"A strip design in imitation of British Museum Satires No. 7230. The names of the characters are etched beneath them, the words spoken above their heads. 'R------e' (Rose) rushes forward, in alarm, exclaiming "The People refuse to address to T--l--w" (Thurlow) who answers "Bl-st their Eyes" (cf. British Museum Satires No. 7320). 'P-tt' leans anxiously towards Thurlow, saying, "then I am done over. S-----y" (Sydney), his back to Pitt, addresses 'D------s', saying, "it is all dickey with me". Dundas, stamping with rage, answers, "I'll gang to my awn country and sell Butter & Brimstone. R------d" (Richmond), standing beside a cannon (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6921, &c), puts his finger to his nose, saying, "I begin to smell Powder". He speaks to 'G------n' (Grafton) who answers, "I begin to stink damnably. C--t--m" (Chatham), a small man-of-war under each arm, leans in profile to the right, saying, "I thought myself snug" (he succeeded Howe as First Lord in Sept. 1788, cf. British Museum Satires No. 7480). 'C--m--n' (Camden) stands full-face, his hands in his old-fashioned coat-pockets, saying, "I should have known better". 'B------k W-----n' (Brook Watson), flourishing his wooden leg, says to Camden, "I cannot Brook this I'll hop off. G--n--e" (Grenville) holds up his Speaker's wig, saying, "I shall lose my new Wig" (he was elected Speaker on 5 Jan.). 'W-----es' (Wilkes), holding his chin reflectively and squinting violently, says, "I can look either way".
