Abstract:
"A handsome young courtesan sits by the fire, her legs crossed indecorously, her breast bare; she has a decanter at her elbow, and holds a glass of wine. Standing on each side of her are her jailor, holding a bunch of keys, and a hideous old woman; both drink. Over the chimney-piece is a placard: 'Mac Nab Sherrifs Officer for the County of Middlesex--Genteel Accomodation for Ladies and Gentlem[en]'. The door (left) is heavily bolted, and has an iron grille; the large, partly curtained window is massively barred."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"A grotesquely fat woman, much decolletee, sits at a piano (left) singing and playing, her left foot on the pedal. With upturned eyes and gaping mouth she sings: "Just like love ..." [three times]. Her music book is open at: 'Just like Love a Favorite Song Sung by Mr Braham'. A fat man in old-fashioned dress, standing just behind her, his hands raised in surprise, turns to address two younger men who are fashionably dressed. He asks: "Don't my Lady play and Sing delightfully? she was finished under the famous Sigr Squawlletti." The man on the extreme right, holding his friend's arm, says: "By G- if the Signior had been under my Lady she would have finish'd him! would'nt She Sir Thomas." The other laughs: "Ha! Ha! Ha! come that's a good one!"--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A sequence of six scenes in compartments arranged in three pairs. [1] A foal lies beside its dam. [2] The owner leads the high-stepping animal across a race-course; behind (right) is the weighing-post. [3] Ridden by a huntsman he takes a flying leap over a wall; hounds run beside the animal. [4] He is one of a pair of galloping horses in a post-chaise, ridden by a postilion. An ugly couple sleep uneasily in the chaise. [5] As an emaciated pack-horse he plods along a rough track, thrashed by a coarse old peasant woman. [6] A huntsman stands on his dead body, cutting off the flesh for the hounds; carrion birds hover."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
