"Below the title: " To pack up her tatters and follow the Drum. Soldiers and their wives walk in single file across a stream under trees. All except for the only officer are good-looking. The procession moves irregularly from right to left, receding in perspective. In the stream (left) are two soldiers carrying their wives on their shoulders; the second carries also kettle, frying-pan, and saucepan slung from his musket; the woman has two infants tied to her shoulders. They are followed by a young woman carrying three children on her back, her petticoats raised almost to the waist. On the brink of the stream (right) is a drummer bent under a big drum and with a sword under his arm. A soldier follows, heavily burdened with musket, knapsack, inscribed Old Buffs, rolled cloak, bottle, &c., and a pouch from which hangs the head of a goose. He looks behind him at a buxom woman carrying two lusty children, and with petticoats kilted high above bare legs and tattered shoes. Last walks a woman carrying on her shoulders an ugly officer wearing plumed bicorne and gorget. The soldiers wear plumed shakos and long gaiters."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Napoleon and Marie Louise are awkwardly seated on a throne (right) watching a comet representing the King of Rome, while the child's gouvernante proudly holds him up to gaze at the phenomenon through a telescope. The comet is a disk containing a naked child wearing a cocked hat, and holding a bowl; a gallic cock stands on his posterior, from which the comet's tail issues, reaching the real child. Five grotesque and elderly Frenchmen kneel with gestures of adoration (left); one kisses the toe which the Empress holds out. They have plans of the heavens; on the ground beside them is a plan showing the child-comet surrounded by stars and a waning moon. Napoleon wears a plumed bicorne and Hessian boots; he looks through a telescope, seated on the edge of the throne, right leg raised and resting on Marie Louise. The King of Rome, who as usual has his father's features (see British Museum Satires No. 11719), wears a similar hat and a little shirt. His gouvernante, Mme de Montesquiou, is dressed as nourrice rather than court lady. The throne is surrounded by draperies supported on pillars; it is surmounted by the iron crown of Italy and the back and arms are formed of carved eagles."--British Museum online catalogue

A dinner of mostly elderly men has dissolved into a brawl with wigs flying in every direction as they pummel each other with their fists or any tool at hand. In the center a man crawls on his hands and knees, blood pouring from both nostrils, his opponent ready to land him another blow. The one young man of the party dances merrily on top of the table flourishing a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other as the dinnerware scatters in every direction

"An aged surgeon leans over a bag of instruments on a table (right), selecting a knife; he wears an old-fashioned wig, hat, coat, &c.

In an open cupboard stands a skeleton (left). On the wall is a notice: 'A Course of Anatomical Lectures accompanied with Dissections will be delivered tommorrow Even[ing] by Professer Sawbone.' [An early use of the word 'Sawbone'. Partridge gives the date as from c. 1835, citing Sam Weller in 'Pickwick' (1837).] Two lighted candles stand on the table.

A makeshift curtain hangs across a casement window (left). On a chair by the bed (right) is a punch-bowl.
