Abstract:
"Two-part satire on the resignation of Lord Bute, April 1763. On the left is a scene of execution, headed "Excise", with Bute, identified by his plaid waistcoat, hanging from an apple tree (referring to the Cider Bill), a devil sitting on the branch above him wears a large boot (a pun on Bute) on one leg, the other ending in a claw; two men below exult. In the centre a man (evidently another representation of Bute as he wears a large boot on one leg and on the other leg wears a garter lettered "Honi ..." as in the scene on the right) lies across a fire while another pumps a pair of bellows to fan the flames; three farmers standing behind the fire and another to the right rejoice at Bute's downfall. On the right, another devil reciting the proverb, "Harm watch, Harm catch", one leg ending in a hammer, sits on top of a gallows from which hangs a fox (Henry Fox) wighted down by money bags tied around his neck. On the right is a scene set in a grand interior, headed "Resignation, in which Princess Augusta sprawls weeping in a chair her breasts partly exposed while a devil delves into Bute's breeches as he drags him through a door through which flames and smoke can be seen, the Duke of Cumberland brandishes a sword in his right hand and pushes Bute with his left; he is encouraged by a nephew, Edward, Duke of York, at lower right, a lusty goat, one of whose hands is a claw, looks on with pleasure."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A sequel to British Museum Satires No. 13895. The Queen has reached the top of the column; she is blindfolded and wears a fool's cap; but the column is shattered by the radicals, and she falls backwards, dropping sceptre and firebrand. The pedestal tilts, the column is broken in three, and the summit is being hauled down by a rope tugged at by a cheering mob of radicals with pikes. Flames and towering clouds of smoke ascend from a large fire at its base, on which a Bible inscribed 'I H S' and books of 'Laws' and 'Religion' are burning. The Black Dwarf (Wooler, see British Museum Satires No. 12988), kneeling, blows it with bellows. Crown, Bible, and cushion fall from the column. Hunt cheers the catastrophe, waving his cap, as do others. There is a tricolour banner topped by a skull and inscribed 'Blood & Plunder'. Cobbett (?) is now on the top of the Queen's ladder, with (?) Wood who cheers from a lower rung."--British Museum online catalogue
