Abstract:
"Eight pairs of people, arranged in two rows, misunderstand each other owing to mispronunciation, &c. 'I Suit'. A master tells a man-servant: "... you will not shoot me." '2 Heat.' A mistress tells her maid the soup is cold, and desires her to eat it directly. '3 Sue.' A man wearing tattered shoes says he will be "shoed". '4 Martyr.' A fat 'cit' tells a grenadier he has been "a Marcher to the cause". '5 Air.' A fat man tells a sporting friend he will "take the Hare". '6 Rise.' One man says "That it was - which gave Rise to it." The other answers ". . . Rice is a very good substitute" (i.e. for flour, cf. BMSat 9545, &c). '7 Chart.' A man desires a yokel to bring the "Cart" into the parlour. '8.' An elderly courtier tells his loutish footman to say he is "gone to Court". The man answers ". . . why the girls will laugh at you." Similar in character to BMSat 8541, &c, and perhaps belonging to the same set."--British Museum online catalogue

"Bonaparte stands on the sea-shore, about to embark (on 23 Aug. 1799) in a boat (left) which will take him to a ship in full sail (the 'Muiron'). He looks with a sly leer to the right, where a little band of ragged and emaciated French soldiers hurry towards him making gestures of dismay. He wears the embroidered fastened coat or tunic with a sash of authentic portraits, without a hat; he points up towards a vision in the sky surrounded by massive clouds of a sceptre and imperial crown superimposed on the revolutionary fasces and axe. Above the general flies a figure of Fame, smiling sardonically and pointing down derisively. Two soldiers in cocked hats who stand in the boat waiting for Bonaparte to embark greedily hug large money-bags. A plank slants from the boat to the shore. The boat has a figure-head composed of two heads facing opposite ways wearing a single coronet. Behind the French troops is a small encampment with tricolour tents and flags. Behind this stretches a vast Turkish camp with crescent flags."--British Museum online catalogue
