- "An imitation of BMSat 8913, by Woodward. A fat parson sits drinking beside a small round table. His face is fiery and carbuncled. He wears gown and bands, with unbuttoned waistcoast, and ungartered stocking; his wig is back to front. Opposite him, on a round stool sits Care, a naked man, grotesque, aged, emaciated, with a scraggy beard and long grey hair, and talons on hands and feet; he registers gloomy terror. The parson, with a contemptuous smile, snaps his fingers at Care. On the table are decanter, pipe, tobacco-box, and lemon. On the wall (left) is a 'List of the Tythes for the Parish of Guttledown'. A patterned carpet completes the design. An illustration of the song (illustrated also by R. Cruikshank in 'The Universal Songster', ii, 1826, p. 129)."--British Museum online catalogue.

He wears a round hat, a spencer over his coat and spurred top-boots, a stick in his (gloved) left hand; an expressive glove issues from his coat pocket. The objects at which he gazes are on a cloth-covered table. In the centre is a bust of 'Lais', the head that of Lady Hamilton, with fashionably dressed hair, but with nose, mouth, and chin broken away. Next it is a nude and headless Bacchante holding up a bunch of grapes (this was one of his wife's famous attitudes). Behind is a term with the head of a bull inscribed 'APIS'. Other objects are a weeping Cupid with a broken arrow, a grotesque goblet, a cracked chamber-pot on which nude figures dance. Against the wall (right) stands a mummy-like figure of 'MIDAS', with ass's ears. Other grotesque and broken objects stand on the carpet. On the wall are four pictures (left to right): 'Cleopatra', Lady Hamilton, three-quarter length, indecently décolletée and holding a bottle of 'Gin'; 'Mark Antony', Nelson, three-quarter length, a sea-fight in the background; a volcano in eruption; 'Claudius', a profile half length of Hamilton turning his back on the other pictures, the frame decorated with a stag's head."--British Museum online catalogue.
