"Fox, as the Devil, has sprung into the air, supported by small feathered wings inscribed 'Honesty' and 'Humility' and by two stout crutches, which rest upon dark clouds. He has a heavy hairy body with cloven hoofs, and wears a bonnet rouge with tricolour cockade and the triple plume of the Prince of Wales. The two crutches have the heads, respectively, of Sidmouth (left) and Grenville. He wears a long narrow cloak with a tricolour collar; it is inscribed 'Loyalty, Independence & Public-Good'. The end of this is clutched by John Bull, a fat 'cit' (resembling John Gilpin, see BMSat 6886, &c), who is drawn up into the air, losing hat and wig. Fox says, looking over his right shoulder with a sinister grin: "Come along Johnny! - take fast hold of my Cloak, & I'll bring you to the land of Milk & Honey!!!" The terrified John answers: " - O yes, I will try to holdfast! - but I'm damnably afraid that your Cloak may slip off before we get there, & I may chance to break my Neck!" Below John's feet and at the base of the design (left), are the roofs of London, including the top of the gateway of St. James's Palace and the dome of St. Paul's. Fox is flying towards the façade of Carlton House, which emerges from clouds; over its roof rises a sun emitting rays, the disk inscribed 'New Constitution'. Above the colonnade is the inscription 'Carolus. II. Redimmus'. Resting on the clouds below Carlton House are three tiny scenes: 'Liberty': two gamblers throwing dice, one Sheridan the other the Prince; men watch them. 'Chastity', the Prince and Mrs. Fitzherbert, indicated by feathers in her hair, embrace on a sofa. 'Temperance', men carouse at a round table; one sprawls on the floor. Fox, as the Devil (cf. BMSat 6383, &c), under the cloak of patriotism, is carried to power by two props, Sidmouth and Grenville, on whose coalition with the Foxites the new Ministry, see BMSat 10531, &c, is. based. This relies not on St. James's but on Carlton House, the secrets of which, as in Le Sage's story, are revealed in three scenes satirizing the life of the Prince. The allegation that the new Ministry was subservient to Carlton House was natural, see BMSat 10252, &c, and recurs, see (e.g.) BMSats 10530, &c, 10543, 10697, but proved unfounded, see G. M. Trevelyan, 'Lord Grey of the Reform Bill', p. 153 f., and cf. BMSat 10526, &c."--British Museum online catalogue

"Members of the new Ministry in a handsome room prepare themselves for office, each intent on his toilet. Both Fox and Grey look into a large pier-glass on the extreme left., whose frame is surmounted by the Royal Arms and Prince's feathers, indicating Carlton House and the Prince's 'ostentatious patronage' of the new Ministry. [W. Fitzpatrick, 'H.M.C., Dropmore MSS.' viii, p. viii.] Fox (Foreign Secretary), wearing a tattered shirt, shaves, holding a small bowl filled with lather. On a chair are the coat (blue with red facings, the Windsor uniform) and feathered cocked hat which he is about to put on; against it leans a sword with a jewelled hilt, while his discarded coat and bonnet rouge with tricolour cockade lie beneath it. Beside him stands the taller Grey, brushing his teeth. He wears naval uniform (as First Lord) Behind him, also in profile to the left., stands Sidmouth (Lord Privy Seal), his head and shoulders the centre of clouds of powder, which Vansittart is puffing at him from a powdering-bag. His Windsor uniform is protected by a long towel; in his coat pocket is a clyster-pipe (see BMSat 9849). In the foreground little Lord Henry Petty struts with pointed toe, delighted at the effect of his Chancellor of the Exchequer's gown, which trails on the ground behind him, far too long. Windham (Secretary for War and Colonies), behind him, sits full face over a tub, washing his feet; he wears waistcoat and rolled-up shirt-sleeves; his hat and stockings are on the ground. Next is the centre figure, Lord Grenville (First Lord of the Treasury), in shirt and bag-wig, hitching up his breeches, and thus accentuating his heavy posteriors, which gave a second meaning to the term Broad-bottom Ministry (see BMSat 10530). Moira (Master of the Ordnance) stands stiffly with his back to the wall, tying his high black stock. He wears regimentals with boots and cocked hat. The Duke of Bedford, very neat in shirt and breeches, sits on a stool pulling on a top-boot, resting his leg on the left shoulder of Tierney, who sits at his feet, drawing on a Hessian boot. Both are in profile to the right., and are preparing for a journey to Ireland. Beside Bedford are two papers: 'New way of Improving the Irish-Breed of Black Cattle' and 'Road from Wooburn Farm to Ireland' [on this Tierney is sitting]. Behind Bedford, Sheridan struggles into a shirt; on the wall hangs his discarded Harlequin dress with mask and wooden sword (see BMSat 9916). Lord Spencer (Home Secretary), behind and on the r. of Sheridan, in waistcoat and shirt-sleeves, washes his hands in a basin on a table. On the extreme right. is the corner of a dressing-table, in the mirror of which Erskine delightedly adjusts his hat over his Chancellor's wig. He wears an enormously long Chancellor's gown with the Purse of the Great Seal hanging from his arm. Behind him on the wall hangs his discarded barrister's wig. The mace, reversed, leans against the table."--British Museum online catalogue

