"Mack (left), followed by his generals, prostrates himself, grovelling before three French Grenadiers (right), each holding a large sack inscribed '20 Million Livres'. Mack throws down his sword and two keys labelled 'Keys of Ulm'; beside him are a standard with the Habsburg eagle, a bundle of muskets, and a paper: 'Articles to be deliver 'd up - I. Field Marshall 8 - Generals in Chief 7 - Lieutn Generals 36 Thousand Soldiers - 80 Pieces of Cannon - 50 Stand of Colours 100000 Pounds of Powder 4000 Cannon Ball.' Napoleon, very small, is perched on a large drum on which is an imperial crown and the letter 'N'. He points with his sabre to Mack, with the left hand to his three Grenadiers, saying, "There's your Price! There's Ten Millions! - Twenty!! - it is not in my Army alone, that my rescources of Conquering consists!! - I hate Victory obtain'd by effusion of Blood!" Mack answers, his eyes on a money-bag, " - and so do I too! - what signifies Fighting when we can settle it in a Safer way!!!" His pigtail flies upwards, showing the violence of his obeisance; so do those of the generals who follow him. Behind them are the towers of a high fortress bristling with guns; their seeming impregnability points the satire. Behind Napoleon and facing the spectator are serried ranks of French grenadiers standing at attention; they have tricolour flags inscribed: 'Vive I'Empereur Napoleon'; 'Vive Buonaparte'; 'la Victoire ou la Mort'."--British Museum online catalogue

"Sheridan, as Punch, grotesquely caricatured, stands on a platform, above the heads of a cheering crowd, blowing soap-bubbles. Clusters of soap-suds fall from the pipe, and from it rises an oval containing a figure of Young Roscius, in Highland dress as Douglas in Home's play. The boy, breathing fire, holds out a coral and bells, striding arrogantly over decollated heads inscribed 'Exit Garrick - Kemble - Cooke'. Other actors, freely indicated, stagger back from the young conqueror, over whose head are the words 'Veni. Vidi Vici.' Sheridan's pipe is irradiated against a dark sky. From the pipe, and a source of some of the rays, project little trumpets with banners inscribed respectively: 'Times', 'Morning Chronicle', 'True Briton', 'Sunday Observer', 'Herald'. From each issue the words (sometimes repeated): 'Roscius!' followed sometimes by faintly-drawn ciphers. Sheridan gazes up at his huge bubble. He is bloated and pimpled; his head sunk between hump and paunch. His dress is striped, his contour defined by close-set buttons, ound his paunch is twisted a tricolour sash; a tricolour cockade decorates is hat, which has a conical crown, curved brim, and erect feather. His pocket angs inside out, patched and empty. The cheering crowd (r.) fling coins to the platform, on which lie two pamphlets: 'Account of the Profits of the Bubble' and 'Petition of the Renters for a Share in the profits of the Bubble'. Behind Sheridan lies the dog, 'Carlo', hero of 'The Caravan', see BMSat 10172, &c. Beside Carlo is a padlocked money-box: 'Drury Lane Strong Box'. These are under a table at the back of the stage. On the table is a barber's bowl, filled cubbies issuing from a pipe; the largest is inscribed 'Forty Thieves'; under the bowl is a paper: 'Materials for bran-New Pantomimes for Johnny Bull's Amusement'. Beside the bowl is a bottle labelled 'To be repeated the first opportunity', in whose neck is a funnel inscribed 'Bottle Conjurer', which is filled by a little fat man who grasps his paunch. The back of the stage is bordered by a curtain from which project over the table a sign and a banner. On the former is a dog with the inscription: 'The Wonderful Red Lion, of surpassing Abilities - to be seen within.' On the banner: 'In a few Days, will be Perfom'd - a new Comic Divertisment, called The Bubble-burst, accompanied bv Laughing Song by John Bull.' ..."--British Museum online catalogue
