"Two dark-complexioned money-lenders, Eurasians or Portuguese, sit facing each other at a round table. One (left), with a cane under his arm, appears to be a visitor; he regards his vis-à-vis with a fixed and cunning grin, holding out a bill or cheque, and pointing to an open chest containing money-bags which is on the ground. The other (right) stares angrily, leaning on the table and clutching a large money-bag. He wears a shirt and waistcoat with breeches and shoes; the other wears a short jacket or long spencer, breeches, and boots. The figures are strongly lit, the room is in deep shadow.

"Heading to (printed) verses 'Sung, with great Applause, by Mr. Henry Johnston, in Dublin, Cork, &c. &c.'

His open box is slung from his neck, showing a watch, gloves, scissors, seals, watch-keys, ribbons, &c. On the right is a barber's shop: 'T. Trim Hair . . .' with a (torn) paper-covered lamp (as in No. 7605) inscribed: 'Shave well for Penny cut for 2 . . .' In the room above a tailor holding shears and iron looks from the window; a projecting sign is inscribed 'Sam Shred Taylor'. On the pavement outside are a fat doctor, a man leading an ass with paniers, and shouting his wares, a barrister addressing a burly man with a staff. On the opposite side of the road is a puppet-show in the form of a castle, into which children are peeping. A baker's man walks past with a board on his head on which is a pie. The last of six verses: Taylors cabbage all your cloth, Shins of beef are very tough. Flummery is just like froth Mrs. Clarke is up to snuff. Jolly tars are fond of fun, "God save the king", we'll nobly shout. And now, good folks, my song is done, Nobody knows what 'twas about. Right fol de riddle del, &c."--British Museum online catalogue

"A portrait-painter painting a family group of a man and wife and their little boy. The group (right) is raised on a low semicircular platform, the couple sit on a high-backed settee without arms, the little boy on a stool in front of his mother. The child, though in his ordinary clothes, is holding a cupid's bow and a sheaf of arrows (reminiscent of the family portrait in the 'Vicar of Wakefield'); a large quiver holding arrows is slung across his shoulders, a wreath is on his head; he yawns violently. The man, in profile to the left, is obese and wears a short bushy wig, a dove sits on his left wrist; only the toes of his shoes reach the ground. His wife sits on his right holding a dove on her right hand; she turns towards her husband, looking straight forward with a fixed and painful smile; she wears ringlets and a cap of lace and ribbons on her high-dressed hair. The artist (left) stands at his easel which supports a large canvas and is placed close to his sitters. He wears spectacles, a bag-wig, and ruffled shirt, and holds a palette in his left hand. He looks towards his sitters with an insinuating smile, which, together with his attitude and the figure of the man sketched on the canvas, shows that he is intent on flattery. High up on the wall behind him are two oval bust portraits, one (left) of a clergyman, the other of a lady. Behind the sitters is a tall screen of several leaves."--British Museum online catalogue

