"Illustration to verses printed below in four columns. Six grinning 'cits' stand round one of their number who is in night-cap and waistcoat. Behind is a curtained bed. The verses relate a trick at a Sunday 'dining country jaunt' for which lavish provisions were sent to the Roe Buck in 'the Forest'. The Club went on horseback, butter was hidden in the lining of one member's hat; he was induced to believe that he had 'sweating sickness', and was put to bed instead of sharing the feast."--British Museum online catalogue
