"Heading to (printed) verses 'Sung, with great Applause, by Mr. Henry Johnston, in Dublin, Cork, &c. &c.' A pedlar with a wooden leg stands at a street corner, singing, a bottle of 'Irish Whisky' in his left hand, another bottle in his coat-pocket. His open box is slung from his neck, showing a watch, gloves, scissors, seals, watch-keys, ribbons, &c. On the right is a barber's shop: 'T. Trim Hair . . .' with a (torn) paper-covered lamp (as in No. 7605) inscribed: 'Shave well for Penny cut for 2 . . .' In the room above a tailor holding shears and iron looks from the window; a projecting sign is inscribed 'Sam Shred Taylor'. On the pavement outside are a fat doctor, a man leading an ass with paniers, and shouting his wares, a barrister addressing a burly man with a staff. On the opposite side of the road is a puppet-show in the form of a castle, into which children are peeping. A baker's man walks past with a board on his head on which is a pie. The last of six verses: Taylors cabbage all your cloth, Shins of beef are very tough. Flummery is just like froth Mrs. Clarke is up to snuff. Jolly tars are fond of fun, "God save the king", we'll nobly shout. And now, good folks, my song is done, Nobody knows what 'twas about. Right fol de riddle del, &c."--British Museum online catalogue

The print celebrates the British defeat of the French and Spanish in the Battle of the First of June 1794 under the command of Admiral Richard Howe. A British sailor stands on a wharf in front a pub, silhouetted by two British flags; he is grinning at the viewer as he holds his prize money in one hand and bludgeon and a roll of paper in the other. Beside him a woman leans in at the window of the pub as a man with a clay pipe in his mouth hands her a bowl of punch; a large dog rests beneath the window at her feet. Several patriotic signs are posted over the pub walls. In the background a man-of-war lies at anchor, and a row boat with several sailors heads towards shore
