Abstract:
"A Quaker stands by an open grave, with clasped hands, eyes sanctimoniously turned up. A grave-digger leans on his spade watching him with puzzled distaste. The Quaker: "Verily the spirit at length beginneth to move me - Alas! there is no happiness on this side of the grave." A disgruntled sailor (dressed as in British Museum Satires No. 10894, coat open to show a waistcoat) who stands opposite him asks: "Why then you Lubber, dont you come on this side?" A second Quaker stands behind the first, hands clasped, looking down; on the extreme left a woman in a Quaker's bonnet puts her handkerchief to her eyes. Behind the sailor and on the extreme right is another mourner, also puzzled and unsympathetic. The scene is a large walled graveyard; a skull lies by the open grave, grinning up at the Quaker."--British Museum online catalogue

"The artist [a portrait of Woodward], wearing a flowered dressing-gown, sits in profile to the right. at a sloping desk, painting on a small oval a bust portrait of a sailor who sits truculently (right), smoking a pipe, arms akimbo. The sailor wears a round hat, short jacket, knotted handkerchief, striped trousers and buckled shoes. On his cheek is a round black patch. At his elbow is a punch-bowl. He says: "Come my Hearty - mind what you are at - make good use of your Eyes - you know the terms on which I set sail - ten golden quids if you come to Anchor in ten minutes - but a minute beyond time, and you have but five you know, so heave a head do you hear - and lay in plenty of the true-blue about the jacket, - and Harkee Young-one - don't forget the beauty spot on the lar-board side of my Cheek - Poll calls it her hearts delight, - well this same painting is a fine knack to be sure - but I am rather puzzled about one thing - If you can get my hulk, head, and stern into that there little bit of ivory - d------n me, but I think you would be able to tow a seventy-four through one of the cock boat Arches of London Bridge"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Wellington on the extreme left, seated in profile on his white horse, looks down at three officers who heap trophies at his feet. He says: "Why! here's enough for three nights Illumination!" An officer answers: "Three times Three! My Lord!!" Another, holding two eagles with their tattered tricolour flags, holds out a marshal's baton, saying, "Here's Marshal Jordens Rolling-pin." The third, wearing hussar uniform, and holding an eagle with a flag inscribed 'La Emperu . . .', points behind and to the right, saying, "And here comes their Last Cannon!!" In the middle distance a soldier is dragging after him downhill a cannon by a rope attached to the muzzle; he says, grinning, "By St Patrick I think we have taken all they brought from Parts!"; a drummer bestrides the gun beating his drum and shouting, and a third man stands astride it on the gun-carriage, waving a Union flag and his shako and shouting "Huzza Huzza". Two asses are harnessed tandem to the gun-carriage and are being dragged backwards, one slides on its haunches the other rears; on each is a French soldier wearing a bonnet rouge; one says: "By Gar every ting goes backwards with us." On the hill lies a dead soldier' burlesqued and wearing a bonnet rouge, his legs raised from the ground by his huge spurs; near him is a decapitated body with the detached head still wearing a grenadier's cap. In the foreground (right) are sacks of coin, and a chest inscribed 'Plunder', heaped with church plate."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A family conclave. A pretty young woman sits holding an infant in long clothes with curiously adult features; she turns towards an elderly man beside her (left); her sailor husband, who has risen from his chair, stares warily at his father. The old man, who wears a seaman's short jacket with knee-breeches, scowls towards his son, saying, "Why d'ye see I am an old Seaman and not easily imposed upon--I say that cant be my Son Jacks child why he has been married but three months and during that time he has been at sea--the thing is impossible you may as well tell me that my ship Nancy goes nine knots an hour in a dead calm, and now I look again its the very picture of Peter Wilkins the Soap Boiler." A dog sits beside him, much interested. The woman says: "My dear Father-in Law, Ill make it out very easily--Jack has been married to me three months--very well--I have been with child three months--which makes six--then he has been to sea three months has not he?-- and that just makes up the Nine!!" The husband: "Father, Farther [sic],--dont be too hard upon Poll--I know something of the log book myself--and d--m me but she has kept her reckoning like a true Seamans wife"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
