Abstract:
A broadside, anti-Jacobite, anti-Catholic and anti-French. The illustration portrays a coat of arms, flanked by a priest and a Highlander; below the etching in letterpress are three columns beginning with the text: "The explanation." The lilies of the French Royal arms changed to upside down frogs and the legitimacy of the Stewart line questioned by the inclusion of the bed-pan child over the priest's shoulder. The text begins: "The three toads are the French Old Coat of Arms, their heads downward, in a sable fields; the coat revers'd denotes treason in perfection. The supporters are a Popish priest on one side in his habit, with a warming-pan on his shoulder, with the lid open and a young child in it. In his right hand is a bloody pen-knife in a posture ready privately to execute the cruelty their religion teaches them to exercise on Protestants ...
