"Eldon stands with his shirt-sleeves rolled up, carrying a great stack of petitions under each arm. On his head is a porter's knot made of a pair of green bags (emblem of 'Old Bags', see British Museum Satires No. 12883); on this rests a third pile of bulky parchments. Round his right leg is an unfastened garter inscribed '. . . d Expects Every Man will do' [his duty]. He puffs; sweat streams down his forehead; he says: 'Hard work this--got plenty more to bring down yet--.' The petitions are inscribed 'Petition' [five times]; 'against Concession' [twice]; 'Petition against'; '30.000 Inhabitants'; 'Humbly Sheweth'; 'Petition against Concession--' [twice] '3.00 Inhabitants'; '4000 of the . . .'; 'signed by 130.000 Men Women & Children ; 60,000 Respectable Inhabitants'."--British Museum online catalogue

"George IV as the 'Great Babe' lies asleep in his cradle rocked by Lady Conyngham, while Wellington, seated before a pier-glass, places the crown on his own head. The glass reflects the dark emaciated features of British Museum Satires No. 15520. The Duke wears a uniform with boots and sword. On a table below the glass the sceptre and orb lie on a cushion. Lady Conyngham, with a towering coiffure as in British Museum Satires No. 15508, croons: Oh slumber my darling | The time may soon come | When thy rest may be broken | By Trumpet & Drum [the last three words in large letters]. The infant sucks a thumb; a gouty foot projects from the coverlet. On the floor is a line of toys: a sailing boat on wheels, a model of Buckingham Palace reconstructed by Nash as in British Museum Satires No. 15668, a giraffe (see British Museum Satires No. 15425), a Life Guard on a toy horse, a Foot-Guard, a dismantled or unfinished ship resting on a prostrate toy soldier. A napkin on a towel-horse (right) indicates a nursery."--British Museum online catalogue
