"John Bull (left), wearing a star centred by a heart: 'Queens Order of Knighthood', furiously kicks Italian witnesses from a quay into the sea, where (right) a boat waits to take them to a packet-boat. His bull-dog is about to bite, and he raises a massive bludgeon, kicking a lean grenadier with an empty sleeve, to whose back is tied a large green bag (see British Museum Satires No. 13735) inscribed 'Infernal Lies from Como' [cf. No. 13857]. On this capers a demon, holding a noose above the Italian's head, and in the left hand a little gibbet from which hangs a tiny effigy of the Grenadier with his bundle. The Italian holds a stiletto and wears a high cap with dangling bell on which are skull and cross-bones. J. B. shouts: "This is Freedom's own Land, 'tis the land of the Queen, Where no hired traducers shall ever be seen, Be off each vile Eunuch--be off high and low or I'll knock you to H--ll with an Englishmans blow!!" The Italian looks back to say: "If thus you pay Italian Spies I'll bring no more Infernal Lies" Another Italian wearing braided livery is knee-deep in the sea, he looks back angrily at John, holding dagger and pistol. A terrified foreigner, ragged but fashionable, leaps towards the water, exclaiming: "Diable!! Jean Anglaise [sic]." A woman with a bunch of keys, in full flight, pours the contents of a 'Pot de Chambre' over a grotesque lawyer (Leach), who is racing down steps to the water with a green bag of 'Lies from Milan'. She says: "Dis Pot contains mine Evidence--do taste it Signor Horse Leach, you vill find very strong proof of Guilt." Leach, looking over his shoulder, says: "This Business smells strong We have kept it too long" A sturdy sailor standing in a boat at the foot of the steps fends him off with a boat-hook, saying: "Shew me a clean bill of health signed Caroline or by G d you sha'nt come on board here."."--British Museum online catalogue
