"The freeholder, a ragged Irish peasant, stands full-face, between a bloated priest (left) and a fashionably dressed young man; both tug at his coat-collar. The obese priest, who wears robes, with a large cross from neck to knee, holds up a print of the Devil smoking a pipe, in the bowl of which sits a tortured man; he says: Vote for your Priest or see this picture of your Soul in the next world. The other points behind him to an eviction scene, saying, Vote for your Landlord or see the real consequence in this World. In the background is a cluster of mud huts placarded Wanted Protestant Tenants for these Cabins. Men chase away a ragged family in one direction, and a pig in the other. Freeholder: Sure I'm bother'd [cf. BM Satires No. 8141] hadent I better be after voten for both your honors id would make the thing asier aney how. In one hand is his shillelagh, in the other his hat with a tobacco-pipe thrust in it."--British Museum online catalogue

On a country road, two countrymen encounter an ugly witch who sits crouching on a fence rail holding her broom, her hair sticking out straight from her head. The one countryman kneels on the ground with a horrified look on his face, clutching his hat in front of him. His companion, a thinner man, stand behind him adjusting his glasses. Their dog stands at the fence looking up at the witch. In the distance (right) a cottage can be seen behind a group of bushed. In the top center a bright moon shines in the night sky
