"Three vignetted designs, one above the other. [1] 'Dosing'. A couple in a sparsely furnished room sleep back to back in upright chairs, the woman with a fixed frown, and folded arms, her feet on the fender (right); the man snoring with head thrown back, one leg on a chair. An infant sleeps in a cradle (left), napkins dry before the fire. Empty plates, &c. cover the table. A cat (right) and dog (left) sleep beside their respective patrons. [2] 'Draming'. In a ramshackle garret a cobbler and his wife tipsily drink gin; he attempts to fill a glass, she holds out hers. A screaming and neglected infant lies on her lap; a bare-footed child stands by a table. All are ragged and ill-shod. The tools of the man's trade are in the room, bare except for table, empty tankard, and a bed turned up against the wall and covered with patchwork. [3] 'Drowning'. A man struggles in the water, screaming and desperately raising arms and legs towards a watchman, who leans over a rail bordering a canal or riverside terrace of houses, shouting unhelpfully, springing his rattle, and holding up his lantern. Other watchmen run up."--British Museum online catalogue