"The Ministry defend 'The Citadel of Office' behind a high stone wall against different Opposition groups. The chief defence is by the tiny Perceval who fires a cannon from whose muzzle issue three heads intended for Wellesley, Ryder, and Melville. In the centre the wall is breached, and Eldon looks from the gap, weeping; behind him is the Woolsack, inscribed 'Wool'. Lord Grey, on tiptoe, reaches up to seize his gown, while he flourishes a paper: 'Report of Physicians 1804'. Erskine, quite bald and with his (former) Chancellor's gown over his arm, reaches up to tug at the Chancellor's wig. Seated on the wall at the lowest point of the breach is Yorke in back view; in his pocket is a 'List of my Friends Cambridge' [see No. 11535]. He hands down a large seal bearing an anchor to Whitbread who straddles a cask floating in water which adjoins the 'Citadel' on the right. Whitbread takes this emblem of the Admiralty, flourishing a tankard (cf. No. 10414). On the left of the breach Sir Vicary Gibbs, brandishing a rolled document inscribed 'Law of Libel', defends himself vigorously against Romilly, who drags at his gown and has a similar weapon inscribed 'New Statutes'. In Romilly's pocket is a paper: 'New Bankrupt Laws'. Farther to the left the three Grenvilles, Lord Temple, the Marquis of Buckingham, and Lord Grenville, level a battering-ram against the wall. The ram has a ram's head, as in heraldry, but with a human face, and is intended for Ponsonby, leader of the Opposition in the Commons. On one horn is spiked a paper: 'Catholic Emancipation'. Between them and Romilly, little Lord Lansdowne (Petty) sits on the ground squirting a large syringe over his shoulder at the wall. Next the ram Moira, stiff and aloof, holds up a fox with the head of Lord Holland (nephew and political heir of Fox), whose fore-paws, holding a paper of 'Resolutions', have reached the top of the wall but are caught in a trap. On the extreme left. Tierney bestrides a wooden horse whose hind-legs are broken off; it is inscribed 'Finance'. A bundle inscribed 'New Budget for 1811' is strapped to his back; he fires a pistol inscribed 'Bullion Report', but he is about to be thrown, so that the pistol points backwards over his head. Between Tierney and the wall are Burdett and Wardle. The former is flinging mud at the defenders, at Moira, and at Tierney. ..."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The little King of Rome sits in his cradle, between the proudly protecting arms of Marie Louise, who kneels behind him. The infant has an adult head resembling that of his father, and a tail; he wears a replica of Napoleon's cocked hat. He holds out his arms to Napoleon, who sits by the fire, holding out a napkin to dry. The Emperor looks fondly at the child, saying, "Rejoice O ye Frenchmen, the Fruits of my Labour has produced a little Image of myself, I shall for the love I owe to your Country instill in my Noble Ofspring the same principles of Lying thieving treachery Letchery Murder and all other foul deeds for which I am now Worshipped and Adored". Behind and between the Emperor and Empress, a bishop (? Cardinal Fesch) kneels over the infant, his hands folded as if in prayer; he repeats the words of Henry VI to Gloucester before his murder by the latter: "The Owl shriek'd at thy Birth, an evil Sight. The Night Crow cry'd foreboding luckless Time. Dogs howl'd and hideous Tempests shook down Trees. The Raven rook'd her on the Chimney Top And chattering Pies in Dismal Discord sung." ['3 Henry VI', v. 6.] On the fire (left) boils a saucepan inscribed 'French Blood'; little demons ascend in the steam rising from it. The mantelshelf is supported by carved demoniac creatures, one having a satyr's head, the other that of a Fury with snaky locks. A similar creature supports the bars of the grate. On the mantelshelf are imperial crowns, the iron crown of Italy (as in British Museum Satires No. 10432), and a papal tiara. The cradle has a crown at the head, and at the foot a grotesque mask inscribed 'Devils Darlind' [sic]. Behind (right), a lady, evidently Josephine, sits up in bed, holding a wine-glass; she looks towards the child quoting Ophelia's words: "Ah Woe is me, seeing what I have seen and seeing what I see". Near her stands an ugly old nurse, holding a syringe; an infant's chair is beside her; it is ornamented with a crown and inscribed 'Prince Skinny Boneys Caching Chair'. On the ground (left) is a sauce-boat inscribed 'Bitter Cup'."--British Museum online catalogue

A boy, holding back a dog, and a girl sit together on the bank. A young couple in a gig at the inn-door watch the cat. Behind the pond (left) a tandem runs away overturning a gig."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Two fat elderly parsons in cap and gown walking together along the side-aisle of a large Gothic church fall violently over a rope stretched across the aisle and held by two groups of undergraduates, also in cap and gown. With the group on the right is a buxom young woman, pulling the rope. Two undergraduates flourish long-lashed whips, one aims a squirt, another lets off a squib. The aisle is divided from the nave by an iron railing; on the ground is a stone or brass with a mitre and crosier inscribed 'Here Lies the Body of Bishop Blear eyes'."--British Museum online catalogue
