"The Princess of Wales and her suite in a carriage drawn by six horses arrive at the porte-cochère of the British Embassy in Vienna. At the gate and in front of the horses is a mounted groom or outrider blowing a trumpet, from which issue the words: 'Vite! Vite!! 7 Lits de Maitre--13-- de Domestique--!!' Facing him is a fat porter, who keeps one leaf of the gate shut, and answers: "Sein Excellenz ist nich zu haus--!!!" Over the archway are the Royal Arms, the lion (burlesqued) and unicorn look down scandalized at the carriage, in which the Princess turns to Pergami who sits on her right, saying, "This Palace will lodge us well Sir Bergamot." Her plump breasts are displayed, and she wears a turban with a jewelled aigrette. Bergami wears hussar uniform with a furred dolman, and a bunch of orders hanging from his tunic. Facing the Princess sits little Willy Austin (see British Museum Satires No. 12027) wearing a round peaked cap; a lady wearing a tasselled cap like a smoking-cap sits next him. On the box are a foreign servant in quasi-military uniform and cockaded top-hat and a turbaned negro, with two big pistols in his sash. The negro puts his arm across the other's shoulders; both grin, as do two negro servants seated in the rumble with drawn swords; these also wear turbans, and are armed with pistols. Two postilions, French in type, flourish their whips; they wear huge jack-boots and large plumed cocked hats; the spirited horses have received a sudden check. The door-panel of the carriage, an open barouche is covered with the Royal Arms with the Prince's feathers. A stout peasant woman and a little boy (left) watch the cavalcade with astonishment; two dogs bark. Part of the Embassy forms a background: two rows of windows, the lower ones heavily barred."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

A life-like 'Terpsichore' supports the drapery of the box, which is inscribed 'On the light fantastic toe'. The front of the box is decorated with fantastic dancing figures, including a Red Indian, a Harlequin, a Punch; some are in lines and dots (cf. No. 12955). The instruments are flutes, bagpipes, harp, violins, 'cello, oboe, French horn. On the right: [6] 'German Waltz', an ugly couple, her hands on his shoulders, his on her waist. [7] 'French Quadrille'.

"A satire on costume, showing the unsuitability of modern dress to the minuet. A grotesque man bends towards his partner, taking her left hand in his right. The other guests stand or sit. He has a large moustache, a shock of hair, high shirt-collar, short-waisted coat with long tails, and loose striped trousers, tied in above the ankle. His partner has short skirt hanging from just below the breast which she holds up by the hem; towering feathers rise from a wreath of flowers on her head. A man in back view (right) wears tight pantaloons tied below the calf, others wear loose trousers.

Abstract:
"British households are represented by large straw bee-hives; these are assailed by tax-collectors and their satellites who run through the air in a swarm. One hive is in the foreground (right), the two next are in the middle distance, with a line of little hives in the distance, curving to the left margin. John Bull, ragged but chubby, stands defiantly on the step of his hive, defending it with a stake shaped like a rough pitchfork and inscribed 'Prop of Reform'; with this he prods the foremost collector, who drops book and pen in dismay. Behind him in the doorway is his wife, brandishing a poker, while three ragged and terrified small children cluster round the door. Other tax-gatherers assail the upper part of the hive; one has made a hole in the straw and puts in his hand; he has already seized honey. Another man departs with chunks of honeycomb, but his coat-tails are clutched by a man who leans from a hole in the hive. Another collector runs through the air, laden with spoil. More of the swarm are still advancing, holding pen and book or paper. One, holding up a constable's staff, holds out a 'Warrant [of] Distress . . John Bull' [scarcely legible]; another has a huge book inscribed 'Poor's Rate'. Other books are inscribed 'Kings Tax' and 'Assess'd Taxes'. One man holds out a paper inscribed 'Snatch Broker & Sworn Appraiser'. The men recede in perspective towards the upper left corner of the design, from which the swarm is descending upon the hives. A tax-gatherer enters the door of the second hive, while another stands on the upper part nailing on it a placard: 'Kings Taxes'. In the foreground (right) beside the hive a broken cord drops from a clothes-prop weighted down with tattered garments. On the left is a smoking manure-heap inscribed 'Ministrial Dung-hill'; on this lies a paper, 'Prope[rty] Tax' [now removed, see British Museum Satires No. 12750, &c.], and from it grow toadstools inscribed 'Place, Pension', and 'Sinecure'."--British Museum online catalogue

"The Princess, in oriental dress, sits regally on a low settee, knees apart, left foot on a stool, with Pergami at her right hand, and others of her suite behind her. She addresses Metternich (right), pointing to Pergami, and saying: "Permit me Sir Prince, to present to you my sweet [scored through and replaced by] suite--" Pergami, bold, florid, and handsome, stands erect, right hand on his hip, holding his busby and the hilt of his sword. He wears hussar uniform as in British Museum Satires No. 12889, with spurred Hessian boots. Metternich, slim and elegant, wearing embroidered court dress with a sword, makes a courtier's bow, answering: "Your R--l H--s is really too Condescending?!" The Princess is a grotesque obese figure in Turkish trousers, short-waisted bodice grossly décolletée, Turkish slippers, and large turban with crescent and aigrette, wearing, like Pergami, a bunch of orders. At her right knee and between her and Metternich is little Willy Austin, cap in hand, and holding a riding-switch. He wears a short braided jacket with trousers, and a childish frill round the neck. Behind him is a stout lady-in-waiting (probably 'Countess' Oldi), oddly dressed, in round cap, décolletée high-waisted bodice and (apparently) breeches or trousers. Two gentlemen-in-waiting behind Pergami wear braided tunics with trousers gathered at the ankle. All the suite, including the boy, wear orders; the three men are whiskered and moustached. Along the wall forming a background are pictures illustrating the persons beneath. Behind Pergami is a prancing stallion with a girth inscribed 'Ich Dien: Cock horse a favourite Stallion.' Behind the Princess is 'A View in Wales', the frame decorated with the Prince's feathers: a mountainous sea-shore with goats. Behind the boy is a scraggy mule with a plume of ostrich feathers, and its tail decorated with ribbons. At its feet 'Black-heath' (see British Museum Satires No. 12027): This is 'Billy A-- favourite Mule--!!!' Above Metternich is the whole length portrait of a courtier, cocked hat in hand: 'Met--her--nick--!!'"--British Museum online catalogue
