Heading to a printed broadside in support of Queen Caroline, with a depiction of the Queen in the upper left, riding in a chariot pulled by a lion under a banner reading "Innocence and Triumph." The Italian witnesses against her are being led in chains to the gallows, the man at the back of the line remaking "This is past a joke O! Majocc"; a hangman smoking a pipe awaits them at the top of a ladder, noose in hand. Three figures with bags over their heads are already hanging, with a fourth hanged figure being fed by a devil with a pitchfork into the flaming mouth of a demon on the right, a "Green Bag" falling into the flames next to him. Another victim is skewered by a second devil standing inside the demon's mouth; the words "Milan Commission Receiving Office" are written amid the flames. A John Bull figure with a walking stick watches the scene from the right, remarking: "Well now if this h'ant a sight that pleases John Bull - Go & be hang'd to ye you Italian scoundels - come to swear an innocent womans life away." In the center foreground, a dog tears at a second "Green Bag" with its mouth

"Queen Caroline as Lucifera sits in a coach made up of objects which figured in the evidence against her. The driver is Bergami, whip in hand (thus representing Satan) on a high box seat; he turns to hand a bottle of wine to the Queen who holds a sack inscribed '50,000' [see British Museum Satires No. 14145]. The beam or chassis is a cannon (see British Museum Satires No. 13850), on this rests the body of the open coach, the front part being the prow of a boat (the polacca, see British Museum Satires No. 13818), the centre part a tub, representing the bath, see British Museum Satires No. 13819, the back part, half of the body of a travelling-coach, is surmounted by half a conical tent (see British Museum Satires No. 13818), the whole making a canopy over the Queen. On the tub-section a coat-of-arms is represented by a diamond-shape blank (hatchment-wise) with two supporters, Bergami and the Devil. Motto: 'Ama et Aude'. The six animals harnessed single file and their riders are adapted from the 'Faerie Queene', relevant quotations being etched below, in eight compartments. The procession advances from the right, down a slope towards a slough, on the verge of which the leading animal, an ass, has fallen, throwing its rider, Alderman Wood in his livery gown, who has dropped two large stacks of papers: 'Addresses ready made' [cf. British Museum Satires No. 14119] and 'Plate Subscription' [see British Museum Satires No. 14196]. Below: 'Ignorance Might seem the Wain was very Evil led, When such an One had guiding of the way, That knew not whether right he went or else astray.--' [I, iv. 19.] [He replaces the 'Idlenesse' of the original.] The next four carry banners, each topped by a bonnet rouge; the leader is Dr. Parr on a large pig, as 'Gluttony the second of the crew'. He smokes his accustomed pipe, holds an open book; on his banner is 'Un-Sunned Snow' [see British Museum Satires No. 13975]. Below: 'And next to him rode loathsome Gluttony, deformed Creature, on a filthy Swine' [ibid. 21]. Next, on a goat, is Lord Grey, holding a banner inscribed 'Purity' and a staff topped by a burning heart. He wears a garland of white roses over his shoulder. Below: '--Sir G Rat-- In a Green Gown he cloathed was full fair, And in his hand a burning heart he bare' [ibid. 25]. (He is the 'lustfull Lechery' of the original.) He is followed by Brougham riding a wolf (fifth in the original), in wig and gown, holding a broom and a banner inscribed 'Innocence'. Below: 'And next to him malicious Envy rode upon a ravenous Wolf .....He doth backbite and spitefull poison spews' [ibid. 30, 32]. Next (last in the original), riding a fierce lion, is Burdett wearing makeshift and partial armour, a small red cap, and a tricolour sash; he holds up a firebrand and a red flag inscribed 'Victory or Death' [cf. Hunt's motto in 1819, see British Museum Satires No. 13279]. Below: 'And him beside ride fierce revenging Wrath, Upon a Lion loath for to be led, And in his hand a burning brand he hath, The which he brandisheth about his head' [ibid. 33]. Last (fourth in the original) a stout man mounted on a camel holds before him a copy of 'The Times', from a stack of the papers on his knee. He wears an apron with rolled-up shirt-sleeves (like a pressman) and top-boots, and is clearly Barnes (a fair portrait). Large saddle-bags are inscribed 'Hush Money, Pub[lic] Money', and '£500 Weekly'. Below: 'And greedy Avarice next him did ride, Upon a Camel, loaded all with Gold For of his wicked Pelf his God he made, And unto Hell himself for money Sold' [ibid. 27]. The last two inscriptions (right) describe Bergami and the Queen: 'And after all upon the waggon beam Rode Satan with a smarting Whip in hand, With which he forward lashed the lazy Team, As oft as Ignorance ['Slowth' in original] in the Mire did stand [ibid. 36]. So forth She comes and to her coach does climb [ibid. 17] The which was drawn by six unequal Beasts, On which her six sage Counsellors did ride' [ibid. 18].

