A crude portrayal of a fight on the floor of Congress between Vermont Representative Matthew Lyon and Roger Griswold of Connecticut. The row was originally prompted by an insulting reference to Lyon on Griswold's part. The interior of Congress Hall is shown, with the Speaker Jonathan Dayton and Clerk Jonathan W. Condy (both seated), Chaplain Ashbel Green (in profile on the left), and several others looking on, as Griswold, armed with a cane, kicks Lyon, who grasps the former's arm and raises a pair of fireplace tongs to strike him. Below are the verses: "He in a trice struck Lyon thrice / Upon his head, enrag'd sir, / Who seiz'd the tongs to ease his wrongs, / And Griswold thus engag'd, sir."

"Pl. to 'The second part, . . . [ut supra]', see BMSat 10465. Dr. 'Willain' and his wife, three-quarter length and arm-in-arm, gaze up at a Punch and Judy show: Punch, highly delighted, has knocked over his wife, who staggers back. The doctor holds behind him the stick (with a cat's face) which his wife holds in BMSat 10465. From the doctor's coat-pocket dangles the head of a duck which he has bought after watching with his wife the plebeian (and cruel) sport of duck-hunting. The profile head of a spectator, or the showman, gazes at her from the r. margin."--British Museum online catalogue
