"A plebeian family of 'cits' drive in a rough two-wheeled cart (aping a fashionable gig) drawn by a clumsy carthorse. The man drives, wearing cocked hat and top-boots; his wife, wearing large feathers in her small straw cap, holds up a fan. Both are absurdly complacent. A boy and girl are crammed in. Behind rides a fat and grinning footman, with plodding dog. On the extreme right a newsboy with the 'London Gazette' blows his horn. Behind (left) is an open doorway inscribed 'Mash Brewer'; within are casks. The wall is inscribed 'Puddle Dock', and on it are two bills: 'Theatre Royal Covent Garden the Comedy of the Bankrupt with High Life Below Stairs and A House to be let in Grosvenor Square Suitable for a Genteel Family' (they appear to be bound for this house). Houses form a background."--British Museum online catalogue.

Three wizards (right) in monkish robes tend a boiling cauldron inscribed: 'Eye of Straw & toe of Cade ... For the ingredients of our cauldron'. Facing them (right) sits the Devil enthroned, holding a trident, with a three-headed scaly monster beside him; he says: "Pour in Streams of Regal Blood Then the Charm is firm & good." Burning pamphlets feed the fire under the cauldron; they are being heaped up by Horne Tooke, from whose mouth issues a label: 'H - T. Tis time tis time tis time'. The next, stirring the contents, says "Thrice! and Twice King's Heads have fallen". The third (? Dr. Towers), [Perhaps Dr. Parr; Towers died 20 May 1799.] flourishing a broom-stick, says, "Thrice the Gallic Wolves have bayed"; he holds an open book: 'Lying Whore \ False Swearing'. Behind the wizards is a procession of the Opposition. The first three (abreast) are Bedford, Norfolk, and Lord Derby. They say respectively: "Where are they! - gone Pocketed the Church and Poorlands The Tythes next" ..."Oh fallen Sovereingty degraded Counseller" ...; "Poor joe is done No test or Corporation Acts" ... The next three are Fox, Erskine, and Tierney; they say respectively: "Where can I hide my secluded Head" ... "Ah woe is me - poor I" ... "Would I had never spoke of the Licentiousness of the Press". Behind them is Burdett, saying, "What can I report to my Friends at the Bastile" .... Behind there is an undifferentiated crowd entering the cave and headed by Thelwall holding a volume of 'Thelwalls Lectures' ... exclaiming, "Tm off to Monmouthshire". The procession is watched by a snaky monster (left). Above their heads and resting on clouds are small figures: the King, allegorically depicted, holding a serpent in each hand. Behind him are Pitt, saying, "Suspend their Bodies", (?) Grenville, (?) Windham, saying "Almighty God has been pleased to grant us a great Victory", and Kenyon, saying "Take them to the Kings Bench & Cold Bath fields" ... The divine ray is inscribed: 'Afflavit Deus et dissipantur \ Your Destruction cometh as a Whirlwind \ Vengeance is ripe.' Four winged demons fly off (right) in the smoke of the cauldron, three have collars on which their names are engraved: 'Robesp[ierre]', 'Voltaire', and 'Price'. An ape dressed as a newsboy, with 'Courier' on his cap (..., blows his horn towards the cauldron. Behind him, in the extreme right corner, is an open book: 'Analitical Review \ Fallen never to rise again.' The seditious papers which feed the fire are: 'Equali[ty]'; 'Blasphemy Sedition'; 'Sophims' [sic]; 'Heresy'; 'Atheism'; 'Resistance is Prudence'; 'Belshams History'; 'Whig Club'; 'The Vipers of Monarchy and Aristocracy will soon be strangled by the Infant Democracy' ...

I'll find out your intrigues-- you may depend upon it." A small dog sits at the foot of the bed yelping at the couple while a larger dog sleeps on the floor, his eyes squeezed shut.