"Pitt, a colossal figure (cf. BMSat 8980), bestrides the Rotunda of the 'Bank of England'. His arms and legs are very thin, but his body is formed of a (transparent) sack distended with gold coins and inscribed '£'. His elbows are akimbo, his hands grasp the sides of the sack; from the little finger of his left hand hangs a key, 'Key of Public Property'. Round the mouth of the sack is a heavy chain clasped by a padlock inscribed 'Power of securing Public Credit'. From the sack emerges the pipe-like neck down which coins are passing. Pitt looks arrogantly to the right, a blast issues from his closed lips of many paper notes inscribed 'one'. Near his mouth are a few gold coins which he is presumably inhaling. He wears a crown formed of 'one' pound notes; through it project his ass's ears. The near side of the Rotunda is removed, showing a descending shower of paper and an ascending cluster of coins which are being drawn upwards to join those in the sack. Little figures in and around the rotunda, under Pitt's legs, hold up their hands in dismay at the shower of £1 notes. Among them is a John Bull wearing a smock. Two men hold papers inscribed 'Dividend'; a Jew walks off (left) with 'Scrip'. On the left, behind Pitt's right foot, is the sea-shore; large reeds at its edge blow towards him; among these are five heads wearing bonnets-rouges, each with a label issuing from his mouth: 'Midas has Ears'. They are Fox, Sheridan, Erskine, M. A. Taylor, and (?) Grey. They diminish in size from Fox to Taylor. Across the sea is 'Brest', from which a fleet is setting out. Behind it are black clouds, and an explosion rises from them in which are swarms of tiny figures holding daggers and wearing bonnets-rouges. This spreads behind Pitt's head who appears unconscious of it. He looks down towards three almost naked winged figures: Grenville (left) and Dundas (right) hold up between them a scroll: 'Prosperous state of British Finances. & the new Plan for diminishing the National Debt - with Hints on the increase of Commerce'. Between and above them is Windham, Secretary-at-War, a pen behind his ear. He waves his cocked hat, Grenville his coronet, and Dundas his Scots cap. Beneath the title: 'History of Midas, - The great Midas having dedicated himself to Bacchus [cf. BMSat 8651], obtained from that Deity, the Power of changing all he Touched - Apollo fixed Asses-Ears upon his head, for his Ignorance - & although he tried to hide his disgrace with a Regal Cap, yet the very Sedges which grew from the Mud of the Pactolus, whisper'd out his Infamy, whenever they were agitated by the Wind from the opposite Shore - Vide Ovid's Metamorposes.'"--British Museum online catalogue

"Five horses with human heads, ridden by jockeys, race for the half-open door of the Treasury (left), across a wide cobbled pavement. The Regent and Lady Hertford with Lord Hertford standing behind holding his Lord Chamberlain's wand, stand on the pavement (left) watching the finish. The winning horse, Liverpool, is a piebald, with an earl's coronet round his neck, and branded 'H'. Next is Wellesley, a marquis's coronet round his neck, ridden by a jockey in oriental dress with a jewelled turban, who looks over his shoulder, saying: "Come Grey push on you'll let Pye Ball win else." Next is Moira, a blue ribbon round his neck representing the Garter granted on 12 June (which he had refused on 28 Feb., see 'Corr. of George IV', i. 29, 34-5), close behind is Grey; last is Grenville. Lady Hertford, as umpire, exclaims: "Bravo Pye Ball you have fairly won." Lord Hertford cries: "Huzza Pye Ball for ever." The Regent turns to a stout John Bull, to say: "Come Johny out with your Cash your favorite has lost you see." John puts out a protesting hand, saying, "No No D--e if I do! I'm off, why its a proper cross and Jostle I d'ont like the Umpire neither." John wears a top-hat and top-boots, his pockets bulge with money-bags, and he holds a cudgel. In the roadway is a cob or pony with the face of Sheridan, branded 'P R', ridden by the stout Yarmouth, from whose pocket projects a paper: 'The Milling Hero a Poem', see No. 11746, &c.; he is too large for his mount, and says: "Softly! Softly! poor Old Sherry, Oh my poor bones are in danger!" The animal kicks, saying: "It's a d--d dirty Job to carry such a -- but as I carried your Master [the Regent] through before you hold fast and I'll take you to the end." In the foreground (right) a man stands full-face, shouting; he holds a tall pole on which is a placard: 'The Treasury Sweepstakes for high-bred Hunters 4 Heats The M-ch-ss of H--s Pyebald Colt Liverpool ------- 1, dr, dr, 1 Iohn Bulls favorite ch. f.

