Illustration to verses printed in two columns. An elderly parson, holding his pipe, his back to the fire, makes gestures of rage towards his servant (right) who hurries terrified from the room as he drops a jug. His wife (left) holds his coat to restrain him, dropping a book from her lap as she sits in a chair with a slipcover. The verses in letterpress below the image relate that after a sermon on the misfortunes of Job, the parson told his wife that his 'patience and strength of mind' were equal to Job's, though she (like other women) was incapable of such restraint. His servant enters to tell him that the contents of a cask of ale had been spilt. His wife reproaches him for his violent abuse: "Job was not half so vext ..."; he says: "Answer me this, I say- Did Job e'er lose a barrel of such ale?" On the wall behing is a picture of Job suffering by the road as described in the Bible. See British Museum catalogue

"A design in three compartments, each with its title. [1] John Bull (left), very corpulent, a frothing tankard in his hand, sits in an arm-chair beside a table loaded with beef, pudding, and 'Home Brew'd'; he is approached by three famished Frenchmen, who lean eagerly towards him, cap in hand. He points to the table, saying: "The blessed effects of a good Constitution." The three say: "I am your Friend John Bull you want a Reform"; "My Honble Friend speaks my Sentiments"; "John Bull you are too Fat." Below: [2] The three Frenchmen, ragged, bare-legged, and fierce-looking, two with bludgeons and one with a dagger, advance menacingly to John Bull, who holds out a frog, saying: "A Pretty Reform indeed you have deprived me of my Leg and given me nothing but Frogs to eat I shall be Starved I am no Frenchman." He has a wooden leg, is less stout than in [1], and his clothes are ragged. The Frenchmen say: "Eat it you Dog & hold your Tongue you are very happy"; "Thats right my friend we will make him Happier still" (his cap is inscribed 'Ca ira'); "He is a little leaner now." Below: [3] John Bull lies prostrate screaming "O - H - O - H"; two frantic Frenchmen holding firebrands trample fiercely on him. One (left) says: "now he is quite happy I will have a Jump"; the other adds, "Oh Delightfull you may thank me you Dog for sparing your Life - thank me I say."--British Museum online catalogue
