James Morison promoting his alternative medicines; satirised by five vignettes of a fox among geese. The central image is that of a street scene outside the London and British Colleges of Health: James Morison is presented as a fox standing on a box of 'Universal vegetable pills' surrounded by geese, who represent the public; he says "My 'Universal pills' are quite divine! If one don't do, you may take nine." and "Various humorous images of foxes and geese comprising (clock-wise from top left); a fox dressed as an eighteenth century fop offering a glass to a goose wearing a bonnet; a fox butcher, standing outside his shop and offering a dead goose to a vixen dressed in a shawl and bonnet, other poultry hanging outside; a fox in militray uniform and playing on a drum, leading a column of geese; a fox preaching to a congregation of geese; the large central image; a fox in a smart tailcoat advertising his 'Universal Vegetable Pills' to an interested gathering of geese; the 'British College of Health' and the 'London College of Health' beyond, the latter with two well-dressed foxes drinking on a balcony, observed by a crowd of geese (lettered below image "The Fox and Goose"; a short poem or song following)."--British Museum online catalogue

A fox with the face of Charles Fox runs away from a pack of hunting dogs, foremost of which is Pitt, with the key to the Treasury hanging from his collar, with Thurlow, in a Chancellor's wig. They are followed by the dogs representing the Duke of Richmond, Henry Dundas, and Lord Nugent. Behind them, Lord Temple, in a jockey's outfit, rides on an ass with the King's face. Above, a smiling sun with Lord Shelburne's face, casts rays at the hunting party, while the upset-looking Boreas (Lord North) blasts cold air at Pitt's head to impede his progress

George III, shown as a lion holding a sceptre and seated under a canopy, receives a deputation of ganders led by a fox (Charles Fox) and a muzzled bear (Lord North). The first of the ganders reads a petition requesting the dismissal of the elephant (William Pitt) who stands to the lion's left. On the right side of the throne, a bull (John Bull) with its head lowered, appears ready to attack the deputation. The text of "The ganders address" is etched below the image, together with the text of "The lion's answer" in which the King rejects the petition

The disproportionately large heads in wigs of, from left, Lord North, Charles Fox, and Edmund Burke, are displayed on top of Temple Bar. The arch contains reversed and burlesqued royal arms. In three niches below the arch stand headless statues of, from left, North as Avarice, Fox, shown as a fox, as Ambition, and Burke as Hypocrisy. The declaration signed by 'Justice' and pasted to the gate in the archway explains the reasons for elevating the three Whigs so highly, in a manner reminiscent of the execution of the Jacobite leaders in 1746. On the left are pasted two playbills. The upper one refers to the King's candidates in the Westminster election, the lower one to Fox as Cromwell, North as Boreas, and Burke as St. Omer, a 7th-century bishop who became blind in his old age. On the opposite side of the archway, an advertisement by 'Dr. Ax' is followed by a plea for votes from Cerberus whose three heads are named after North, Burke, and Fox

Charles Fox, dressed as Cromwell, paints the execution of Charles I, using royal crown and sceptre as artist's tools. Above the canvas hangs a painting showing a fox, with the Liberty cap on a stick, presenting a male figure of America with a sheet of paper inscribed, "Independence." Behind Fox stands the angry female figure of Justice, her blindfold removed, a sword inscribed, "justice," in her right hand. In the left hand she holds a pair of scales of which the one filled with "loyalty" outweighs the one holding a fox. On the floor lies an open volume entitled, "Patriotism by C. Cromwell," propped on the hilt of a sword labeled, "Commonwealth."