"The globe is the 'State of the Nation', a parliamentary phrase implying a vote of censure on the conduct of the Ministry. It is covered with islands in a 'Sea of Tribulation'. These are: '10.000 Pr An for an Apostate intended Princess'; 'Large Grants to relatives of decased [sic] Hero's'; 'Large Sums voted to Younger [The word has been etched over 'relatives'.] Branches of large Families'; 'Taxation Island'; 'Property Tax Assess'd Taxes Tax upon Tax' [twice], with smaller islands inscribed [four times] 'Tax upon Tax'. For the property-tax and budget see BMSats 10557,10564, &c. The 'Apostate Princess' is Mrs. Fitzherbert, in the public eye through Jefferys's pamphlet, see BMSat 10589, and the final decision of the House of Lords in the Seymour case (14 June 1806), see BMSat 10389. The 'deceased hero's' are Nelson and Rodney, Nelson's (collateral) heirs obtaining an annuity of £5,000 and a capital sum of £120,000. 'Parl. Debates', vii. 141-5 (13 May). The pension of £1,000 to Lord Rodney's son was continued to his grandson. Ibid., p. 902 (3 July). By the Royal Family Annuities Bill large additions were made to the incomes of the Duke of Clarence and his younger brothers, of the princesses, and their niece Princess Charlotte of Wales, and of the widow, son, and daughter of the Duke of Gloucester, the King's brother who died in 1805.

"Pitt (right) stands stiffly in profile to the left, holding open a large sack-like wallet inscribed 'Requisition Budget'. He addresses John Bull, the central figure, a stout yokel, who holds out his breeches in his left hand to Pitt, while he touches his hat. The budget and the breeches pockets are full of guineas. Pitt says: "More Money, John! - more Money! to defend you from the Bloody, the Cannibal French - They're a coming! - why they'll Strip you to the very Skin - more Money. John! - They're a coming - They're a coming." Dundas, Grenville, and Burke kneel on the right, bending towards the 'Budget', each with his left hand in an opening in a vertical seam, eagerly grabbing guineas. Behind them is the stone archway of the 'Treasury', with its high spiked gate. Dundas, the most prominent, wears Highland dress and holds a Scots cap full of coins. Grenville wears a peer's robe; Burke is behind. They echo Pitt: Dundas says "Ay! Ay! They're a coming! They're a coming!" Grenville: "Yes! Yes, They're a coming." Burke: "Ay They're a coming." John says: " - a coming? - are they? - nay then, take all I've got, at once, Measter Billy! - vor its much better for I to ge ye all I have in the World to save my Bacon, - than to stay & be Strip'd stark naked by Charley, & the plundering French Invasioners, as you say". His coat and waistcoat are sound, but the pockets hang inside out, empty. His lank hair, knotted kerchief, and wrinkled gaiters denote the small farmer. Behind (left), on the shore, stands Fox looking across the water towards the fortress of 'Brest' flying a tricolour flag. He hails it with upraised arms, shouting: "What! more Money ? - O the Aristocrat Plunderer! - Vite Citoyens! - vite! - vite! depechez vous! - or we shall be too late to come inn for any Snacks of the I'argant! - vite Citoyens! vite! vite!""--British Museum online catalogue

"A pair of breeches, formerly belonging to Fox, much inflated and forming two merging and transparent globes with projecting legs, is poised (at the seat) on three ostrich feathers, erect in a round bed of (ministerial) roses (see BMSat 10558, &c). Within these globes members of the Ministry sit at a round table, devouring loaves and fishes. The nearest ones are in back view, and have the heavy posteriors characteristic of the Grenvilles (cf.

All are gormandizing on fish in different degrees, except Spencer and Holland who eat normally. Before Grenville is a dish containing two large fish: 'Treasury' and 'Exchequer', see BMSat 10543, &c. A dog, its collar inscribed 'Tierney', puts its forefeet on the bench, yapping at Grenville's back (cf. BMSats 10128, &c., 10603). On the ground beside him are three cats eating fish in a dish inscribed 'Tabbeys'; their collars are inscribed 'Bet Fox', 'Fitz', and 'Jordan'. Rats surround a dish inscribed 'Scribblers' [ministerial journalists and pamphleteers]. Larger rats in the Ministerial rose-bed gnaw at the feathers which support the breeches. ..."--British Museum online catalogue
