"A winding river flows (left to right) towards a hill in the background surmounted by a temple of Fame. In the foreground (left) is a 'Dunghill of Republican Horse Turds'; in the stream float turds from the dunghill, while farther up are golden apples, crowned and inscribed. The foremost is 'English-Pippin', close behind are 'Imperial-Pippin' and 'Russian-Pippin'; they are followed by a (turbaned) 'Turkish-Pippin' and a small 'Neapolitan' [Pippin]. From a mass of floating dung emerges the profile head of Bonaparte, wearing a feathered cocked hat inscribed 'First Horse Turd'; this is the central and dominating object in the river; from his mouth issues a large label: 'A ha! par ma foi - how We Apples Swim!' Lumps of dung close behind him are inscribed 'Second Horse Turd' [Cambacérès], 'Third Horse Turd' [Lebrun], and 'Seyes' [sic]. They are followed by 'Massena', 'Jourdan', 'Talleyrand'. Bonaparte swims between 'Spanish-Pippin' and 'Prussian-Pippin', both in proximity to dung. Behind him float 'Papal P[ippin]', a triple crown, and 'Sardinian [Pippin]', both half submerged. Under water are submerged (or dead) turds: 'Robespierre', 'Marat', 'Condorcet', 'Roland'. A spreading column of thick smoke arises from the dunghill, which is composed of inscribed fragments, from which in the left foreground tiny heads emerge, the dominant one being Fox, who says: "Caira! Caira! - chacun à son tour! We shall all Swim in our turns"; next him is 'Envy'. Tierney, the second head, says: "Yes! Yes! - none of Us was born to be Drowned". The others are Sheridan, Nicholls, Erskine, and (slightly smaller) Burdett, Derby, Taylor. Those indicated by names only are: 'Voltaire', 'Rosseau' [sic], 'd'Alembert', 'Godwin', 'Price', 'Priestley', 'Holcroft', '(?) Darwin', close to (scarcely legible) 'Mo[rning] Po[st]', 'Morn. Chronicle', 'Courier [see BMSat 9194]. Larger turds are: 'Atheism', 'Falshood', 'Regicide', 'Egalité', 'Disappointment', 'Beggary', 'Poverty', 'Plunder', 'Paines Rights of Man' [see BMSat 7867, &c], 'Republican Faith', 'Theophilanthropy' [see BMSat 9240], 'Deceit [twice]', 'Lies', 'Licentiousness', 'Hypocrisy'."--British Museum online catalogue

"Count Rumford stands in profile to the right, smiling; he pulls aside his coat-tails to warm his back at the fire. The fire-place has a small rectangular aperture, set low, the grate triangular in shape and resembling a modern fire-place. His shadow falls vertically across the fire (which emits much black smoke) and resembles a cloud of smoke. On the small high chimney-piece are a coffee-pot with a wide base and long handle, and a round cooking-pot. He grins with satisfaction, his profile is drink-blotched, and he wears (inconspicuously) a parti-coloured ribbon. His boots are of the fashionable Hessian pattern. A carpet and bare panelled walls complete the design."--British Museum online catalogue
