The dragon carries the infant Prince of Wales holding a windmill (5) held by Father Petre (6). The lion rides over fallen monks and Jesuits (8) and two decapitated heads of the dragon. In the centre background William is received by English notables (9). To left, James (10) departs in a small boat from a shore with a ruined church; to right; he is received by Louis XIV (11), together with Mary of Modena and the infant Prince of Wales.

"A water-side scene with a broken tree (right) in the middle distance. A stork stands with an eel in its mouth looking down at a duck; a tortoise walks off. 'Jamais les Droits Seigneuriaux n'ont mieuxêté administré que depuis que la bassecour s'en mêle. 'Pourquoi ce jeune arbrisseau meurt-il? . . . On a coupé ses racines; il aurait pu devenir trop haut.

"A skeleton (cf. BMSat 8825), representing the reorganized Dutch army, stands on a rectangular pedestal, inscribed 'De \ niewwe \ orga= \ nio \ satie. \ 1795. \ Het Ith Jaar der \ Batavsche Vryhyd'. It wears a cocked hat and short military coat (showing its ribs - 'un bel uniforme à la Française'), and smokes a pipe. Two French officers are on the left, one turns his back on the skeleton and rides his cane, like a hobby horse, his sabre against his shoulder. The other holds up an admonishing arm towards two dejected Dutch officers of unmilitary appearance: one appears to be a member of the National Guard, the other, a hunch-back, wearing jackboots and sword but leaning decrepitly on a cane, tramples on 'Traité sur l'honeur Milita[ire]'. He is 'General S.' Text, 'Jeremiah', xlviii. 14."--British Museum online catalogue

"The five members are somnolent. One stands with closed eyes, a lighted candle in each hand, with one of which he negligently sets fire to the wig of a member asleep in his chair (left). The candlesticks are inscribed 'P. V.O.' (? Prins van Oranje). Behind and on the right two sit asleep at a table on which are glasses, a tall bottle of 'Vaderlander Schied[am]', and a pipe. On the ground behind, a man lies face downwards, a glass clasped in his hand. On the floor are a paper headed 'Rotterdam' and a decapitated cock, so dealt with to prevent the crowing of the vigilant bird, which might have disturbed them. Text, 'Isaiah', xxix. 10."--British Museum online catalogue

"Four grotesque men, all crippled or deformed, are in a row before a set of druggist's shelves headed 'Staats Apotheek'. Those on the extreme left and right stand, the others sit. A knock-kneed hunchback (left), smoking a long pipe, the smoke inscribed 'Hellebr . . .', holds a paper: 'Recipe'. A ragged and lame National Guard picks the pocket of his neighbour. Above the shelves, and forming the apex of the design, a fury, Discord, with snaky locks, leans from clouds, holding a flaming sword and looking down threateningly at the conference. On the top shelf are a 'Guillotine' and a bull, 'Phalaris', a block inscribed 'Menschen lief de' next a gallows, a demon. Below are bottles: 'Quint Ess: de Robespierr, Sel de Marat, Recipes en Assignaten [see British Museum Satires No. 8849], Rotten gift [poison for mice], Alb: Graec:' On the wall hang a sword and shackles.

"Seven men, closely grouped, fight and scuffle confusedly. On the ground (left) are the arrows of the seven United Provinces, broken and separated, a cat plays with the ribbon which binds them (the symbolical bond of union, cf. BMSat 5712). A National Guard has taken one of the arrows and drives it into the head of a man whose eye he tries to gouge out, and who grasps another antagonist by the wig. One raises a chair to smite, another empties a wine-bottle on an opponent."--British Museum online catalogue

"Two French officers stand behind three Dutchmen: one looking into a peep-show (left) inscribed 'L'Armée du Prince Frederic d'Orange', the other two seated in arm-chairs. One of the latter (centre) holds up his hands in pleased surprise; he looks through spectacles held by one Frenchman while the other is about to put a net over his face. The other (right) looks through a telescope; his shrivelled legs are in boots which may conceal cloven hoofs; he wears a cocked hat. On the ground is a torn paper, 'Garantie du Stadhouderat'; a pair of scissors grips the seal which is about to be cut off. Behind it a tiny demon digs with a spade.
