"Parodied by, or a parody of, British Museum Satires No. 7277. A design based on the tickets of admission to Westminster Hall, which bore the name and arms of Sir Peter Burrell, Deputy Great Chamberlain; [in right of his wife, Lady Priscilla Bertie, who with her sister was jointly hereditary Great Chamberlain of England] in the centre of the escutcheon were the arms of his wife: three battering-rams placed horizontally. The crest was an embowed arm holding an olive-branch. In place of the rams' heads of the battering-rams are the heads, in profile to the left, of Burke, frowning, of Fox, smiling, and of Francis with a fixed stare. The arm of the crest holds a scourge whose lashes terminate in scorpions and is inscribed 'Lex Parliamenti omnipotens'. Beneath the escutcheon is a motto on a scroll: 'Sub libertate Tyran' [sic] which replaces the original motto: 'Sub Libertate Quietem'.

Sinister, Justice, looking up in terror at the scourge by which she is threatened, and dropping her scales. Beneath the escutcheon is a view in miniature of Westminster Hall showing clearly the Managers' box (left), in which Fox stands, violently declaiming; Burke sits next him frowning. A document inscribed 'First Article' hangs over the side of the box. The head of Hastings, a good profile portrait, is turned towards Fox; on the right, are his three counsel in back view.

"A ragged, dwarfish man, a pair of bellows under his arm, his apron full of guineas, is led to the poll by the Duchess of Devonshire (right) and is pushed forward by a florid over-dressed woman (left) whose breast is exposed. Jenkins has a large head with a hairy chin and a feminine figure; the Duchess puts a hand under his chin and turns to look at the crowd on the hustings, who wildly cheer his approach, except for two seated poll-clerks who appear surprised. ... Both women have elaborate head-dresses of feathers, &c, with a fillet inscribed 'Townsend'. Mother Windsor has a damaged nose and a patched face; from her pocket protrudes a paper inscribed 'List of Mrs Windsor'[s] Nuns'. She is followed (left) by three of these 'nuns' (cf. BMSat 5177, &c), who are pretty young women (cf. BMSat 6547). On the hustings behind a wooden barricade Townshend raises his hat and holds out his hand towards Jenkins. Burke looks over his shoulder and Sheridan (on the extreme right) stands beside nun in profile to the left, clasping his hands in satisfaction. The most prominent of those on the hustings is Fox, behind the Duchess, who waves his hat, raising both arms. Two poll-clerks, holding pens, sit in front of Townshend and Fox.."--British Museum online catalogue

"The cattle-pens (right) of Smithfield Market are filled with cattle with the faces of peers and draped with ermine-trimmed robes. [The ermine is apparent only in the coloured impression] Thurlow, dressed as a farmer, the owner of the cattle, stands on guard with his back to the pens; he wears his Chancellor's wig and uses the mace as a walking-stick. He clutches a full purse in his right hand and looks fiercely at a smaller number of cattle who are being driven from the left towards the pens. One of these, with the head of Lord Derby, stands on his hind legs, saying, "I move an adjournment till after the next Newmarket Meeting". The cattle in the pens (right) have the heads of peers who were believed favourable to Hastings. In the front row are (left to right) Lord Sydney, the Duke of Grafton, and (between two unidentified peers) Lord Bathurst. An ox with the head of Lord Lansdowne, his horns tipped to prevent mischief, stands (right) outside the pen which he tries to enter, his eyes slyly fixed on Thurlow (cf. BMSat 7311). Others cannot be identified. The Opposition peers include the Duke of Portland (who glares fiercely at Sydney), the Duke of Norfolk, Lord Carlisle, and Lord Stormont. They are being driven by a fierce-looking drover (left); a dog wearing a peer's robe, his collar inscribed 'Mountford', barks at them. On the extreme left Hastings, dressed as a butcher but wearing a turban, riding (right to left) a miserable horse fit only for the knacker (the horse of Hanover), carries off a calf with the profile of George III, its forelegs tied together. He whips his horse ferociously. Behind him is a pawnbroker's shop-window, with three balls and the sign 'Money Lent'. In the middle of the cattle-pens (right) is a bell (that of the Market) on a post, a man (? George Rose) wearing a bag-wig pulls the bell-rope, looking round with a cynical smile. Undifferentiated ministerial cattle at the back of the pens push with their horns at a watchman's box which they are overturning. Three men dressed as watchmen, seated on the roof (which they have climbed to escape the cattle), drop staff, lantern, and rattle and are about to fall off; they are Fox, Burke, and Sheridan. The background is formed by buildings; the pawnshop (left) adjoins a large inn behind the cattle, a house at the corner of 'Smithfield' and 'Cow Lane', which diverges on the right. It is the sign of the Crown; in a balcony over the large gateway which leads to the courtyard sit Dundas (left) and Pitt (right), much at their ease, facing each other in profile, regardless of the turmoil below. They are smoking and have foaming tankards marked with a crown; Dundas is in Highland dress, Pitt is dressed as an English farmer or drover. On the balcony is: 'Good Entertainment for Man and Beast'. Beneath the design is etched: '"Every Man has his Price", Sir Rt Walpole', and '"Sic itur ad astra"'."--British Museum online catalogue
