"Heading to a set of verses printed in two columns, and purporting to be a song made formerly by the boys of Westminster School on an application from 'Mrs Anna Davis' to Dr. Smith (see BMSat 4921, &c.) 'to whip Master Lloyd and some other boys who kept bantam fowls in a yard adjoining her house and disturbed her much . . .'. An ugly old maid in a half-tester bed sits up and frowns angrily at a grinning schoolboy (left) who stands just within the open door holding a cock. On a chair by her bed is a lighted candle, 'Ovid's Art of Love', and a pair of spectacles. Her stays and shoes lie on the floor. The verses are directed 'to Mr Holland' by 'Pedagogue' on the occasion of Mrs. Davis's death: they relate that Mrs. Anna Davis, an elderly prude, had amorous desires towards 'charming Jacky Lloyd'."--British Museum online catalogue