"Pl. to the 'Anti-Jacobin Review' (issued separately). Grattan (right) has risen from his arm-chair to greet with outstretched hands two young men whom a servant (left), with a knowing gesture, has just shown into his library. One introduces the other: "Mr Grattan give me leave to introduce Mr Jn° H--gh--'s"; Grattan says: "I suppose Sir you are an United Irishman"; Hughes answers: "I am". A bust of 'Le Paus' (see BMSat 9240) on a high pedestal on the extreme right looks down cynically at Grattan. On the wall behind him are portraits of 'Lord Fitzgerald' (see BMSat 9227), 'Tom Paine' (a mere scrawl), and 'Robespier[re]', with a placard: 'New Irish Government Liberty and Equality to be introduced by our worthy & disinterested Allies the French'. The other two walls are lined with bulky volumes: 'Towers Tracts' (see BMSat 7890); 'Republic'; 'Wakefield' (see BMSat 9371); 'Parr' (see BMSat 9430); 'The Press' (see BMSat 9186, &c); 'The Courier' (see BMSat 9194, &c); 'Christie'; 'Molineux'; 'Pain's Works' (see BMSat 8137, &c); 'Critical Review' (see BMSat 9240); 'Mc Niven'; 'Priestly Works' (see BMSat 7887); 'O'Connor' (see BMSat 9245, &c.) On the writing-table are documents: 'Constitution of United Irishmen' and 'Copy of the [illegible word] of ye Test of Oath'. On the floor at Grattan's feet is a sheaf of pikes with papers: 'Contract for Pikes'; 'Plan for the destruction of both Houses of Parlaiment Bank & . . by Tone'; 'Dispatches from the French Conventi[on]'; 'List of united Irishmen in London Hamburg . . .'; a portfolio: 'Charts of the Irish Coast with remarks where foreign troops may be landed with great safety'; two large books: 'Art of Assassination' and 'Rise and Progress of Jacobinism'."--British Museum online catalogue.

Plate from the 'Anti-Jacobin Review', ii. 233: On the extreme right the Devil holds up a canvas, 'le Tableau Parlant', which terrifies twelve Irishmen grouped round an oblong table. In their alarm the heavy table has been overturned, some are on the ground, others (left) flee in terror. The Devil, who looks round the edge of his picture, wears a bonnet-rouge inscribed 'Anarchy'; labels hang from his horn: 'Blasph[emy]' and 'Parracide'. He says "Stew it well - It cannot be Overdone for you and me". In the picture, 'Irish Stew I A Favourite Disk for French Palates', two French soldiers superintend the boiling of a Revolutionary Pot, in which stand three naked Irishmen shrieking for mercy; one says: "Liberty of being Stewed"; the other, "Equality - all to be stewed en Masse". Above the table five harpies fly off with a tattered cloth inscribed 'Map of Ireland'. They are intended for the Directors, three having belts inscribed 'Tallien' (not a Director), 'Barras', and 'Le Paux'. On the table is a paper, 'United Irishmen'. The Irishmen make gestures of terror or despair. Most look at the picture, one looks upwards, saying: "Poor Erin How thourt torn to pieces by these five Harpies." A fugitive looks round to say "What your own A. O Connor too!" A lawyer (? Curran): "So much for Republicani[sm] and glorious Independence! No Money! No Lawyer." A monk: "By St Patrick a complete Catholic Emancipation." Three others say: "I now howl in Vain - We are all gone to Pot"; "Brother John [Bull] would not have treated us so -" ; "My Merits with the Republic should have saved me, but I find we must all stew together" [he is perhaps Grattan]; "A Radical Reform by Jasus". Beside the last speaker, a ragged peasant, lies a bundle of pikes, &c.

Two vicars sit at a table in a sitting room; a painting on the wall behind them is labelled "View of the vicarage". One of the men is very fat and wears a night cap; he dozes in an arm chair, his foot on a sleeping dog at his feet, the "Oxford Journal" on the floor having apparently dropped from his hand.
