Abstract:
"A scene in a College cloister, indicated by a wall and Gothic vaulting. A pretty and buxom girl carrying milk-pails suspended from a yoke is embraced by a young man in cap, gown, and bands who leans towards her through a casement window. She disregards her milk-pails; one, containing two infants, tilts upwards, the other, full of milk, correspondingly descends and a spaniel greedily laps the milk. On the extreme left a lean elderly parson, hideous and grotesque, similarly dressed, watches intently."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"A hideous old miser sits between fire (right) and table (left) snuffing a candle; he ignores a man seated opposite him, who registers agonized entreaty. Both are three-quarter length. On the table is a large book: 'Table of Interest'. Over the chimney-piece is a placard, the right side cut off by the margin of the design. 'Stock Ex[change], Bank Stock, 3 Pr Cents, Imperial [Loan], Omnium [cf. British Museum Satires No. 11716], South Sea, Exchequer [Bills], Lottery Tick[ets]'. A portrait of the miser above his head shows him gleefully weighing coin, with money-bags beside him. The room is small and poverty-stricken with a casement window, and a skeleton-like rat scampering on the window-ledge. Through an open door (left) is seen the profile of a grotesquely malevolent old hag. ..."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
