"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

A rider sits stiffly on a misshapen horse that wears blinkers. The rider's stirrups almost touch the ground, and his body and legs form a quasi-vertical line from head to heels. Above his hat is a dotted half circle labeled '90 degrees'. On the right in the middle distance another horse gallops out of control of its rider while further on top a hill in the distance is St. Paul's Cathedral and surrounding buildings

Abstract:
"Scene in a handsomely furnished dining-room, probably in a club. The table is close to the large fireplace (right). The diners, eight elderly men, rise from their chairs to gaze in angry dismay at a calamity caused by a dog who has tripped up a servant in the doorway, making him spill the contents of a dish, while the man immediately behind him lets the contents of a tureen pour out. A third (left), gaping at the accident while drawing the cork of a bottle of 'Spruce Beer', lets the contents squirt at his fellow servants. Two of the 'epicures' grasp knife and fork, two have napkins tucked under the chin, one is in military uniform, two seem to be parsons. The room is pillared, with a handsome moulded ceiling and elaborate hanging candelabrum. On the chimney-piece tankards and goblets flank the squatting figure of a Chinese glutton. Above it is a large mirror in a heavy carved frame. Over the door is a picture of gormandizing monks."--British Museum online catalogue

"An obese old doctor sits between Mrs Clarke and a thin elderly officer (right), chapeau-bras, sitting grotesquely expectant on the edge of his Easy Chair. The doctor puts a money-bag inscribed 800 into the dress which Mrs. Clarke holds up to receive it, pointing to the officer, one Captain Tuck. From his pocket hangs a paper Doctor Doneover [Donovan] Agent to Old Nick-Deanery 2000, Commissary 1000, Majority 800 Mrs. Clarke (left) sits in a Ricketty Chair; its seat is Morocco Bottom [an allusion to Taylor, see No. 11218]; under her feet are three papers: My admirable angel My Dear dear pretty little darling; My Love my Life I cannot exist without you; Gazzette. She is one of Rowlandson's pretty meretricious women, and does not resemble Mrs. Clarke. Behind her is a curtained bed, its head inscribed Boudoir; above this hangs a bust profile portrait of Fredirick 2 beneath which a paper is pinned up: List of Candidates for Promotion Sums offered Clav . . . [Clavering, see No. 11247] 2000, Dow. [Dowler, see No 11253]-800, OM [O'Meara, see No. 11258] 300 .. . 200. Beside the bed is an ornate table with decanters and glass, and a paper: Rogues all sing tanta-ra-ra-Blood an Thunder when Whore and Rogue are rent asunder. On the floor is a book, Mrs Clarks Ledger, on which are papers spiked on a file: Promotions paid for. Two quotations from Gay's 'Beggars Opera' complete the design. Above the doctor's head, on a large scroll, are eight lines beginning:"Tis Woman that seduces all mankind, Under Tuck's chair is a paper: If you mention vice or bribe, Tis so pat to all the tribe-each cries that was levelled at me."--British Museum online catalogue
