"Sheridan, fat and grotesque, dressed as Pizarro, strides to the front of the royal box, followed by the King and Queen in Court dress. He holds out a guttering candle in each hand and shouts towards the stage: "Stand by there, move that Stone out of the Way hollo Music there play God Save the King d'ye hear take care Sire mind that Step, louder there Music make room for the best of Kings & wisest of Sovereigns! Encore." The King says to the bejewelled Queen: "No! no! no Jacobins here all Loyal all Loyal, Charming Man the Author eh! charming Man, never saw him in such a good light before." Three princesses follow; one says: "bless me I never saw that General at Court". Behind are two princes in uniform with gorgets, evidently the Dukes of York and Cumberland. On the floor by Sheridan are two papers: 'Maidstone Loyalty' [see British Museum Satires No. 9245, &c], and '[Tomorr]ow Evening performed a new play called the Loyal Author to which will be added a Peep behind the Curtain Vivan[t] Rex et Regina'. The curtain is down; on the proscenium, replacing the usual 'Veluti in Speculum', is 'Anti Jacobin House'. Two men stand in the pit, waving their hats towards the royal box; one is Fox."--British Museum online catalogue

"Hastings stands in a two-wheeled cart under a gibbet. Fox places the rope round his neck; Burke also stands in the cart dressed as a parson, in a long gown and bands, holding an open book. Sheridan (right) pushes the cart from behind, looking at North (left) who holds the horse's head. Large scrolls issue from the mouths of all five and are an important part of the design: Hastings says, "Walpole said every Man had his Price but Alass! I never could find out any of your Prices." Burke says "A Poor Atonement this for Millions &c." Fox says "A Poor Atonement do you call it Ned! Egad it would have been adevil of a Job for me, if my F------r had made such an atonement for------Unaccounted Millions." (Lord Holland was called in a City Address to the King 'the public defaulter of unaccounted millions'. North says, "Dont you remember Sheri------that my now Rt Honble Friend often threat'ned to bring me to this or the Block". Sheridan answers, "Psha Fred - you know that was only to frighten you from your Station - &c - but drive on, or our friend Edmund will stand preaching here all day.""--British Museum online catalogue
