Abstract:
"A sequence of eight scenes, arranged in two rows, each with an inscription below it. [1] The Regent lies in bed under fringed draperies; he supports his head on his hand; the bed-clothes are disordered. ... [2] The Regent lies uneasily asleep, clutching the bed-clothes. The Princess of Wales, with her back to the bed, puts out her arms to ward off a demon who is rising among clouds from the floor; the apparition clutches a serpent, and has hair composed of serpents. ... [3] The Regent, wearing a dressing-gown, sits in an arm-chair facing a tall mirror, surrounded by four foreign valets, three of whom are at work on his hair or wig. He holds an open book: 'Memoirs of modern Lais-Ban'. ... [4] The Regent sits in an arm-chair with a small table at his elbow on which is a tray with coffee-pot, &c.; McMahon (right) holds the back of his chair and looks over his shoulder at a sheet of patterns which he is inspecting. A man points to this sheet, a second stands by with more packets of patterns. ... [5] The Regent, in back view and chapeau-bras, runs on tiptoe towards a door in a garden wall that McMahon furtively holds open. Outside a fat man stands behind the back wheels of a carriage. Beside the Regent run Lord Yarmouth and another courtier. ... [6] The Regent's coach and pair drives at a gallop towards the gateway in the screen of Carlton House, the coachman lashing the horses; two footmen stand behind. In the foreground well-dressed spectators watch with amusement. ... [7] The Regent sits at a writing-table, looking round to the left. On a stool near him is a pair of stays; on a high wig-block (left) is his curled wig (cf. British Museum Satires No. 12184). On the wall is a large mirror, and against the wall stands a sofa. ... [8] The Regent's empty chair (left) stands at a dinner-table on which are decanters and glasses, some overturned or broken. Three guests lie under the table. The Prince, staggering tipsily, is being conducted from the room by McMahon and Yarmouth."--British Museum online catalogue

A pretty young woman is in the doorway. In the foreground two burly children play with a monstrous cat, surrounded by goods ready for transport. These are cooking utensils, mop and pail, flat-irons, &c."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"A handsome strapping woman stands in the doorway of a brothel, a corner house of some size (right), tugging hard at the neck-cloth of a plainly dressed man, saying, "Wont you come, wont you come Mr Mug [a popular song, see British Museum Satires No. 11205]." He leans back, pushing against the door-post, and the woman's chest, trying to escape, and saying: "Avaunt thee Satan." Two laughing prostitutes lean against him (left), pushing their posteriors against his, to prevent his escape; one of them, for better purchase, presses her hands and a foot against the post of the sign-board before the door. On this is a pictorial sign: 'Cat and Bagpipes'. A dog rushes barking towards the struggle. Behind (left), across the street, is a row of old houses with casement windows; washing hangs from a projecting pole."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"A confused scene. A beadle, cane in hand, grasps the side of an overturned barrow, from which a basket, scales, and black puddings (coloured green) have fallen. A powerful young woman grasps his nose, and prepares to use her fist; an older woman clutches his back and belabours him with a basket. Both are shrieking termagants with bare breasts. A dog between the beadle's legs barks. The spectators, all close to the fray, are amused: a butcher, shouldering a tray of meat, stands outside his stall (left), which is immediately behind the combatants; from it dangle large joints and a carcase. A woman passes, pushing a barrow (left). A man's grinning face watches from the right. Behind (right) is a shop placarded 'Bob Giblet Poulterer', its ancient front hidden by bunches of hares and turkeys."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"An obese, elderly man, completely bald, sits in an arm-chair while a shopman pours oil from a bottle (straw-covered like a Chianti flask) on to his scalp, pressing down his head with the left hand. At his feet is a basin to receive the overflow. On the ground is a tall 'Fools Cap', with ears. Behind them stands a woman with a shock of red hair standing on end; she looks in horror at its reflection in a wall-mirror (right). On the wall above her head is a placard: 'Wonderful Discovery Carrotty or Grey Whiskers Changed to Black Brown or Blue--' High on the wall are shelves where bottles of the oil are closely ranged, one inscribed 'Wig Oil One Guinea Pr Bottle'.

Abstract:
"Joanna Southcott, a stout termagant, stands in back view directed slightly to the right, gathering up her petticoats to display her person to three doctors who gaze closely at her. She is grossly caricatured, with no resemblance to her portraits. She says, her head turned in profile to the right, and looking up with a triumphant smile: "Seeing is believing are you Now satisfied theres no [sic] Behold the Naked Truth most Learned Doctors." The doctors, who are crouching for closer inspection, say respectively: "It has a confounded strange appeara[nce]"; "I have my doubts"; "I cant help suspecting". Across her posteriors, defined by the pulling up of her petticoats, is engraved: 'Aged 64 Bladders of Blasphemy and Corruption Sealed up and Ready to Burst'. On the left is a large cradle of straw in which is seated a grotesque parson with horns projecting from his forehead; he holds a spoon and a bowl inscribed 'Caudle'; beside him is a paper: 'Cradle Hymns'. He leers cunningly. The cradle is inscribed 'Parson Towser' and 'Cradle for Joanna's Boar Pig'. A bird-like demon, grinning grotesquely, crouches on the head of the cradle. Against it lies a sack inscribed 'Donations Child Bed Linen for young Beelzebub'. Beside this lie a large coral and bells, pap-spoon, syringes, a little saucepan, &c. (presents from the faithful). Beside Johanna (right) is a chest (as in British Museum Satires No. 12334) inscribed 'Joanna Southcot's Prophecys' and 'Seals for Sale'. Other things beside it are a syringe inscribed 'infusion of Devils Dose', a paper inscribed 'Game of Humbug', a bowl of 'Cock Broth for Tom Tozer', and a decanter of 'Strong Water'. In the background, framed by large curtains, are a pulpit and a high latticed window, suggesting a chapel interior."--British Museum online catalogue
