His mitre is poised over his right temple; the right half of his person (the spectator's left) wears a lawn sleeve and black gown, but in his right hand is an uplifted sword.

"Mrs. Clarke, in a two-wheeled dog-cart, drives two asses tandem: the leader has the head of the Duke of York, the wheeler that of Wardle; the former looks round, kicking the latter violently. Beside her sits Wright, vulgarly smart, holding his bill headed Col Wardle to T Wright. Items follow, the total being £300; below this figure is 200, scored through and not allowed. She flourishes her whip, saying: "Altho I dont keep a barouche of my own, "I've a fine stud of Asses and They're all the Ton [cf. British Museum Satires No. 10638] Come up Neddy's Now you shall see how I manage my Ponies, I can turn them as easy as I can myself the leader Fred I have been flogging lately, & he has taken to kick this poor Devil Gwilly most unmercifully I have but lately brore [sic] him into the Shafts. Wright turns to her, saying, Aye Aye. you have done Wright. Behind the dog-cart canters a third ass, branded D, and ridden by a young military officer, with a letter in his pocket: To Cap D. He says: Come up Dowley! I hope I shall soon be admitted to a more favored situation; I have been in waiting long enough. Mrs. Clarke drives from a corner-house inscribed Kings Road, her house in Westbourne Terrace, see British Museum Satires No. 11238."--British Museum online catalogue

Heading to a broadside printed in two columns. Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany, is dressed in an officer's uniform and seated at a writing desk next to a window.

"Mrs. Clarke (left), more of a siren than in authentic portraits, sits indecorously on a sofa, while the Duke, with eyes tipsily closed, reclines against her, seated on the floor. She holds scissors and the Duke's long pigtail, which she has cut off and displays to two men who approach from the right, a military officer, probably Wardle, who puts his finger slyly to his nose, and a good-looking young civilian (? Folkestone). She says: "Gentlemen you may now take him with safety, his strength is gone, I have cut off his regulation tail, and there is no danger"."--British Museum online catalogue
