Abstract:: Napoleon's brother Joseph presents himself as King of Spain to a reulctant and resisting crowd of Spanish citizens and soldiers and is flanked by disheveled French soldiers dramatically supporting Joseph. The Spanish crowd responds to the announcement with a series of defiant exclamations, "He was [?] attorney and we'll soon eject him from Spain", "Though a woman I am determined to resist", and "Yes commrade and for our chattels too if I guess right". Joseph, ignorant of the recalcitrance, wears a crown, cape, medallion and spreads his arms while saying, "For this kind and flattering reception much thanks, behold the brother of the great Napoleon come to reign over you for your goods." The French troops, incredulous at of the Spanish resistance, exclaim, "Will no one huzza will no one ring the bells, if you don't make a noise you shall all fall by the royal bayonet" and "Vive le Roy, huzza!".