"A fantastic and complicated design. Queen Caroline leans back in an arm-chair, pen in hand, staring as if at a vision, her black locks flying outwards and upwards. Above her head, as if sprung from it, is an owl with the cross of the Order of St. Caroline (see British Museum Satires No. 13810) in its beak, and on its head a fool's cap with bells. She wears a décolletée dress with voluminous gathered trousers, as in many prints; her right foot is placed regally on a footstool. Her right arm rests on a table and on the paper on which she writes: To the King. She listens to a serpent held up by Dr. Parr, brandyfaced and naked except for his wig, one of several figures pressing round her, partly obscured by shadow. Lieut. Hownam looks over her right shoulder, two other faces are partly hidden, one may be Flinn, the other resembles Burdett. The aquiline profile of Hobhouse is behind Parr. On the right stands a broom, supporting a wig and gown (Brougham); another wig and gown beside it must indicate Denman; both are in back view. On the left and in the foreground stands Wood, as a devil, hairy and naked except for a furred gown, symbol of the alderman. He turns towards her, holding a baton, topped by a little cap of Liberty, and strings attached to two tiny processions: a state-coach (the Queen's) drawn by four horses and a band of armoured men on horseback, with banners, one inscribed Brass [the braziers' procession, see British Museum Satires No. 14119]. They are surrounded by clouds of dust. Over his shoulder look Cobbett, wearing a red cap with tricolour cockade and brandishing a bone (Paine's, see British Museum Satires No. 13525). To left and right of these advisers are evil gangs (cf. British Museum Satires No. 14194): a procession (left) of men with tall staves or pikes topped by caps of Liberty, and with a tricolour banner inscribed No Church no King no Constitution Universal Suffrage & Annual Plunder for ever. They wave their hats and cheer; their leader wears an apron. Above them floats a figure of Justice holding scales and a crown. Behind on the right naked arms raise firebrands, fanatical faces loom from the shadow; one at least has the snaky locks of Discord. The ornate round table at which the Queen writes is piled with boxes; on the largest, inscribed Secrets of the Baron, stands a small lifelike image of Bergami dressed as a courier. Other objects are a wallet from which projects a paper: 50,000 Per Ann [see British Museum Satires No. 14145], a vase of flowers, a decanter labelled (punningly) Tent [see British Museum Satires No. 13818]. On the floor are two figurines, one in back view, the other of Mahomet dancing (see British Museum Satires No. 13929). At the Queen's feet are her much-feathered four-cornered cap, and papers, one headed My dear Ca . . . and signed BB [Bartolomeo Bergami], the other beginning My dear C and signed Mat. [Wood]. By the broom are bulky bundles of papers: Brooming Correspondence and Defence of Moth[er Red Cap, see British Museum Satires No. 13975]. The owl is the base of an irregular inverted cone, formed of cloud-borne objects from the Queen's head. These are: Cobbets Register, The Times (see British Museum Satires No. 13968), The Champion (see British Museum Satires No. 13677), realistically depicted; three conical caps of Liberty with tricolour cockades inscribed respectively Bat, Cat, Mat [for Bergami, the Queen, and Wood; the title of a print, see British Museum Satires No. 14206 [23]]; Letters to Watch Makers [of] Coventry C B, over which hangs a watch and chain. Two large sketch-books, open: [1] Journal of a Tour to Jerusalem [see British Museum Satires No. 13918, &c.] with a view of a large mosque inscribed Temple of Solomon C.B del. [2] [Mem]oranda of the [Vi]lla d Este, facing a view of a large lake-side villa (see British Museum Satires No. 13857); this partly covers a third sketch: [Bucki]ngham House [the Queen's House as in British Museum Satires No. 14175]. Three large bundles of letters: Letters to the Baron [Bergami]; Wooden Headed Addresses Below Par; Answers to Addresses above Par [i.e. composed by Parr, see British Museum Satires No. 13934]. In a picture of a royal coach drawn by six horses and with three footmen behind the tiny passenger seems to be the Queen. Next this along the upper edge of the cone are pieces of plate decorated with a crown: urn, salver, goblet, candlestick, spoons, &c, with a paper: Plate Subscription.."--British Museum online catalogue
