- "Mrs. Clarke (right), seated on a settee, addresses a fat parson in an arm-chair who registers excitement, with leg and arms raised, and wig flying from his head. Between them is a table; by Mrs. Clarke are papers headed: Army Preferment and Church Preferment. The parson, turning up his eyes, says: O-how I should like to preach before Royalty. She says, with extended palm, Only pay the Clarkes Fees, and the business is done. Between them hangs a placard: So great on the Church were O'Meara's designs, That he prov'd too ambitious a spark, But where is the wonder ye learned Divines, That the Parson should follow the Clarke."--British Museum online catalogue.

She says: "Gentlemen it is no use to rush on in this manner -the principal places have been disposed of these three weeks and I assure you there is not even standing room". The crowd consists of military officers, elderly and often disabled, two fat parsons, a few civilians, some foppish, some the reverse, one of whom holds up a money-bag inscribed '500'. They completely fill the wide space before Mrs. Clarke, whose 'Passage' is indicated as her house by the opposite house on the extreme left. This is in 'Croakers Row', and from an attic window a little figure (Croker) peers through a telescope, as in British Museum Satires No. 11238."--British Museum online catalogue.

- Abstract:
- "Mrs. Clarke's house is on the right. A military officer (Wardle) wrapped in a cloak slips a purse into the hand of a meretricious young woman at the door, with a belt inscribed Favorit. Mrs. Clarke, her breast much exposed, leans from a window to look down at him. Two other men look from other windows. Above the door is a lantern inscribed: Now Exhibiting Wonders upon Wonders or Mrs Clarkes Puppet Show Which has given satisn to Po[ ? pulace] and Prince. Below this is a board: All the World's a Stage and Men and Women merely Players-- some play the upper some the under part, but chief Play that--most foreign to their heart. On the door: Knock and you shall Enter. On the wall (by Mrs. Clarke) is a sign for "Globe Fire Insurance". On the right the Duke of York walks away from the house; he wears a mitre and carries a crosier; a bishop's robe, on which are the words "Men have their Entrances & their Exits". Next to him walks an elderly lawyer (Adam) and a fat parson (O'Meara) hurries after him. Facing Mrs. Clarke's house is a row of houses: Prospect Row; old women, Maiden Ladies, watch from upper windows, as does an old man with a telescope who puts a grotesque head out of an attic window inscribed Peeping Toms Observatory. He says: O the Devil choak her he's Waddling in as Im a prying Croaker. Two cats fight on the roof; words issue from one of them: "Come what come may the Cat will mew. The Dog will have his day"."--British Museum online catalogue.

She says to them: Ye Captains and ye Colonels-ye parsons wanting place, Advice I'll give ye gratis and think upon your case, If there is possibility, for you I'll raise the dust, But then you must excuse me-if I serve myself the first. Below, Mrs. Clarke, much décolletée, looks from an open ground-floor window of a London house, to see a fashionably dressed man, Taylor, walking towards her holding a sealed packet. He looks over his shoulder at a yokel with a cudgel, who asks: I say Measter Shoe-maker where be you going in such a woundy hurry? Taylor answers: Dont speak to me fellow you should never pry into State affairs. Mrs. Clarke says: Open the door John here comes the Ambassador Now for the dear delightful Answer. Behind the yokel, evidently John Bull, is his dog. On the right is a house with a door-plate inscribed Mrs Weston."--British Museum online catalogue.

- Abstract:
- "Lord Chatham (left) flies across the Channel towards the English coast on a wooden horse, mule, or ass with feathered wings. Two little puppets labelled 'Dutch Dolls' are placed before him on his saddle. From two ends of a rope passing across the animal's back fly out (left) five dismantled ships inscribed 'Castles in the Air Wooden Ones', and (right) three large labels inscribed respectively: 'Walcheren Beveland'; 'Plan and Fortifications of Flushing'; 'Loss in Killed & Wounded Sick List'. The animal emits a blast from its rump inscribed 'Rockets Devil take the hindmost'. Chatham, with drawn sword, blandly addresses John Bull and his wife who stand on the shore (right) looking up at him: "Here I am my Dear Johnny escaped from Fire, Water, Plague, Pestilence & Famine My Fireworks have given general Satisfaction abroad-I must now Couch on a bed of Roses [see British Museum Satires No. 10558, &c]- and hope when I awake to be rewarded with a Pension and Dukedom for brilliant Services". John, a fat 'cit', holding out a cudgel and clenching his fist, says: "General Cheathem flying back as I foretold garnish'd with dross and Dutch Metal Where is the Ten Million of British Bullion you Scarecrow-the Sinking Fund suits your talents better than Sinking of Ships". His fat wife, holding up a little parasol, exclaims: "Lord Mr Bull what a Man of Mettle it is". Sailing towards land is a small vessel, a sail inscribed 'Commodore Cur-Tis'; the only occupant is Curtis, waving his hat and shouting: "A New Contract for Mouldy Buisciuts-Expeditions for ever Huzza". On the horizon (left) land is indicated, with buildings and a flag; above are the words 'Mortality at Flushing'."--British Museum online catalogue.
