- "Melville, in Highland dress (left), stoops, holding open a sack from which issues an endless procession of pigmy Scots, receding in perspective to disappear under a high Gothic doorway, inscribed 'Saint Stephens'. The little Scots march out of the bag like an army of occupation, with an eager, hungry air. Some wear plain, others feathered, bonnets; one has bagpipes under his arm, another a broad-sword. John Bull (right), a yokel in shirt and breeches, holding a cudgel, looks down at them, saying, "Dang it, what a swarm of them there be - enough to cause a famine in any christian country." Melville says: "There ye are my bonny Lads - mak the best o' your way the door is open - and leave a Scotsman alaine to stick in a place gin he once gains an entrance!" Saint Stephens, the House of Commons, is between a high crenellated wall (right) and the façade of a neo-Gothic building with crenellated roof, oriel windows above an arcade, and turrets."--British Museum online catalogue, description of alternate state
