"John Bull, as a burly and ugly sailor, sits enthroned (right), listening to Melville's plea of innocence. Melville, in Highland dress, and wearing a feathered bonnet, stands in profile to the right. with clasped hands and flexed knees; he says: "Indeed Mr Bull - I knaw nae more aboot it - than Johnny Groat o'the Highlands." Trotter lurks behind him (left) furtively twitching his superior's kilt, and jerking his thumb to the left.; he says: "Take my advice - and let us Trot off while we are well, he looks confounded inquisitive." John scowls and glares pugnaciously, saying, "Why Look ye - de ye see - I dont come for to go for to say - exactly, that you sack'd the cole - all I say is the Shiners set sail - and as you had the care of the Hatches - it is, likely, you should know what Port they steer'd into! I say let's look at your log book Old one." He wears striped trousers and a knotted scarf; in his hat is a tobacco-pipe. His chair stands on a dais and is decorated with a crowned anchor and dolphins."--British Museum online catalogue and A satire on Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville, who was accused of appropriating funds for non-naval purposes during his tenure as Lord of the Admiralty.

They have sly, twisted expressions. Melville (left), weeping, clutches the back of the speaker's coat. He wears Highland dress, and says: "What my ain Countrymen turn their backs on me! then tis aw up with Johny Mac-cree [see British Museum Satires No. 10378]". On the right, Pitt runs off furtively to the right, saying, "I must cut out this Connexion - & leave him to his fate"."--British Museum online catalogue

"Dundas (right) turns the handle of a machine in which two cylinders revolve in contact. Pitt (left) drags out by the wrists the flattened and elongated body of John Bull from between the cylinders where his ankles are still confined. The upper cylinder is marked 'LOAN LOAN'; the lower, 'SUBSIDY TAX'. Pitt says: "He'll come out a great deal further yet turn the loan stone again he is not half flat enough!!" John Bull turns his eyes despairingly towards Pitt. Both his tormentors have discarded their coats; Dundas wears a plaid over his shirt."--British Museum online catalogue
