"The Queen stands full face, at the base of a pillar (right), holding up a scroll: 'Firm in my Innocence and secure of my Peoples Love, I smile at my Enemies impotent attempts to injure me, And Ride Secure Amid The Storm.' In her left hand is a rolled document: 'Defence'. She wears a feathered hat and an ermine-bordered robe over her dress. The pillar, part only being within the design, is wreathed with olive alternately with bands on each curve of which is inscribed one of the places making addresses to her: 'City of Londo[n]', 'City of West[minster]', 'Southwar[k]', 'County of Midd[lesex]'. On the base is an irradiated sun in a laurel wreath. Beside the Queen (left) is a pile of cylindrical documents, each inscribed 'Address'.

"A grotesque procession of brass-founders (braziers), carrying banners and emblems of brass on poles, burlesquing a Roman triumph. They march (right to left) past a sign-post pointing (left) 'To B--burgh House' and (right) 'To Turnham Green'. All wear loose jack-boots, spurred, and on each man's head is a brass utensil (or helmet), as made by the trade, and each carries a dish-cover (or shield) inscribed 'C R'. Many wear makeshift breastplates. They wear ragged breeches, some partly covered by strips of metal on the thigh, in imitation of armour. The two goose-stepping leaders blow coach-horns to which banners are attached, inscribed 'Blow Braziers Blow thy Sounding Horns'; their head-dress is a candlestick containing a tall lighted candle. They are followed by two trumpeters, with teakettles on their heads. Next comes a tall drummer, his drum inscribed 'Hum Drum', using ladles for drumsticks and with a coal-scuttle-helmet. Prominent among their trophies are pikes, to which banners are attached, each decorated by a large white favour. The first banner is inscribed 'Hail Star of Como [see British Museum Satires No. 13857] Brass is a Joke to thee.' Beside this, supported on a pole, is a model of a man (Bergami) on a galloping horse inscribed 'Courier'. A pair of breeches hangs from a pike. Various objects are surmounted by a piece of drapery inscribed 'Presents for Carey', and by a banner inscribed 'Men of Metal'; they include a bull, a goat, a stag's head, and a model of a Turk dancing inscribed 'Dimma Dimma'. Behind these is an owl and, beside a banner inscribed 'Pam [knave of clubs] & Qu--n for ever', is a model of Bergami carrying the Queen on his back. A figure of Harlequin is inscribed 'B B' [Bartolomeo Bergami]. Drapery is inscribed 'Presents for Bat' [Bartolommeo]; beside this is a bust of Alderman Wood. 'Furniture for the Barona' is on a banner flying over a woman (three-quarter length) wearing a triple fool's cap and emerging from a stand: 'Automaton Pitch'. A figure of 'Columbine' capers awkwardly. The interstices among these objects are filled with household utensils, &c., held high, tongs, poker, shovel, &c. Below the design: '"Why look'ye Mrs Brasier!" I dont know in what quantities you sell brass "at" Como"--But when you come "from" abroad, & ask a thinking people "to believe Black is White--D . . . me but your'e a Wholesale Dealer!!!--John Bull.""--British Museum online catalogue
