- Abstract:
- "Hastings stands in a two-wheeled cart under a gibbet. Fox places the rope round his neck; Burke also stands in the cart dressed as a parson, in a long gown and bands, holding an open book. Sheridan (right) pushes the cart from behind, looking at North (left) who holds the horse's head. Large scrolls issue from the mouths of all five and are an important part of the design: Hastings says, "Walpole said every Man had his Price but Alass! I never could find out any of your Prices." Burke says "A Poor Atonement this for Millions &c." Fox says "A Poor Atonement do you call it Ned! Egad it would have been adevil of a Job for me, if my F------r had made such an atonement for------Unaccounted Millions." (Lord Holland was called in a City Address to the King 'the public defaulter of unaccounted millions'. North says, "Dont you remember Sheri------that my now Rt Honble Friend often threat'ned to bring me to this or the Block". Sheridan answers, "Psha Fred - you know that was only to frighten you from your Station - &c - but drive on, or our friend Edmund will stand preaching here all day.""--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "Hastings stands holding one end of a large pie in his left hand; in his right he raises a knife to cut the pie. On the left are Managers of his impeachment; on the right are Thurlow and the Devil: both drag at Hastings and at the pie, but the latter party appear to be gaining. Small demons or imps emerge from the pie which personifies Impey. Burke clutches Hastings's coat and right arm; a scroll issuing from his mouth extends above his assistants and is inscribed 'For the sake of Injured Millions, I and my worthy Friends and Colleagues demand these Wretches as Victims to Publick Justice'. Fox clutches Burke, another man (? Sheridan) clutches Fox, his arm being linked in that of the man (? Windham) on the extreme left. A fifth man in back view clutches with both hands at the pie; a paper protrudes from his pocket inscribed 'Sr Elijah's Impeachment', showing that he is Sir Gilbert Elliot who was entrusted with the case against Impey. Thurlow drags at Hastings's left arm and clutches two large money-bags; a scroll issues from his mouth, forming a pendant to that of Burke: 'And - for the sake of Consigned Millions, I - with the assistance of my old Friend and Colleague here am resolved to protect these worthy Gentlemen'. He wears his Chancellor's wig and gown; one hairy leg terminates in a cloven hoof. The Devil clutches Hastings's wrist and the pie; he is a ferocious muscular creature with webbed wings and scaly barbed tail. Hastings as usual wears oriental dress with a jewelled turban."--British Museum online catalogue
