A design in five compartments, each occupied by a figure in profile to the right. Above each is an inscription. On the extreme left is a parson preaching from a pulpit; the head of the precentor appears in his desk beneath. Inscribed: 'I pray for all'. Next an advocate in his gown, his right hand raised: 'I plead for all'. Next a corpulent well-dressed man, holding up a sickle in his right hand: 'I maintain all'. Next is a still more corpulent military officer with a drawn sword: 'I fight for all'. Next is the Devil (no wings in this early state), prancing among flames, his talons extended: 'I take all'.

A farmer in top-boots stands at the head of his dinner-table, about to hurl a large cheese; other cheeses fly about the room, and have broken plates and a window-pane. Six alarmed guests sit at the table. The farmer's wife sits opposite him. The verses relate the tale of a loutish and hen-pecked husband who gives an exhibition of his domestic authority to impress his guests, but is finally quelled by his wife

"Queensberry (left) leans from the steps of his Piccadilly house, to leer through a double spy-glass (as in British Museum Satires No. 9082) at a buxom young woman who has just descended from a country wagon (right). She stands on the pavement next her father, a yokel in a smock-frock who is addressed by a fat bawd. The woman puts her hand on his shoulder, saying, "Its very lucky I met with you my honest Man if she behaves well she shall be promoted to the service of a Duke". He answers, "Very lucky indeed I'se Woundily Obliged to your Ladyship. My Dame always said as how Bet was cut out for Zarvice of your great Volkes." The wagoner is depositing in the road the corded box of Elisabeth Maybush; he looks up at Old Q, saying, "ah! I knew he'd dart out like an Old Spider at a Fly". A fashionably dressed young woman walks past the railings of 15 Piccadilly, the lower part of the house forming a background."--British Museum online catalogue
