman capers off to the right, tilting a salver."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The Duchess of Devonshire (right), in morning cap and gown, makes tea for Fox and Sam House who sit side by side on a sofa (left). The duchess leans back in her chair, one hand on the tap of the urn, while she hands a cup to a footman who stands with a tray. Sam (left) has been served first; he sits stirring his tea and gazing adoringly at Fox (right), who playfully pats his bald head. A spaniel stands in front of them, begging. On the wall behind are two freely sketched whole length portraits: behind the duchess is Reynolds's portrait of her husband standing by his horse (as in British Museum Satires No. 6546), the other is over the heads of House and Fox."--British Museum online catalogue
